Late war short ankle boots.

Howdy lads,

What's your opinion on those boots:

Are they authentic army issue or some messed with civilian/worker boots with added hobnails? Are they German for sure? I'm not into this filed so much but I reckon I saw similar Czech brown boots that were sold as German.
Thanks for all your answers in advance.

Short combat shoes

Greetings,

I will qualify my response by saying I am definately not a shoe/boot expert but the american size marking of 8 1/2 tells me these are no good! I do not like the one piece sole,3 rows of pegs,and the cramped arraingement of the hobnails. These are just my opinions.
