Product description

If you've ever wondered how someone can be so excited by boots that it's called a fetish, perhaps these Swiss combat boots may shed some light on the issue. The truth is, these are enticing boots for several reasons.

Because we're talking about a Swiss military item, we must be clear that the model year -90 refers to 1990 instead of 1890. It wouldn't be the first time they make shit to last centuries where others are lucky to reach a service life of decades. However, the boots we now have for sale are very recent, made around the mid-2010s. These are the Gen II variant made most often by Minerva. You can tell these apart from the previous generations by the single-piece over-molded sole.

The construction is typical by the Swiss scale, which means obscenely strong by universal standards. The laces run through steel D-rings, hooks, and tunnels, as found on better footwear in general. The sole is proper, thick, and stiff, as is the leather. As a special feature, two layers of leather overlap on the bottom of the tongue to prevent hot spots when you tighten the laces. Rather it feels like the boot is just giving your foot a strong hug.

Warranty

When it comes to used army surplus, speaking of a warranty may be a misnomer. Understand, that these are damn good boots for real. Should any pair turn out to be defective somehow, we'll sort it out in our usual way to keep you happy.

Swiss surplus

All this praise is starting to get weary but what are you going to do. In addition to manufacturing these well, to begin with, even these discarded pieces of kit are in really good condition. Expect to stomp many trails and roadsides with these.

It is worth knowing that military surplus boots don’t usually come with insoles, and even if they do have them, they are often used. So, get a good pair of insoles at the same time. For example, from us.

Availability

We made a deal of 3000 pairs shipped in smaller lots throughout the year 2021 (or faster if they sell really well). Don't wait for too long when making a decision; these will go surprisingly fast. We currently have no restocks on sights after these are sold!

Ordered a pair of 275s in width 6 and they fit my EU 41,5 feet perfectly. It's a snug fit but the toe box is nice and roomy so it leaves just enough room for thick socks or thinner insoles. As expected when buying military surplus, the boots came in a lightly used condition with minor scruffs and scratches, other than that they're perfectly fine. I'm satisfied with the purchase.

I just received mine yesterday, and they are sans insoles. I'm a size 9 normally, and I got a 10.5. I probably should've got an 11 or 11.5 because they'll be pretty tight after adding insoles. Nonetheless, the boots are in brilliant condition, manufactured in 2016 by Minerva. Update: these are width 4 -- hence the snugness. With thin insoles and thin socks, they will be OK.
