{"product_id":"engineer-boots-badalassi-grigio","title":"Engineer Boots - Badalassi Grigio","description":"\u003cp\u003eJohn Lofgren Engineer Boots have been among our very favorites since we first laid eyes on them. Originally debuted in 2012, a substantial number of our staff have at least one pair, with a few folks sitting on a considerable stash of different styles from over the years... Made start to finish at one of the best bootmaking factories in Japan, no expense was spared — from development, to fit, to materials, everything is simply the best, without compromise.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEvery great pair of footwear begins with a good last, and these start from a custom-made last designed by John to give a 1950's silhouette to the boot (no toe bump, with a nice taper to the shape). Wrapped around that last is black Shinki horsebutt, produced at the Shinki Tannery in Japan and selected for the most handsome and prominent grain texture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis edition is sewn up in Badalassi's Grigio Minerva leather, a full grain, vegetable-tanned cowhide from one of Italy's premier tanneries. The Lofgren team only purchases and accepts the highest quality hides offered by Badalassi, inspecting each one to make sure it meets their rigid criteria.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe rest of the construction details are on par with that fantastic leather — Japanese steel shanks, British Goodyear welting, and steel buckles made in Tokyo. Even the labels are made on shuttle looms. All of this goodness is pulled together and turned into boots at one of the best footwear factories in Japan.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you want to go really in-depth — \u003ca href=\"http:\/\/vintageengineerboots.blogspot.com\/2012\/08\/jonn-lofgren-and-company-horween-chromexcel-engineer-boots.html\" title=\"Vintage Engineer Boots\" target=\"_blank\"\u003echeck out what John at Vintage Engineer Boots has to say about them\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChoose 0.5 size smaller than your Brannock device size.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBuilt on the John Lofgren 110 Last\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBadalassi tannery \"Grigio\" cowhide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUSA-made Vibram 705 sole and 700 heel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolid nickel hardware from Japan\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrown edge stain\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGoodyear-welted construction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eApprox. 12.5\" height\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChoose 0.5 size smaller than your Brannock device size.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMade in Japan\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"John Lofgren","offers":[{"title":"7D","offer_id":40785329356973,"sku":"210000037431","price":1375.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"7.5D","offer_id":40785329389741,"sku":"210000037432","price":1375.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"8D","offer_id":40785329422509,"sku":"210000037433","price":1375.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"8.5D","offer_id":40785329455277,"sku":"210000037434","price":1375.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"9D","offer_id":40785329488045,"sku":"210000037435","price":1375.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"9.5D","offer_id":40785329520813,"sku":"210000037436","price":1375.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"10D","offer_id":40785329586349,"sku":"210000037437","price":1375.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"10.5D","offer_id":40785329651885,"sku":"210000037438","price":1375.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"11D","offer_id":40785329684653,"sku":"210000037439","price":1375.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"11.5D","offer_id":40785329750189,"sku":"210000037440","price":1375.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"12D","offer_id":40785329815725,"sku":"210000037441","price":1375.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0352\/5633\/files\/JohnLofgren-EngineerBoots-BadalassiGrigio_FLAT_-02.jpg?v=1734119188","url":"https:\/\/standardandstrange.mom\/products\/engineer-boots-badalassi-grigio","provider":"Standard \u0026 Strange","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
