Unknown Boots

[edelweiss123]

Hi everyone,

I picked these boots up today in a local charity shop simply because i thought the looked nice, old and different. I'm not sure if they are military, bikers boots or some hiking boots. The zip is marked "lightning" although there are Austrian markings on the bottom. They have sheep skin lining and a leather tag inside which you can see the markings on. The boots almost look like they may have been resoled at some point, but again, i am no expert.

I looked up flying boots (optimistic i know) but there seem to be too many differences although i may be corrected (optimistic again i know).

Does anyone have any information/suggestions on these?

Thanks in advance

Vicky

Are they Austrian? Look like m/cycle boots to me. These might be better in another section.
