Is anyone interested in black boots for his/her imperial costume?
In Linköping a store http://www.hookseurope.com/product.aspx ... tid=200055
has a sale of three black riding boots size 43, 44 & 45
For just 75:- Sek.

Anyone interested send me a PM or post here and I'll be able to pick up before we leave for Malmö SSFGC

I want size 44 please

Well, well... *thinking*
That's almost a horse-head-in-bed-deal.

If you're going that way anyway and it's no bother for you I could use a size 43.

75:- SEK is just crazy cheap.

(If they don't have 43 left for that price I'd be happy for size 44)

I'll pick them all up (which ever are still there) tomorrow and 15136 & 74210 has first dibs!

These are strictly speaking not approvable for a 501st costume. Personal experience also states that they are not very troopworthy.

Ok, this is what the CRL says:

Officer Boots
For 501st approval:
Knee-high, black, lace-less, non-textured, leather or leather-like material. Rubber is not acceptable.
For level two certification (if applicable):
Boots must not have a visible zipper.

For level three certification (if applicable):
Boots must be leather, not vinyl or PVC, and be exact replicas of English riding (dress) boots. Boots have conservative heels.

So how are theese not acceptable?
I don't know anything about trooping in theese, just wanted to be helpfull....
I'll need to know before 15:00, so let me know if you really want them.

For 75 SEK I'll take my chances. If they're not working out one way I'm sure I can use it for something else.

I have checked with IOC forum... they are acceptable if you just remove the little tag at the top
