Very rare model 1884 or latercampaign field shoes no shoe laces withlater tall Spanish American war leggings. The shoes are just incredible , show heavy use.The leather is still soft but the thread is weak. Many places as seenthat were threaded arecoming loose. Possible someone treated these long ago or recently that weakened the thread. Still good good a display but I would not try to wear. No dry rot so the leather itself is soft and well preserved for it age. No visable marking seen but I shows all evidence of original us army shoes double sole, square nails, side rivets, pull straps, square toes, no toe caps, right amount of eyelets even thought no hooks are present so these could be private purchase.. One pull strap came loose as seen but included. One could restore or sew it back on. There are buckles as seen added but done so long ago. The leggings show wear and the leather under strap is weak but you can slip them on the boots as seen if very careful. The tie strings are mismatched but enough to lace up. I have owned many nice uniforms but never these shoes. These would have been used from 1884 all the way up to 1905. A must for any serious collector. Again, I would like to state again that the thread is weak on both shoes and coming loose most at the ankle area to the top. The soles seem solid still but these should not be worn or risk further damage as they are over 130 years old.weight about5pounds and will send priority rate USPS package.
