Love that crusty yellowed white color. These look like one of those disgusting old pairs of Dunks people try to sell for 1-2 grand on Grailed these days.
I'm four, a guy that owns them because I lived in the harsh arctic. Also the valve isn't for a vacuum seal, it is to allow air in and out for when changing elevations rapidly like when you are flying. The air is the insulation.
The Bunny Boots (white) are actually rated to keep you warm to -60f while the Mickey Mouse Boots (black) are rated to -20f. The military is planning to phase out the Bunny Boots because “troops often soak their socks with sweat while standing in banks of snow.”
As someone who lives in Canada the weather has been -30 C lately and above and I just found these boots in amazing condition at the thrift store in my size manufactured in December 1975 for ONLY 0.50 cents. Already love them so so much!
Do they heat up your feet really bad if you were to wear them inside a place at room temp because I’m thinking of getting these and I don’t want my feet dying
This video actually got me so curious about military fashion, and oddly enough especially for militaries other than the US (maybe because we see so much military gear in movies and other art mediums that it can feel a little overdone, but these are super cool so maybe not?). I can only imagine what other badass retired military stuff is out there which could warrant the "clearly these boots are awesome" reaction. It would be so fun to go into something like a Russian or Canadian army surplus store to find sick menswear, and likely for relatively cheap.
I wore them in North Dakota during Oilfield Operations -28° I love these boots. I have both black and white pair, including Mittens that are designed for the Antarctica with Swiss Inserts to match
Could have used these when I worked a job where i'd spend a couple hours in a -10 degree F freezer. I'd wear 2 layers of socks with wool over them and my feet would still freeze over
I just bought a pair and noticed my right foot is extremely hugged by the boot to the point where there's pain. Do you know if they'll break in with more wear?
I saw a pair of these when I was up in Denali Alaska in this super small town inside a antique store in the middle of nowhere. I was thinking of getting them cause I thought they looked super cool but didn't. Now I regret it
Hey wake up dude!... I rather hear you say that the army advises the right socks to wear with these boots. And if you have to wear a double pair. Not uncommon in the army. Does the army provide insoles with these boots? Or are you just wear them as is. As those green rubber garden boots? And what the right size chart is that measures the foot to the boot. And in what size they come including width sizes.
Whoa! Wild! Morning Absolutely see how these would fit right in with the growing aesthetic. Writing on clothing (especially shoes) is everywhere. Military always ends up producing great wear. And they fit right into the "urban workman" aesthetic (fireman trousers and jacket). I def wouldn't wear these in the summer, but they sure as hell would be a great winter boot.
So I seen these shoes on Dieter Grams and a couple other Instagram dudes and was very interested in their para military style. Thought nothing of it and never even asked for an ID on the shoes cause I never thought I’d get an answer. Fast forward to today and I’m watching the end of Fargo... I recognize the shoes instantly... Putting two and two together, I type in ‘Military Snow shoes’ into google.. and voila! I’m here at your Channel.. cheers 🥂
Gorgeous_Poreless I actually filmed this one months ago lol. Finally hitting publish on it felt good. They’re heavy because it’s just solid rubber. They’re meant to be worn in rough conditions for months on end.
i always wanted to get a pair of mickey/bunny boots but im never sure about getting them online. could you guys give me some advice like where to get a possibly dead stock pair? also winters are warm here in southern italy , that’s the main reason why i got a pair of combat boots instead. thx in advance
Seen bout 150 pairs at the local milsurp store, really wanna get some but they wont fit with the wardrobe 😭😭 might have to this year tho, Saskatchewan winter is no joke
he bought a bunch of them and used them for the runway. He didnt produce any although a similar boot can be found in his CK205 collection the Dense spazzolato boot

Lol they will look huge on anyone no matter what. I borrowed those boots from my friend: they’re 2 full sizes too small for me. The boots are humongous.
I loved the way they looked in the RAF show...but when I saw them in person...they felt unwearable (albeit beautiful). I honestly thought about getting the orange ones. Got the orange raf+adidas Stan Smiths instead. Lol.
Wtf is this, some effeminate hipster calling bunny boots techware? These are for people who work/fish/hunt outside in northern winters where it can get down to -30 degrees. These boots aren't fashion statements or for blue collar cosplaying
Love that crusty yellowed white color. These look like one of those disgusting old pairs of Dunks people try to sell for 1-2 grand on Grailed these days.
*yes*
hahaha man i wish they were still 1-2k
wow back when they were only 1-2 racks

