Hi guys, fifty years ago this past May, I was in southern Louisiana, breaking in two pairs of Army boots. To this day, still the most comfortable footwear that I own. I’m seventy now, spending my twilight years on a small farm in western North Carolina. Somewhere in this old farmhouse in a box hidden away, is a pair of those old boots. My hope is to find them and send them to y’all for restoration. Best video yet!!

@TrentonHeath Год назад

That would be amazing! Please do. Western NC is beautiful country. A lot of our family is in East TN. Thanks for your service, and let us know if we can ever help.

@BritInvLvr Год назад

I would love to see that restoration.

@kenc2257 Год назад

You should absolutely get your old Army boots refurbished. Even if you decide to not wear them, you could pass them on to younger family members or friends--they'd be very happy to have them.

@ms.annthrope415 Год назад

Get them re built, polish them all up, then lacenthem all the way up. Put them on a shelf or cabinet with a steel helmet over them like we used to do when we were short timers.

@royfrady8219 Год назад

For me it was 40 years ago and I still live near Ft Bragg. Before I retired we went to the brown rough leather boots and initially still resoleable. My last set as you mentioned were one-piece molded soles and I hated them. The material breaks down in the heat and deteriorates. I still have my black German Tanker boots in a box somewhere, and some older jump boots as well.

@j3157 Год назад

The leather collar was a keeper for the laces. We had a speed lock on the laces and wrapped the excess laces around the top of the boot and tucked the laces under the flap and it kept the laces in place.

@1malikalik 5 месяцев назад

Very interesting. Thanks for the knowledge.

@edgy1rocks Год назад

I flew in the USAF back in the 1980’s! I had these boots (or ones just like them). They came with speed laces that had a little aluminum device that allowed you to pull the laces up tight and cinch them with the cam in the aluminum device. You stowed the ends of the laces under the collar at the top of the boot. We were issued two sets of flight boots - ones like these and insulated ones for cold climates. Good times. Thanks for doing these!

@jsmithnh Год назад

You sir are correct. I had those same boots when I was in the Air Force and they are missing the cam for the speed laces. They were there in case you ditched in water. What it allowed you to do was take your boots off without untying them

@Metalwolf765 Год назад

@terencegalati970 Год назад

Speed laces were helpful when you were on alert and you had 2 minutes to suit up and jump into the cockpit for an intercept or strategic launch mission.

Current issue Navy flight boots are steel toe fire resistant waterproofed leather uppers with a goretex liner, synthetic laces, and a vibram anti-fod sole that isn’t attached by a welt but can be replaced. Belleville 330STs. Sometimes guys and gals wear the Red Wing 8 inch safety toe boot too.

Thank you for keeping the art (trade) alive. Like a fool I gave my Corcoran jump boots to a kid in ROTC. I had them resoled in England at RAF Mildenhall while serving as a Security Policeman there. While working as a gate guard we had the thick 1" soles put on our boots to help keep out the cold and make you look taller.

@Herkyload1 Год назад

Seeing these brought back some memories, I went thru a few pair of summer weight flight boots as a Loadmaster on C-130's in the 90's. Still have a couple pair in storage. We used to put a dog tag in our laces, as in the event of a crash, your boots were likely the only thing to be found.

@ms.annthrope415 Год назад

I was army and told that if the ballon goes up, wear one dog tag and lace the second dog tag under the laces on the tongue of the boot. That way if we catch a big explosion, the foot and boot is usually the only remaining part so the death notification party can notify your next of kin.

@MartyPape78 Год назад

@josephposner9303 Год назад

I have the same boot I was issued in pilot training in 1989. We could be issued a new pair every year but mine stayed together so I never bilked the government/AF out of more boots. I wish I had gotten just one more pair of these, however. Over my 28 year career in the AF, the boot supplier changed and that boot was replaced. So I love my original pair - the same you just restored. One of these days I’ll need to take them down for a restoration. I always thought they were very comfortable. And, like yours, the leather has worn really very well. For the nostalgia and memories I’m sure I’ll have them restored. Thanks to your Pop for his service. My Dad flew B17s in WWII. And my Mom was GI combat nurse who came ashore at Normandy about a week after the main invasion. I wish I had her combat boots!! She was proud of that - and the toughest person I’ve ever known.

@Gearhead1432 Год назад

Those are great boots. The ones I was issued came with a sort of barrel nut for the laces so you didn't have to tie them.

@TrentonHeath Год назад

Yep, these had the exact same thing. Unfortunately, it went missing over the years.

@garyburgmylifeandtimes6354 Год назад

Those boots bring back a lot of memories. I’m sure if I looked hard enough, I could find a couple of pairs of those same type of boots in my closet, probably the same condition. The Velcro was important to have and just like your pair, it does wear out over time. Great restoration, thanks for sharing. I liked the interesting facts too. On a normal flight boot we used nylon speed laces that used a slip nut to secure them and then we would wrap the excess lace around the top of the boot and hold that in place with the Velcro flap. They were VERY QUICK to put on and secure.

