German boots question

[henk1800]

Hello,

I came acros these german boots. they look period but its not the usual german march boots. But some sort of private purchase.
My question is: Are these boots from ww2 and would they be fit for on my heer mannequin.
Im still learning about german boots so i dont have the proper knowledge yet









Best Regards,

Hello,
In my opinion, wait for the real thing to pop up sometime somewhere...
They're far from issue Marschstiefel and have some wrong points as privately purchased boots...
I could be wrong of course, but IMO they're postwar firemen boots.
They could be OK for some time i guess until you find good ones, but each time you'll look at your mannequin you'll get frustrated...
Better wait than paying twice and be unable to sell these ones as no one will buy them for what they're not...
Thanks
