British and South African soldiers had light, sand-colored suede boots with crepe soles made in the Khan el-Khalili bazaar – a practical alternative to heavy military footwear in North Africa.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eNathan Clark, a descendant of the Clarks shoemaking family, discovered these boots while serving in Burma. After returning home, he adopted the idea and developed it into the Clarks Desert Boot. He introduced the model at the Chicago Shoe Fair in 1949, and it was officially launched on the market in 1950.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe LK-019 translates this early desert boot silhouette into a robust version made in Japan using Japanese suede. The construction is significantly more elaborate than that of classic desert boots: stitch-down, double and partially triple stitching, a steel shank in the shaft, and a padded leather footbed meet a Japanese crepe rubber sole.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLot No. LK-019 Desert Boot Sand \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMade in Japan\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eJapanese Suede Uppers\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eJapanese Leather Lining\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eColor: Sand\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eStitch-down construction\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDouble stitching\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHeel: approx. 3.2 cm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eShaft height: approx. 9.5 cm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eJapanese steel shank\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eJapanese crepe rubber sole with heel\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\n\n\u003cspan\u003ePadded leather insole\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLast: John Lofgren 140 last\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWidth = E \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"John Lofgren Bootmaker","offers":[{"title":"US 7.5 \/ EU 40,5","offer_id":58623313576317,"sku":"248532","price":577.68,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"US 8 \/ EU 41","offer_id":58623313609085,"sku":"248549","price":577.68,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"US 8.5 \/ EU 41,5","offer_id":58623313641853,"sku":"248556","price":577.68,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"US 9 \/ EU 42","offer_id":58623313674621,"sku":"248563","price":577.68,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"US 9.5 \/ EU  42,5","offer_id":58623313707389,"sku":"248570","price":577.68,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"US 10 \/ EU 43","offer_id":58623313740157,"sku":"248587","price":577.68,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"US 10.5 \/ EU 43,5","offer_id":58623313772925,"sku":"248594","price":577.68,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"US 11 \/ EU 44","offer_id":58623313805693,"sku":"248600","price":577.68,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0793\/1822\/1117\/files\/john-lofgren-lk-019-desert-boots-sand_DSC6373.jpg?v=1789034010","url":"https:\/\/www.burgundschild.com\/en\/products\/lk-019-desert-boots-sand","provider":"Burg \u0026 Schild","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
