Hey, was wondering if anyone could give me some more info on this pair of engineer boots. Year, manufacturer, etc.

There doesn’t seem to be any branding or size markings anywhere.

TIA!

They're Biltrite like it's imprinted on the outsole. Also, the stitching on the edges of the outsole makes me think they're hand made, and by the overrall construction they could be from the 80's

I see. I didn’t know biltrite actually made boots, I thought they only supplied and manufactured outsoles. Thanks.

If there's no other branding, this could be one of the few instances where biltrite produced shoes. But you're right, they could be from another manufacturer. The details look similar to some of the red wing engineer boots
