John Lofgren Bootmaker Monkey Boots is a lace-to-toe style boot. In the USA the lace-to-toe boot is often associated with linemen and roofers, and in Europe they're known for their military heritage. The John Lofgren Bootmaker take on the classic Monkey Boot is one that balances style with comfort, not to mention they're built like a brick house. All aspects of construction and materials were thoughtfully considered. The uppers are made of the highest grade Horween Chromexcel which is famous for it's beautiful aging properties and long lasting durability. With wear the brown core of the leather starts to show through the black surface, giving the leather a characteristic look that only gets more beautiful with time. The mid-soles are genuine leather of course. Using real cork filler, never inferior materials like cardboard. All materials that go into Lofgren footwear come from suppliers that manufacture in the USA, Japan, Germany, France, England and Italy.
These boots are made from start to finish by experienced craftsmen in Japan and the Lofgren team is known to cherish the processes and craftsmanship of boot making that in most cases today unfortunately have fallen into oblivion in a world of mass production.
These boots are made from start to finish by experienced craftsmen in Japan with no expenses spared in the sourcing of materials. The uppers are made from the highest grade Horween Chromexcel natural rough out leather which is famous for it's beautiful aging properties and long lasting durability.
