Two-tone, leather and rough-out leather, M43 Low Boots
From 1937, soldiers in the German army received a pair of Schnürschuhe (Low Boots) alongside their issued pair of Knobelbecher(Jackboots).
Initially meant as a part of the Drillichanzug (a linen uniform used for basic training) only, regulation changes in late 1939 to conserve leather, meant that the Schnürschuhe started to see more and more action on the front line, as jackboots were restricted (and ultimately discontinued to EM in 1943). In place of the restricted jackboot, from 1940, the Low Boots were worn with Gamaschen(Gaiters) to overlap the boots with the trousers.
Though most boots come out of the factory untanned, the sides of the soles were always blackened and soldiers were ordered to blacken their boots.
March off in a pair of M43 Low Boots today and finish your German impression.
