North Vietnamese Army Lug Sole Jungle Boots Sneakers Used Excellent

A rare pair of battle field pick up NVA Reed Green Lugged Jungle Boots aka sneakers.

These were made by the ChiComs for the NVA. They differ from PLA Liberation shoes in that these have lugs at the bottom rather than a smooth or rope type sole. As you can see, the lugs have little squiggles all over each one. These also have the rear finger loop to assist in putting on the boots.

The original aluminum tipped laces are original to the shoes. The aluminum eyelets and shoe string tips have oxidized. The tongues are made from khkai cotton linen, just like NVA T-shirts and shorts.

The rubber is soft and supple, not dry and brittle. These are size 38.

We have owned only a handful these over the years. Do not miss the opportunity to own a real pair!

We have a page here where we discuss the difference between wartime sneakers and post war.

The rubber is supple!

The final pic shows these boots with a matching color lightweight reed green shirt and boonie hat. These are available here.
