I BOUGHT THIS PAIR OF KOREAN WAR ERA PACBOOTS NEW IN 1976 TO USE IN MOUNTAIN RESCUE THEN ALMOST IMMEDIATELY SWITCHED TO "BUNNY BOOTS" THESE HAVE BEEN IN STORAGE SINCE THEN. LINERS WERE PURCHASED AT SAME TIME BUT NOT SURE IF THEY WERE MILITARY. LEATHER AND RUBBER IS IN AMAZING SHAPE CONSIDERING THE AGE. SOME OF THE BLACK COATING HAS PEELED OFF ON THE TONGUE AREA, ORIGINAL RAWHIDE LACES. AMAZING GEAR FOR 70 YEARS OLD!
