The new Combat Boots by John Lofgren are nothing short of incredible and consistent with the highest quality build and material we've all come to know with his footwear and vintage Americana-style clothing.
Based on 1940's U.S. Army combat boots using John's unique last, I'd take these into combat any day knowing, they'd hold up in any climb and place.
Horween Chromexcel Leather in 2.0-2.3mm
Only the highest quality materials are used on anything that bears his name.
The profile on these boots are attractively beefy, yet pairing them up with some slacks or chinos makes so much sense.
I used to be a Cat's Paw half-sole snob, but as it turns out reproduction half soles will cause you to make more trips to the local repair shop. Nowadays, I look for either heavy duty, long-lasting soles like those used on Attractions and Mister Freedom footwear ... or the king of 'em all--Vibram.
John chose to use full composition Vibram's #700 soles/heels. You may never have to bring these in for repair!
