Vpep Posted April 7, 2019 Share #1 Posted April 7, 2019 Hello everyone, I was out at a flea market today and while bargaining with a dealer over named Desert Storm Army chocolate chip uniform, he threw in this pair of coral creepers. I don't have much info about these, and was hoping some of the more knowledgeable members could shed some light on these for me. They have green crepe type soles, which are hard and crispy, and definitely are faded from the original green and one of the laces looks to have been replaced at some point. I think they may be Vietnam era but I don't know for sure. Any info would be greatly appreciated and i hope you enjoy the photos. Vic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spike Posted April 15, 2019 Share #2 Posted April 15, 2019 Yes, they are USMC coral shoes. Probably made for Marine Recon. They look to be VN era. I have a pair and the soles are also very hard and brittle. Cool shoes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vpep Posted April 16, 2019 Author Share #3 Posted April 16, 2019 Thanks very much for the reply. I had never seen anything like them before. The vendor had a few other Marine Corps items which I think were probably related to these. I will definitely take a closer look next weekend Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
