John Lofgren (Speedway)

Maybe I read it wrong in past posts, but I've always understood that RCs run about a half to full size big (which I found to be accurate) - and that JLs ran more TTS.  But if what I'm reading is what you're saying, then the JLs run even bigger than the RCs? And I'm going to jump in when they do a restock…

Rcs are smaller.

Oh my… Now I'm confused.

So I'm 11.5 in RC, 11 in most viberg lasts, and 12 in most sneakers. From searching around the forums, what I gather is size 12 lofgrens would probably be to big. Is that right?

[Bluegrass]

I thinks so… sounds like you might be an 11 in JL or 11.5 for a roomy fit... thats what I'm hearing.

Vintage Engineer Boots wears his Lofgren's a half size smaller than his Road Champs, just FYI. He wears a 7.5 in RCs and a 7 in Lofgrens.

Thanks Scott. It seems they do run a bit bigger in sizing.

I also sent Kiya an email and his advice is to go with my viberg sizing. Meaning a 9 in viberg also 9 in JL. More than that it will definitely be too big.

Friday,
Do u mean the uk9 from Viberg and the us9 from JL?

To my understanding yes.. I told kita I'm wearing a 9uk in viberg engineers and 8.5uk in 310 lasts which is the widests boots I have.

Kiya told me 9 JL sizes would be a better choice rather than going with a 9.5

I have no experience with Viberg, but that advice seems suspect to me.

Care to share Chiba ?

Fwiw I'm a 10 in wesco, 10 in RW moc with extra insole, 9uk in Vibergs, 10 in most sneakers , 9D though an E would be better in Whites SD

[hajduk]

That's possible…^^

I am uk9 in 310 last and uk8.5 in engineers.
