M-43 Boots 6" (Wheat Roughout) Goodyear Welted

Born from the U.S. Army’s 1943 Type III Service Shoe, the M-43 brings a defining piece of American military footwear into the present. Originally developed for the demands of the field, the Type III introduced a reverse leather upper, six-inch profile and simple, functional construction. Our M-43 retains that unmistakable military silhouette with its seven-eyelet configuration, plain toe and unstructured toe box. Built on our brand new M-43 Munson Last, it combines a wider forefoot, low toe box and tapered waist for a more articulated and supportive fit. Available in Vintage Brown, Raven Black and our historically inspired Wheat Roughout, it is designed to be broken in, worn hard and become uniquely yours.

Every M-43 is built on our brand new Raw Cord Sole, developed entirely in-house. It takes the proven design and nitrile rubber compound of our proprietary Anvil Heritage Sole and gives it a historic twist with raw cord, creating a sole that feels rooted in the era while being built for modern wear.
