IMO one of the best repro WWII shoes on the market. Accuracy wise, better than the WWII Impression boots.

Sorry to bring up an ancient thread but I searched and there's no real discussion about these particular shoes from SM Wholesale. I am interested in trying them out and was wondering if anyone here has any experience with these Russet Officer Shoes, sizing observations etc.. http://www.smwholesaleusa.com/ww2-us/us-boots/us-ww2-officer-shoes

..or should I start a new thread in the "repros" section?

Thanks CBI, I do read good comments about SM in general.. and that's good to know. Anybody got any 'real world' pics of these shoes? They carry the russet AND a black USN version and the leather of the black shoes looks way better IMO on the site than the leather used for the russet. I'm hoping that's just the picture though.
