Wabash Engineer Boot in Horween Natural Roughout

Details Sizing Brand Info At the pinnacle of the John Lofgren Bootmaker lineup, the Engineer Boot stands as a meticulous reproduction of various vintage engineer boots, crafted entirely in Japan. Defined by a calf-length shaft and woodsman heel contouring, these boots pay homage to classic work boots with a range of carefully incorporated details, showcasing Lofgren's expert craftsmanship. This iteration is cut from Horween's Natural Chromexcel leather, flipped to highlight its rough side. Over time, the leather will gain a patina reflecting the wearer's use, softening and darkening with wear. Built using resoleable Goodyear welt construction, the boots employ USA-made storm welts and come anchored with Vibram 705 half soles and 700 heels.
