GIl Sanow Posted July 27, 2008 Share #2 Posted July 27, 2008 PROBABLY! Officers bought their own boots -- they were not issued. These appear to the the right style for WW1 and into the early '30's. On the other hand, civilian riding boots would have been similar. G Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've seen them similar in period photos. Figure that since officers bought their own kit, as long as they were brown and below the knee they were good to go! From the construction I'd say they were period. John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
