    I stopped by a local militaria show last Sunday and picked up a few things. I was able to purchase this pair of boots from a veteran that picked them up in Iraq.

    I thought someone here might enjoy them  Very Happy

    I'd say that the condition of the boots is worn, but the overall construction is shoddy.

    I can't make out the red stamp in one of the boots, maybe someone has an idea...

    Does anyone also have a clue when they might have been manufactured?

    Thanks,

    Artur

    Nice find! The purple stamps looks one in some uniforms and like the white stamp seen in some berets associated to OIF vs Desert Storm issue.
