    Army boots, Danish m/58. Which do you use?

    Clifton: Yes, they are double stitched as you can see on the picture from the kitchen. The leather is really good, so not an issue getting them resoled. Edward: Great story! I do know about the Swedish surplus ones. They look a bit like the Danish from the same era but the Danish model has a...

    Army boots, Danish m/58. Which do you use?

    That's great! The boots however are after a 1923 pattern en evolved. The uniform is also after a British pattern 1937, but in this edition there was American gear, yes. Helmet, shovel and so on and of course the infamous Garand m-1 called M50 in Denmark. My dad was in the army in '72-'73 and...

    The BORSALINO BROTHERHOOD

    Thanks a lot for the answers, guys! I did take it down to Petitgas, the world's second oldest hat shop, 1857, located here in Copenhagen. They have sold Borsalino since 1872. He thought it was around 40 years old. I bought it at my favorite thrift shop for around 30 USD so I'm quite happy. I'll...
