Up for sale is a genuine pair of Soviet military "Yuft" boots. These are high-quality, full-leather boots
(not "kirza" imitation), manufactured under strict USSR military state standards. This pair is a fantastic find for collectors of militaria, historical reenactors, or fans of rugged vintage style.
Product Highlights & Authenticity:
• Material: 100% Genuine Yuft Leather (Traditional Russian oil-tanned leather). It is thick, water-resistant, and incredibly durable.
• Military Standard: Manufactured according to GOST 19137-73 (The official USSR state standard for military leather footwear).
• Original Price Stamp: Features the iconic factory ink stamp: "Ц. 23 р. 10 к." (Price: 23 Rubles 10 Kopeks).
This is a hallmark of authenticity for Soviet-era goods.
• Insoles: Includes a pair of brand new felt insoles for added warmth and comfort.
Measurements & Size:
• Soviet Size: 40 C (Approx. US Men’s 7.5 / EU 40).
• Outsole Length: 29.0 cm (11.4 inches).
• Total Height: approx. 44.0 cm (17.3 inches).
Condition:
Good vintage condition with a solid structure. The leather remains strong. As expected with authentic vintage footwear of this age, there is some minor surface cracking (crazing) on the leather at the ankles from long-term storage, which adds to the genuine historical character. The interiors are clean, and all factory stamps are legible.
