PuckChaser said:In sizes "too big" and "too small"? There's probably a reason you have them in depot. The CF bought 1,000 of every size, instead of more in the common sizes.
dapaterson said:No.
In fact, the CAF has information on sizes that is used to inform the acquisition of clothing & footwear. However, the data is old; there's an ongoing effort to get more up to date information so the inventories acquired will more closely mirror the sizes and shapes of today's CAF.

dapaterson said:Not unless you're still skewing the averages
Bzzliteyr said:You work in supply and you call the new "boots, general purpose" the Mk4?
GreenMarine said:Sorry if I sounded off like a mod but I am a subject matter expert on the matter, and will take responsibility for what I have (some) control over being handling and storage of defence materials (incl, clothing.)

recceguy said:Cue Vern.
ObedientiaZelum said:I think we use the term expert a bit too readily in the CF.
GreenMarine said:Yes Yes I do I'm wear a Pair of them now, If I was told wrongly I do apologize. However the Topic is on MK 3's and I'm still waiting on a stock code so I could confirm and answer the question of this thread. :waiting:
Instead of the thread going on how we have 1000's of sizes for dozen or so types of boots and never have enough to satisfy the common sized man. :deadhorse:

'Bout time >
Bzzliteyr said:Tip from an armour crewman (not a supply SME):
1. unlace your boot
2. pull tongue of boot forward
3. look at description of boot on tag
If it says Mk4 then I am very mistaken but I suspect it won't. Please let me know.
GreenMarine said:Mine were inked in so no tag, however to settle this side bar for those with din access http://dgmssc.ottawa-hull.mil.ca/DTICS/SITE/CGCS_Details_e.asp?NSN=843020A035157 granted these use a local purchase stock code they are in the system.
and for the Grand finally.
http://dgmssc.ottawa-hull.mil.ca/DTICS/SITE/CGCS_Details_e.asp?NSN=8430218724291 to http://dgmssc.ottawa-hull.mil.ca/DTICS/SITE/CGCS_Details_e.asp?NSN=8430218724327
And doing a basic computer check followed by a physical check... we have Boots, Combat (MARK III;CANADIAN FORCES; LEATHER; BLACK; HIGH; LACE FASTENING;SIZE 4-1/2-5D to 13-13-1/2F)
There's 36 size and we're holding stock in 27 sizes, and 9 sizes mostly between size 8 1/2 to 11 having the Zeros.
Hope this answers tje question.
Bzzliteyr said:Did you skip over the "STATUS: Item is "Cancelled-Duplicate" (Converted)"?
So tell me again you stock MkIV boots?
