Russian Jackboots/Sapogi (with roughout leather bottoms)

hatrick · 02-03-2009, 09:48 AM

Does anyone know where I can get a pair of Russian Jackboots/Sapogi that have a pebbled leather upper shaft and a roughtout leather bottom foot in size 10 US??

They were available years ago but I can't seem to find them anymore

Thanks,
Eric

Hi Eric,

Welcome to the forum. Silly question, but have you tried E-bay? They often have postwar Russian boots.

Try Soviet-Power, they carry alot of Russian and Soviet boots.

I have tried eBay, front Of Russia, Soviet Power and a bunch of other vendors with no luck.

Here is a picture of the boots I am looking for:

Thanks,

Reminds me of East-German boots, so-called knobelbecher.

indeed ,, i doubt if they even are soviet.

The bottoms are actually roughout leather that looks smooth from wear and from leather dubbin. This is what WWII Russian boots looked like except that these have rubber soles where the WWII boots had leather soles.
