1942

The dusty boots on the left appear to be Chippewa's. Not sure about the pair on the right (I can only speculate), but I'm diggin' the heel profile on them.

    These shots look like they are from Manzanar or one of the other internment camps in California during the war? I also love the canvas hat worn by the guy on the left hand side. You never see those any where and yet at the time it was such a common style. The boot shots a great as well. Check out 'Impounded'by Dorothea Lange and 'Manzanar' by Ansel Adams. Both books have great reference photos of Japanese Americans wearing some pretty cool stuff.
