The real take-aways from this post are the ANSI markings and heel/sole combination. I featured a post explaining ANSI markings on Red Wing boots, so this one ties into that...especially since these are marking I have not yet run across. As for the soles/heels, I've never seen this style used on Chippewa's before. We've probably run across these a million times, however, but they were never recognizable due to wear...until now. This post should assist in dating future Vintage Engineer Boots.
