El Capitan Boots - Black CXLWhen John Lofgren sets out to build a pair of boots, he builds the most comfortable, highest quality boot he can. All of the work is done in Japan from start to finish, using only the highest quality leathers, Vibram soles, and John's own custom lasts. The newest style from Lofgren for FW24 is the El Capitan Boot somewhere between the M 43 and the Lofgren Combat Boot, it's an old school military style shoe with the usual heavy duty construction.
