sale IS FOR A:WWII US ARMY INFANTRY COMBAT FIELD "ROUGH OUT" SERVICE BOOTS-SIZEUS: 9EURO:52In the Fall of 1942, the US Army Quartermaster developed the "Type III" service shoe. The new boots looked very similar to the ones issued during the First World War. The most obvious change from the previous models was the leather being turned flesh side out, which was more water repellent, especially once dubbing was applied. Most had a full rubber sole, although some were made with hobnails. These are reproductions of first production batch of the new shoes. The toe caps and riveted stays were dropped from the specifications in the Summer of 1943, meaning only those Type III's produced in the first 6 months had them. Originals examples of this pattern boot are now extremely hard to come by as most were issued and worn out during the War.
