[bl@ster]

I didn't find a suitable WW1 boot thread, so I started one. Post your WW1 boots here!

I just ordered these raw leather US M1904 Marching Shoe from What Price Glory.

You can find the boots here to purchase:

Those are some sharp boots. I guess they were kind of like the service shoes of the time? Let us know how they fit and all. I may like to get a pair myself.

Here is mine about a few time wear. The Marching Shoes are made from good saddle Leather. The Leather Soles are a bit thin for every day wear on modern streets. I added a rubber sole and a insole. Its a unique looking Shoe but for a few $ more you can buy a more comfortable Red Wing. The other is a british WWI Shoe from Civil war Boots.

Just got my pair of those WWI British boots from Tom Lattimore/Civil War Boots, and I am anxious to break them in. They look very sturdy and the hobnails are well done.

Tom Mattimore makes an awesome boot. Well worth the price. Your feet will thank you and you'll look good to boot.
