Thrift Store Scores

[sabergirl]

I got these beautiful antique boots at the goodwill for four bucks. No maker's mark, but check out the nails and horseshoe-like things on the sole. Does anyone have some wisdom to drop on me about these? They're comfy boots, but they need a resole. Although the sole is what makes them interesting. Sorry for the crappy pics.

Those are awesome. Dig the hobnails.  Let's see some pics of the inside.

Looks like a zug grain  jump boot.

I'm gonna have to google zig grain. The leather is nice and thick, but pretty supple. Here's the inside:

Exactly what they are, nice score.

Jump boots are normally higher than that are they not?

[Megatron1505]

Not always, but they could be parade boots looking at the hobnails and the cap.
