Opinion on boots

[Soldat de Fer]

Hi folks thanks for responding to this thread but please gentlemen keep it cool .

I´m not an expert on the subject and that is why I seek help and opinions on this pair. They are very worn and I can´t seam to find any markings but to me they have German features like the steel cap in the front of the boot and with the straps inside?


Here is a few more pictures of the boots. What apears like a marking is only a scratch

Cheers

Hello Lassi
Thanks for posting extra pictures. The damages actualy looked like a stamp in the first picture.
These boots are German and period ,this is why : the "erzast" cloth covered leather was only used by the German pre 1945 ,after the war ,they used leather. and you find that type of fake leather mainly in privatly purchased boots (shoe maker had a hard time getting leather ,has everything was given to the army first).
Shame about the holes in the bottoms ,you might be able to "restore " it .
Best Regards
