Boot question...

Post by Cheeser359 » Thu Oct 02, 2014 5:21 pm

I'm keeping an eye out on Ebay for boots
However, most seam to have a seam that goes up the front. From what I can see from the ref. pics, the original costumes didn't have a seam on the front of the boots. Am I reading too much into this?

You are correct. There is no seam up the middle of the boot. From what I understand, it is not too difficult to find the right boot online.

It isn't. Just look for lineman boots made by Georgia.

There are two auctions for screen-accurate boots on eBay right now:

You know, for the heck of it I began looking for the boots too, because I will sooner or later anyway

Never realized that before. So they changed the style a bit over the past three decades...

Yea, probably no big deal, but I wonder if they make any with the earlier style cut?