I’ve been told to get the white ones!
Since we will be northern lights chasing at -40+ 🥶

I also live in Canada so it’s really cold
Wow. Thanks for the vid! I can definitely see were Raf got the inspiration for the bunny ozweegos (with actually the exact same writing on) from!
Ole Jäger you know what’s so funny? I thought those were some Tumblr photoshop thing until this morning lmao
Considering for $80 and you don't need insulated socks just regular crew socks best boots for winter they literally retain the heat.

They are amazing looking boots. Saw a pair at a vintage store for WAY too much money but I’ll still keep searching
Just thrifted a pair of these today for half of. Definitely beyond excited to style them and see how they'll fit in my wardrobe!
I wore them in North Dakota during Oilfield Operations -28° I love these boots. I have both black and white pair, including Mittens that are designed for the Antarctica with Swiss Inserts to match
okay so i just realised that these bunny boots inspired the white ambush converse and the design and texts just make a lot more sense now
Hell yea! Extremely influential
I have looked for these in Europe for almost a year now...
Great video as always
If it gets crazy cold where you are, they’re an awesome choice. I’m in Virginia and it honestly doesn’t get cold enough here.
In the winter time the temperature sometimes drops to 5-10 degrees fahrenheit, so maybe these will work as a good winter boot
August Palle Holm definitely. If that’s what you’re working with, I strongly recommend them. ESP if you do a lot of walking outside
Could have used these when I worked a job where i'd spend a couple hours in a -10 degree F freezer. I'd wear 2 layers of socks with wool over them and my feet would still freeze over
i agree they are cool! i think the beveled side profiles and the ecru patina is really lending itself to whats trendy now.
Wish they weren't so god damn hot so I could actually wear them lmao
Wool liners help to slowly wick away moisture and heat.
@@herewardthewatchful1014 But these bots are meant for -40 f or below. So at room temp, they gonna get hot
Love these, they give such a spacesuit vibe
how does the sizing work for these shoes, i’m a size 9.5 normally.
I LOVE BLISS FOSTER"S CLOSET SO MUCH
Where you buy this boots?
Yaas the legendary Raf Simons x Sterling Ruby collection
I just bought a pair and noticed my right foot is extremely hugged by the boot to the point where there's pain. Do you know if they'll break in with more wear?

Yes! They're all over millitary vintage stores in Fairbanks
Could u recommend some fashion podcasts that u are listening?
Yeah definitely. I’m going to do a whole episode that’s just good fashion related media.
Bliss Foster please do this

3:30 It means that he cant design a decent coat and had to resort to dumb tricks to make it appear exciting.
You are the coolest! Love your videos
Thanks so much!
so you’re telling me i won’t be able to wear these ona normal 60 degree day 😭
What do they mean when they say bouble lace your bunny boots
Whoa! Wild!
Morning

i really need to know your intro's music
ye and aus been wearing these a lot lately

obviously iconic shoes but whats the shirt you have on
The button up is AW02 Raf and the tee is a funny story that I talk about in the tee video from a couple months ago
They don’t say bata on the bottom, so they are fake.
Hi there, Bliss!
Did you get a haircut?
Also, why are the shoes so heavy? Is there metal in them?
Gorgeous_Poreless I actually filmed this one months ago lol. Finally hitting publish on it felt good. They’re heavy because it’s just solid rubber. They’re meant to be worn in rough conditions for months on end.
Just found a pair of these at a thrift store in Japan.
Though it looked interesting but didn't buy them.
Thank you for this video!
Update lol went back to buy them!
NEED THEM IN SIZE 13 OR 14 SOOOO BAD! :(
Maybe you could take a needle and punch small holes in the boot to make it more breathable?
That is an idea 👀
i like your attitude
Politicians make money on war. But anyways, I love my bunny boots, i love in Alaska and they're in my truck at all times.
Gonna have to find a pair of those here in Europe.
JobzSuckz good luck! There’s barely any here in the states
Bliss Foster yeah, I’ve given up now, just gonna spend the money on Sacai instead, rip
Do they fit true to size?
want some but i think i’ll spare my feet
HaHaHa they add a TON to a silhouette, good one Bliss.
Brandon Brando they add 6 lbs to a silhouette!
i always wanted to get a pair of mickey/bunny boots but im never sure about getting them online. could you guys give me some advice like where to get a possibly dead stock pair? also winters are warm here in southern italy , that’s the main reason why i got a pair of combat boots instead. thx in advance

