RARE 1950'S SEARS WEARMASTER ENGINEER BOOTS


Update:  Looks like Sears Wearmasters were contracted boots from another company.  More to follow ...

Brand: Sears Roebuck and Co.
Model: Wearmaster Western Made
Circa: 1950's
Color: Black
Size: 7
Measurements:
Length: 11"
Soles: Full Composition Biltrite
Leather: Horsehide
Hardware: Brass
Sold For: $365 / 11 Bids

Here's one that flew under the radar.  These amazing shorty Vintage Engineer Boots, with their signature Wearmaster Western Made vamp, should have sold for at least double the final selling price.  If these were sold to a Japanese buyer, expect to see them offered for sale between the twelve to fifteen bill range.

The shrunken leather heels and midsoles, flattened toe box and perfect patina are just a few amazing characteristics that make up these rare boots.  Congrats to the lucky winner of the auction.
