Club Obi Wan

Hi guys

As a resident of the UK and a big gear head i was looking for some Aldens and found them to be too expensive. As an alternative I have bought a pair of Timberland Workaday boots. here are some picts - I'd welcome any comments you guys may have. I know they are not SA but i reckon they do a job.

Those soles actually look pretty good - I like them better than the clunky looking vibram soles I have seen on the 64's. I think they are Indyesque enough! Good find.

Good find. I really like Timberland's. They look pretty good and much more palatable on the bank account!

I have Timberlands too. They are very comfy and you can change their color easily. You can also glue a few wooden cylinders inside the heel holes to harden them.

Where do you find them? I did a web search and couldn't find them.

available on the bay under fashion footwear - i paid around 70 $US

My new finding:





Theese are exact copy of American II WW infantry boots. Mady in Germany by STURM. As far as I am concerned - strong and solid.

Ooo! I like those STURMs!

Those are all great looking boots, I went with the Irish setter wingshooter by Redwings.

Do you have a web address for STRUM?

I think I would prefer them than Aldens

Regards,

They sell wholesale only.

Perhaps you should try to contact a few IIWW reenactment groups or military shops in US.
STORM is a popular and high quality reenactment trade-mark in Europe.

Atthefront has good repro boots afaik, I can't remember where they get them though...

These look like Sturms:
