jack boots from russia
recently i got a pair of old knarled jack boots dice shakers from russia.the stiching has rotted on the rear.most of the hob nails are present and the horseshoes also.i love them as they amrched into russia at some satge but didnt march back to germany.the smell of the old leather is also glorious.as they stand frim and upright,i sometimes use them to display a german helmet on.i like the ordinary soldiers boots as opposed to an officers because you know they have seen hard use.

Re: jack boots from russia
oradour you say all the shouting i have done about the repro items ,i repeat they are exceptional quality for so little money ,but your atitude seems a bit agressive and i wont post pictures and waste my time photographing them,and concentrate on more reasonable members points and queries on militaria.
