welshphil 164 Posted August 24, 2018 Report Share Posted August 24, 2018 Afternoon all, can anyone recommend a decent army surplus supplier please? I'm looking for a cheap pair of boots and don't want to spend big money as I only need them to last this winter. Many thanks in advance for any replies Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Meece 1,957 Posted August 25, 2018 Report Share Posted August 25, 2018 Grandfather had a pair of military surplus boots during the war. He found them at the scene of a crashed German bomber. Aĺĺ he had to do was to get the two severed feet out of them !!! Good quality they were. Lasted for years. I don't know what they did with the feet, probably boiled them for the dogs or Sunday roast. Well meat was on ration !!!! 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Rabbit Hunter 6,608 Posted August 25, 2018 Report Share Posted August 25, 2018 I'm a 10 usually but the size 9 Haix's fit me, they also do narrow or wide fit from what I remember. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
