  • Original Item. Only One Available. This is a scarce set of WWI M1912 Russet Marching shoes, dated 1917. This model of shoe saw heavy service in the U.S. Army from 1912-1917 when they were replaced by the M1917 Marching shoe. However the Model 1912 were still heavily used and a great many of them made it overseas. This example is in near perfect condition with complete laces and a fantastic color & patina. They are dated 1919.


    Both shoes retains their laces but both laces have some fraying as shown. They both have markings that are very clear:

    CONTRACT MAY 15, 1919, SPEC #1258
    ST. LOUIS DEPOT


    Both shoes also retain their pull-up straps. The soles of both shoes show very little use. This is a fantastic set of shoes that would fit well in any WWI Display! Comes ready for further research and display.
