@Heavy_blue Thanks, man! Appreciate it.

@stichdown-shell lofgren are among my favorite boots. They’re comfortable and so well made

[deanclean]

I am loving the Dukes. Here’s a photo of them in my locker at the pool.

@deanclean those are ace!

[deanclean]

Thanks @Heavy_blue I wasn’t loving how you could see the shaft of the boots under the jeans, but they have sort of softened up a bit and it isn’t as pronounced.

@deanclean when new they look like ‘just ok’
To me but rough out and some indigo patina..

I am totally pissed. The eyelets on my M-43s are coming loose. Looks like they are not grabbing the leather enough, and the diameter of the inner side looks terribly small to begin with. Emailed Lofgren, asking if and how this can be fixed. Received a gentle but determined Fuck Off and the advice to contact the seller. Will get in touch with my local cobbler to see if he can put in slightly oversized eyelets.

@tody woow that sucks! And crazy that they don’t wanna fix it for you.. hopefully your cobbler can fix it but for that amount of money you expect something else..

[Daniel San]

@tody
wow that’s really bad
definitely not acceptable at that price range ‍️
( der Ingo bekommt das bestimmt hin )

[ARNC]

@tody really annoying but my guess is this would be an easy job for your cobbler. Maybe an opportunity to improve on the original spec aesthetically as well as structurally?

[goosehd]

@tody That’s not good to hear from the manufacturer. Did you buy them from one of the stockists or second hand? I’m curious why they would not stand behind their product.
