Ww2 RAF 43 pattern “escape” flying boots. Good used pair of flying boots as used and worn by pilots and aircrew. These boots were design to have a removable section that could be cut away. This left an ordinary looking shoe, thus aiding with blending in with the local population should an airman find themselves in an escape and evasion scenario. This pair are in overall good service used condition with minimal wear. The suede sections are very clean with minimal soiling, but one does have some stains possibly from oil or hydraulic fluid. Both zips are broad stamped. The zips are a bit stiff bit do operate and would benefit from some light lubrication. One does have a small section that is broken off as photoed but it doesn’t stop the zip from working. The interior sheepskin is very nice and clean with little mothing or damage. The boots are not marked but size is approximately a 9, with the sheepskin lining it would be closer to an 8. Overall a good displayable pair of boots, perfect for display in a RAF collection, museum display or reinactor display. Open to all offers just drop me a message.
