German army trainers with gum sole
#290 02 08 5679
Not certain of tag size but they fit approx. US size 11 or 11.5 foot (I'm a true US 10.5 and they're a touch long)

length 12.5
width 4.25 (or just shy of it)

$85

(price includes CONUS shipping)

Excellent condition, near new. These were worn inside a few hours and outside once.

I have a pair of CP's styled like German army trainers but can't remember what exact size they are. Can anyone tell from the code, which is 290 02 08 5679? They should be in the vicinity of size 11. They're a bit too long for me and I need accurate sizing info to list them in classifieds.


290 - size in mondopoint (used by NATO and other military services) .. equals a euro 45 or us 11.5
02 08 - made in february 2008 ??
5679 - code for the bundeswehr contractor/factory where these were made ??

Sorry all! Obviously my bad. I wasn't trying to fool anybody, was simply fooled myself.
