Boots, Paratrooper, Made in USA, Corcoran
Made in USA reproduction of the legendary brown leather jump boots by Corcoran. This is the finest replica of American paratrooper jump boots on the market, produced by the original manufacturer still active today. Crafted from performance “spit shineable” leather, these boots are unlined for authenticity and feature internal ankle support. The internal gusseted tongue, stitched all the way up the shaft, sits beneath leather laces, while the reinforced back strap and pronounced, durable toe cap give the Corcoran its iconic bean-shaped silhouette. Built on the Garrison Army Munson last for superior fit, they include a PORON® cushioned insole, a ribbed steel shank, and welt construction with a leather midsole. The two-piece sole—black rubber painted brown—is oil-resistant and anti-slip, attached with double stitching and small nails. The beveled heel, also oil-resistant and perforated for shock absorption, adds both grip and comfort. The original manufacturer’s label is sewn at the top of the shaft.
