- Military gear is usually cut roomy for layering and movement.
- If you’re between sizes, go down for a closer fit or up for layering.
- Example: 5'11" tall with 40" chest → 180/104 (Large).
AKU Pilgrim GTX Boots – Grade B – Genuine British Army Issue (Brown)
Vibram® Sole | GORE-TEX® Lining | High-Breathability AIR 8000®
Grade B – Budget AKU Pilgrims at £20
Genuine British Army AKU Pilgrim GTX boots for a fraction of the usual price. These Grade B pairs are issued surplus that have seen more service than our standard used stock – expect heavier wear to the suede and more wear on the sole. They're still usable and still the same lightweight Italian-made boot that's been a favourite with British forces. A proper bargain for work, walking, airsoft, festivals or a spare pair for the van.
What to Expect from Grade B
More use, more wear: Noticeable scuffs, marks and rubbing to the suede and fabric, with more tread wear on the sole than our standard used pairs.
Still usable: Checked over and still fit for wear – plenty of life left for the price.
Laces: May or may not come with laces.
Waterproofing: As with any well-used boot, we can't guarantee the GORE-TEX lining is still fully waterproof.
Sizing: UK sizes, usually hand-marked on the boot (M = medium fit, L = wide fit).
Every pair is individually used surplus, so wear will vary from pair to pair. Photos show a typical Grade B example.
Key Features
GORE-TEX® Performance Comfort lining: Waterproof, breathable membrane lining.
AIR 8000® Upper: AKU's highly breathable upper fabric, great in warmer conditions.
Vibram® Foura Outsole: Deep lugs for grip on mud, rock and scree, with a climbing zone at the toe.
IMS (Internal Midsole System): Helps cushion impact and stop the foot sliding inside the boot.
Lightweight: Approx. 600g per boot.
