That a great price, but what a teaser; in 5 days I wonder what it will be

I did see a Full Paratrooper Helmet go for $97.00; liner, helmet, chins straps, etc etc

Ebay warning!
One problem with Chinese boots is the soles go out on them real fast. I've seen 2 guys get nails in thier feet from them, its no fun, plus the boots have a bad shape to them in the toe, they are shaped like roughouts rather than rounded like Type 2 Service Shoes

Corcorans are the very best! I had a black pair issued to me early in my military career and they were so easy to spit shine. Best boots I ever had.
