They will last you exactly one year in the Mekong Delta, which is what they were designed for.

Rose Anvil deconstructs old jungle boots nicely

The Vietnam era jungle boot was insanely perfect and simple

Wore that style as a construction laborer during the summer back in the 1980s.

Probably Vietnam War leftovers at the time.

Worked well in the Florida summer heat....

Are you actually going to be using them for rugged use? If so, don't buy those.

Altama still makes a jungle boot I think. They are not the same company as they used to be, but it would definitely be a better quality product than Rothco.

Top of the line would probably be Mcrae. They are high quality made in the USA boots.

Be very careful about where you go to buy those in person.
