they should be more like that

>>11908133
first picture makes them look worse than they are, but yeah, they are clunkier and have completely different stitching patterns.

poorfag btfo lol, should have just bought nicer bootz

>Austria
There is your problem

>>11908108
>Did I just get meme'd?

Yes, you did, I don't remember the Bundesheer issuing anything like that.

Ask the bongs what the problem is, order somewhere else if they're not able to cooperate

>>11908185
uh, I do actually have a pair of red wings, I bought those as beaters/to wear with black pants.

>>11908198
Try to get Luftwaffel pilot boots.

>>11908198
>redwings
>>/r/mfa

>>11908108
Yup those are not austrian combat boots.

>>11908108
please post the shop OP, i'm planning to cop them too

>>11908108
they sent you the wrong ones or something, I ordered the same boots and they looked like the stock pic

>>11909567
Yeah I'm just waiting on them to answer me back to sort this thing out. I mean, after cleaning/polishing them, they still kinda look not bad (first pic doesn't really do justice) but they're definitely not the same boots.

>>11908108
EBay's actually pretty good about reimbursing you if a seller fucks you over. It happened to me once, and they were surprisingly cool and friendly about. Go to gethuman.com and find eBay's phone number, then call them and tell what happened. It's probably easier and better than doing it by email.

By the way, those look like hiking boots or alpine mountaineering boots, but definitely not combat or paratrooper boots.

>>11908108

They look pretty nice. Any idea what they are?

>>11908187
>austria
>not the solution

>>11908108
Same thing happened to me. I have a few posts about it near the bottom of the boot general right now.

Not sure what to do really. Going to contact eBay on Monday.

These are what I got.

>>11911152
OP here, yeah we spoke in the other thread. I think I might just keep mine, I was mostly planning to use them as beaters anyway.

>>11911097
not sure, but sole are german for sure so I guess they're some sort of german combat boots.

should i buy these

>>11911173

How do they fit?

>>11911158
Yeah those are "Feldstiefel 2" (the heavy variant of the austrian combat boots)
You probably want "Feldstiefel 1" (the light version everyone is hyped about)

>>11911333
i usually wear 10.5 boots, 11 sneakers. Ordered 10 because they were out of 10.5 and it fits perfect.

wtf is that stupid store ?
Can't they send the right boots ?

>>11911192
That could work for lunarcore

>>11908108
>>11908140
quite clearly not the same boot

>>11908140
fell for the same meme, mine were nothing like these either.

>>11913321
wtf did you all just get fucked by that fucking meme store ? Did you contact them ? What did they said ?

>>11914196
For me they just kind of said send them back and we can maybe send you the ones you wanted if we have them. I'm going to contact eBay support and see if I can like, get the boot I ordered without having to deal with all this bullshit

>>11914418
I presume they won't paid the shipping back ?
I was thinking about copping them but hopefully i didn't.

Did you pay with paypal ? if so it's pretty easy to have your money back.

Those are not Austrian Para boots, those are the old bundeswehr boots. I prefer how the latter looks, so be positive!

They have pretty bad review lately

son of a bitch, i just ordered from the same fucking meme store

i dont have the money to fuck around sending things back, why else would i be buying milsurp meme boots on ebay

>>11915916
refuse the package.

>>11915922
i wont be able to verify if i got fucked if i do, and then i wont have a case for getting a refund surely?

>>11915921
And all those bad reviews where just in the last 25 days.

>>11915924
It's the best way to send it back without having to pay for shipping it back.
If you pay with paypal i recommand using it anyway to have your money back.
It's pretty useful and effective.

Read their ad, they clearly say that they have two different boots, one lined and one unlined, you want the unlined.

>>11915954
But people are ordering the boot and receiving two different types of boots.

>>11908108
>not buying jackboots
lul

>>11915771
I kind of like the look of the left ones

>>11915771
Are you retarded? The differences are easily seen. Why did you waste your time pointing them out?

>>11916796
maybe he did it to show the seller

>>11915954
Except that mines are unlined and still not the one from the pic

Pretty sure eBay will side with you on this. Maybe you'll end up keeping the boot for free.

>>11917022
That's what I'm hoping for honestly. It seems like it's happening to a lot of people lately.

>>11908108
you got czech boots instead
i had a similar problem

So since this nigger is trying to shaft everyone, where can we actually get the Austrian para meme boots that we all want?

>>11908209
>pretending this place wasn't crazy about red wings a couple of years ago

>>11918686
Seconding this. I got shafted as well.
Also, how does demanding a return or reimbursement work on ebay? Is it enough to take a picture of what I got, send it to the seller, and request my money back?

>>11916547
w2c decently priced milsurp jackboots?

>/fa/ doesn't know about Swisslink

https://swisslink.com/clothing/footwear-handwear/boots/austrian-army-leather-boots-lightweight.html

>>11919629
Love you m8

>>11920073
I got mine from there a couple years back before /fa/ picked up on them. Guess I can start wearing them now and be /fa/ proper

>>11908108
>found another seller for size 10
>vague description about international shipping
>ask him about the price
>says to text him so we can sort it out
>google given number, number listed multiple times for calling random people, also seems fishy
>tell him i only communicate through ebay
>doesn't respond

i really want those boots but don't want to pay a fortune or get scammed

Who are you fuckers buying from?
I got them from "no-step"

>>11920361
are you from the UK? if not how much was the postage?

>>11920151
I think we were dealing with the same guy.
>He told me to text him about the international shipping
>googled the number
>found nothing
Then I said fuck it and bought from another seller

>>11919629
50 USD to ship to canada.

i'll pass.

>>11920381
anon here >>11920361 did. too bad he is the only seller who has my size

http://www.cissburyleathers.co.uk/surplus-vintage/army-boots/german-issue-paratrooper-lightweight-boot.html

I just ordered from here, only place that had my size. This is the "no-step" eBay seller store front, and much cheaper too. Paid about $45 total shipped to the US for hard to find size UK13. The description sounds like there will be no mix ups with the style.

>>11920438
please post again when you get them

>>11911158
I got these too, but honestly I am pretty happy with them.

>>11920615
I don't hate them, I'd still wear them if I end up keeping them, but I wanted something sleeker.
