  We determine the $\pi NN$ and $\pi N\Delta$ formfactors from the $P_{11}$
resp. $P_{33}$ partial wave of $\pi N$ scattering by dressing corresponding
bare vertices with the help of $\pi N$ non--pole contributions. The underlying
model is based on meson exchange, and involves nucleon and delta--isobar pole
and crossed--pole terms together with correlated $\pi\pi$--exchange in the
$J^P=0^+$ ($\sigma$) and $1^-$ ($\rho$) channel. The results are very similar
for $\pi NN$ and $\pi N\Delta$ and can be roughly parametrized by a monopole
with cutoff mass $>$ 500 MeV, with some variation due to model dependencies.
Thus the formfactors are much less soft than derived before for the $\pi NN$
case by Saito and Afnan using the same procedure but different $\pi N$
interaction models.