You Canada guys would love these tbh
i was born and raised in Bethel Alaska. I've never been to war or watched those movies. I seen them all the time.
my dad had a couple pairs
Lol I bought these before I knew anyone else ever talked about them
Please review the most recent rick or yohji shows been obsessed with those recently
Good call, I’ll give them a look. The Rick shows I like to wait a bit bc there’s a good chance he’ll release one of his books about the collection.
I just bought a pair of these cause I work in -20 . however I wear a size 10 and ordered size 10 and they more like size 13s . is there a size cart
Not that I’m aware of unfortunately 😕
How do these fit if you don’t mind me asking?
I’m not sure. The pair I got was borrowed from a friend and they’re way too small for me
I love the silhouette of the boot but its sooooooo unwearable
What makes you say that?
never thought id see this colab
What abou the fit? Do they fit tight?
Bliss! Love your content. Binged watched all your videos in 2 days! Where did you get these boots, and where can one find them? I want these so badly!
Did raf release a pair of these in his aw 14 (or 15) collection or did he just use them on the runway?
he bought a bunch of them and used them for the runway. He didnt produce any although a similar boot can be found in his CK205 collection the Dense spazzolato boot
My name is bunny boots
Hey wake up dude!...

how do they fit sizing wise?
In the past 3 years since you commented this... did you find an answer? 🙏
MY GRAILS
how did u size ur bunny boots? i dont want em to look super huge on me
Lol they will look huge on anyone no matter what. I borrowed those boots from my friend: they’re 2 full sizes too small for me. The boots are humongous.
@@BlissFoster do u go tts or down ?
yes
i want five pairs of these
Maximilian Kilworth you’ll have 4 pairs too many. The ones in the video are 30 years old 😂
thanks for the review
hard to find
Well. Rubber is natural so...
Reason # 4 is because you know military surplus is badass and live in a cold climate 😅
Thank you for your service
Anyone have any idea on how to clean these?
Bliss - have you actually worn these outside? 🤔
Nope! They’re actually a loaned pair from a friend. Why?
I loved the way they looked in the RAF show...but when I saw them in person...they felt unwearable (albeit beautiful). I honestly thought about getting the orange ones. Got the orange raf+adidas Stan Smiths instead. Lol.
awesome vid! drawing a connection between these and the bunny ozweegos, took me way too long
2:16 best part
An answer to your Gay Pride commercial on your video, pride is the fastest way to buy a ticket to hell
“Made in the U.S. of America.” I mean it sounds kind of clunky sure. But I think more products, goods, foods, etc, being made U.S. would be awesome!🤗
Big true 💫💫
Usa of America ahahah has sense if you think about it but ahah, These boots are crazy
Bliss, check out "CONVERSE MOUNTAIN CLUB" if u wan the look of the shoe and not pay the price of... Your feet.
I’ve almost copped those so many times. They honestly killed it with that shoe
Great content
Anyone know how I can have a size 11 of this shipped to Europe 🤌
Those are not for fashion... to heavy for daily life
Академик уже обувь рекламирует?
It says “u.s of America” because it means, United States of America
I feel like the yeezy season 1 sorta stole the clout fame of the shape of this boot.
THE BEST
Yo if I wear these boots on a normal sunny day will this feel really hot?
Absolutely.
Grow up my child you will never be in the cold to use them
Thought he was a fruitcake 4 yrs ago
Also known as Timbs on steroids
Got a pair from 1985 if anyone need them
Wow! You’re definitely going to get some takers there. What size?
still got these ?
Wtf is this, some effeminate hipster calling bunny boots techware? These are for people who work/fish/hunt outside in northern winters where it can get down to -30 degrees. These boots aren't fashion statements or for blue collar cosplaying
Yes papi
