These are genuine US military-issue Bates desert combat boots, contract number 03-D-0321, model E30500B, in size 12.5 Regular. The boots feature a Gore-Tex waterproof membrane lining confirmed by the interior tag, a steel safety toe, a Vibram outsole with strong tread remaining, and desert tan suede uppers in good pre-owned condition.
The suede shows light nubbing consistent with age and use but is structurally sound with no rips, holes, tears, or staining. The Vibram soles retain substantial tread depth with plenty of life remaining. No odor. Original laces present and functional. The boots include a Lynco Orthotics insole for added arch support and comfort.
These boots carry a stenciled unit inventory marking inside consistent with military issue — a period-accurate detail for collectors and veterans alike. Manufactured circa 2003–2008, consistent with OIF and OEF deployment era footwear.
A solid pair of genuine US military combat boots with premium Gore-Tex and Vibram construction at a fraction of new cost.
