The composition sole combat service boot, or \"double buckle boot\" as it is commonly known, originated as part of a project to create a universal combat uniform. Revised footwear was included in this project that was hoped to provide improved performance in the field while at the same time reducing the number of items the Quartermaster had to supply. In fact, a major impetus to bring the combat boot to fruition was the result of the poor performance of existing footwear during the early stages of the North African campaign. Though early combat boot experimentation looked at new designs and special purposes, the end result was a universal issue boot that was formed by combining the latest service shoe development with a simple and economical double buckle cuff.

Made of Leather, these Double Buckle Boots are in STUNNING NOS condition! Manufactured by CA EATON CO., they are marked as a SIZE 9C, and are dated 1944. The rubber soles are made by Goodyear. Clearly marked, it would be VERY HARD to upgrade these! Some slight marks and wear from storage, but nothing that detracts. The nylon laces are also original to this set. Would make a PERFECT addition to any collection or display!
