this isn't exactly /k/ related, but I figure one of you would know. I'm looking for somewhere to buy milsurp boots, specifically pic related and vibram tread patterned jungle boots. all of the places I've found offer them in babbyfoot sizes, and ebay has been pretty shit too.
also why are altama so stingy with their fucking boots? are there any other brands out there making jungle boots that aren't chink shit?

Bates. Amazon. GG.

I'll look into bates, but amazon mostly just has cheap chinese brands. They've got some altamas, but most of them are in really small (6 and down) sizes. What do you mean by GG?

I don't think they make new jungle boots anymore. Plus existing stocks got given to Latin American countries as military aid.

Altama's still making a version them, at least according to this vid, but they only sell limited quantities because muh mil contract

Buy civilian hiking boots as they are infinitely better made and will not destroy your feet. I have no idea why anyone would ever want surplus footwear.

OP, careful with >>34858398 and

Bates are garbage and last about 6 months before you need to replace them.
Belleville probably makes some black leather/nylon combat boots. Belleville makes good shit.
Check Amazon.
