John Lofgren M43 Service Boots Natural CXL
Description
John Lofgren Bootmaker M-43 Service Shoes stand as a testament to meticulous craftsmanship and timeless design. These boots, crafted in Japan, pay homage to the iconic WWII U.S. Army service shoes while embodying contemporary functionality. Each detail, from the distinctive Munson last shape patented in 1912 by U.S. Army doctor Edward Munson to the Horween Chromexcel roughout uppers reminiscent of the originals, reflects a dedication to authenticity and quality. Steve McQueen wore it in The Great Escape, elevating this shoe to iconic status. Constructed with Goodyear welt construction and fortified with USA-made storm welts, these boots ensure durability and resilience in any terrain. The heavy single, triple, and quadruple stitched sewing further enhances their ruggedness, while Japanese-made steel shanks provide stability and support. The 1.5" stacked heel and 6" shaft offer both style and practicality for everyday wear. Equipped with USA-made Vibram 700 soles and heels, these boots deliver superior traction and longevity. An embossed padded leather heel pad adds comfort, while the D/Wide width accommodate all foot shapes. Packaged in a Japanese-made John Lofgren Bootmaker box and dust bags, these boots embody the essence of masterful craftsmanship and attention to detail. John Lofgren M43 Boots are available in a single D width. This last runs large and we recommend sizing down one full size from your standard US sneaker size or Brannock measurement. If you have wide feet, consider going down half a size. They fit similar to JL Combat boots (Lofgren M43 boots size US9 = Lofgren Combat boots size 9). John Lofgren Bootmaker, founded by California native John Lofgren in Japan, seamlessly blends vintage-inspired designs with contemporary fits and superior materials. The brand's commitment to craftsmanship and the dedication of its Japanese artisans to mastering their craft set it apart in an industry often driven by profit.
