  • John Lofgren Bootmaker's El Capitan boots are a tribute to Yosemite National Park's world renowned 3,000-foot granite formation. Designed to withstand rugged terrain and offer lifelong wear, these boots are derived from combat and logging boot styles. This iteration is cut from Horween's Waxed Flesh, a Chromexcel leather that has been heavily waxed on its reverse side for a smooth and weather resistant finish. Over time, scuffs and scratches break the waxed surface revealing a textured, suede-like nap with wear. The El Capitan is fitted with Vibram 430 outsoles anchored using a resoleable 270-degree Goodyear storm welt.

  • Hailing from California, John Lofgren's passion for vintage fashion led him to Japan, where he established his inaugural vintage store, "Honky Tonk Company" (H.T.C.), in 2000. Recognizing the superior quality of vintage-inspired new productions compared to the originals, John transitioned to crafting his own line. His creations draw inspiration from timeless classics, featuring contemporary fits and crafted from the finest materials under ethical conditions. All of John Lofgren's products are exclusively manufactured in Japan.
