RAF 1941 Pattern Flying Boots

RAF 1941 Pattern Flying Boots

Code: B20256

SOLD

Stores Ref. 22c/751. Size 8. The brown suede uppers are in excellent condition and remarkably clean. The rubber 'galosh' section is complete and flexible on both boots. The heel sections are quite rigid but this is normal and exactly as they were manufactured. Excellent brass 'W' zips with Air MInistry marks. The original 'Itshide' soles and 'Harefoot' heels show virtually no use whatsoever.  The ankle straps have light surface marking but both brass buckles are excellent bar light verdigris deposits. The linings are very good but lack insoles. War Department Broad Arrow, reference markings, size and A.I.D stamps on the zip tongues.  These boots have clearly been issued but have evidently only been used a couple of times.  A lovely pair.  Stock code B20256.