@kenh7181 4 месяца назад

I had two pairs of these during my AF career, 1991-2012; slow to break in but amazingly comfortable afterwards. The eyelets and velcro collar were designed for very thin laces for quick-donning using a slide-cinch device, where the excess lace was wrapped around and secured under the collar. Before I retired, we switched to Belleville 690/790 suede and cordura boots which had a running-shoe feel and were probably better suited for desert deployment. Thanks for a great video.

@RoderickGMacLeod Год назад

@Trenton & Heath I joined the navy in the 1980s. Both my boot camp issue Boondockers (Steel toed chukka boots) and a later pair of Bates (8 or 10") had the same soles. They also had the same basic construction as far as the sole/welt/upper interface goes. I imaging there was more than economy involved in the choice of plastic welt. Oil/chemical resistance probably had something to do with it. Those boots lasted for years and years. I'm no longer in the Navy, but the main complaint I hear from younger guys in places like Facebook groups is how cheaply constructed the new boots are. Lots of guys say they're lucky to get a year of wear out of them and there is no way to repair/resole because of the cheap construction methods.

@gomezdrhotmailcom Год назад

@PhotonHerald Год назад

The sole they used is is Vibram's 1318 Alpha +. 1318 ALPHA+ This oil and heat-resisting sole is ideal for industrial applications.

@aidanpysher2764 8 месяцев назад

These boots are from before my time, as I joined the USAF in 2015 during the ABU era, however - I copped a set of 1990 Addison steel-toes and I've used them for motorcycling for the past few years. A steel-toe is great, especially when a car in front of you kicks something off the ground right onto your toe. I've ground-off a good chunk of the sides as I like getting REALLY low in corners, but I have an identical pair coming in the mail that won't be suffering the same fate.

@uncannyfox Год назад

Tbh I would love to see a longer video with more information on the construction of the boot and why you are doing what you are doing. I was really curious to know what was the purpose of that flap at the top of the boot where the velcro was. I was also curious about what kind of material was used for the foot bedding and the insole, and if you knew any history about that Biltrite outsole and any other construction details about that boot.

@kenc2257 Год назад

The leather collar at the top of the original flight boots was part of the 'quick donning' feature. The laces for the boots were meant to be knotted together at the tips (called the "aglet"--had to look that up). Note that the eyelets are triangular shaped--that was so the laces could be tightened by just pulling 'up' on them (after you had put the boot on). After the laces were tightened, a small cylindrical metal 'locking device' was slid down the laces, and locked at the top of the boot tongue. The excess laces were then wrapped around the top of the boot, and that top flap/collar was pulled down to secure the laces. As you saw, the top collar was kept in place with the velcro tabs. The quick donning didn't really save much time in putting on the boots. One weakness was the metal lace lock--it was supposed to work by 'pinching' the laces, but it wasn't very effective, and the pinching slider could come apart.

@krasmann Год назад

Very much enjoyed the video. I noticed, when you were setting the eyelets, that your rivet set is extremely mushroomed. You may not be aware of the safety hazard that presents. The mushroomed portion is very brittle and compressed from being struck by the hammer. These are prone to break off when struck and become dangerous projectiles, often causing serious eye injuries. Please consider grinding the ends back to their original shape for your safety and those around. Eye protection is also a good idea when using these as well as any high speed rotating power tools and equipment. You guys do great work. Your videos are seen by thousands. Your examples may be followed by untold numbers.

@richardhatt6541 Год назад

The little force they put behind the hammer and working with the soft eyelets the danger is minimal. I would flatten and grind the mushroom just to have a consistent hit each time.

@j.l.emerson592 Год назад

One the things that I disliked the most about the military was standard issue boots. Because thousands of pairs of boots were issued yearly, they had them made at the lowest cost possible, in the most common sizes available. I had an average size foot, with a narrow heel. I was never issued a pair of proper fitting boots. Custom made boots were only issued if there was a medical reason or if your feet were an unusual size. I usually padded the inside of the heel box to keep from getting blisters. Edit: we could buy zipper inserts for our boots so that we didn't need to lace & unlace the boots to put them on & take them off. Some people would cut out the tongue, others left the tongue intact. I left the tongue intact because the boot would let water in if you cut out the tongue. I probably still have a couple of brand new sets of boot zippers in my flight bag.

Spent many an hour on the flight line as a ramp tramp during my 20-year Air Force career (79-99). Loaded C130, C-141, C-5, C-17, L100, L188, DC-9, DC-10, KC-135 aircraft, and a few other I have forgotten in Texas, Oklahoma, Turkey, and Panama. One thing I can say is that whatever the weather conditions I always had the wrong boots. Too hot in the summer and too cold in the winter. The flight line NEVER had enough trees to hide under to get out of the sun or block the wind.
