                I have always been told there were no ss formally in afrika, even though you have clearly stated these are tropical. Tropical to me means any hot climate, such as Italy, Greece , Etc.
                Of course the question for 1941 is where would ss marked tropical boots like these , which remind me of afrika Korps style boots have been worn....and does any photo collectors have photos of their use around the time or shortly after these markings were stamped inby SS personnel , that is of course that the markings are indeed authentic....
                We all have seen ss Pith helmet runes , so they must have had duty in tropical climates during the summer , of course never seeing any marked like this personally , does not mean they could not have been ss, or marked ss, although one would think the markings would have been stamped in the leather like dagger hangers or similar, can anyone elaborate who has more of a pulse on such ss tropical items such as these boots to clairify the questions I have raised to educate us all on this issue ....thanks.(also photos if possible) By the way...my compliments on an exceptional pair of boots condition wise....super find SS or not.

                  Incredible set!
                  Guys it the time to stop to say about use of "tropical" items. I do npt talk about boots and tropical helmet but pants tunics and shirta appear in mass in many theatres Italy Ozak Ucraine and also in the last months everywhere also in Berlin. Tunocs where produced for sure till the end of 1944. I don't see 1945 stamp to prove 1945 production but it's easy to suppose
