Yeah, the design in which it has no ventilation ports on the boot mean water sits in the boot, leading to many issues, and the construction of the boots were not particularly high especially compared to the US Jungle boots which were miles better and advanced to the British Jungle boots.
Just note that the camera seems to show the colours which are slightly off compared to in person, also here is a link to a video of a short documentary covering British troops in Borneo during the 1960s, which is a great reference as well as interesting.>>> th-cam.com/video/8Va9QLqCZRo/w-d-xo.htmlsi=vWU7y2UispSb5dl-

Interesting points about the boots. Canvas webbing, hard be beat for comfort.

Great video, Good bit of kit the old '44 pattern webbing, the Canteens were popular with troops well after the 58' bottle were issued.
Yes the 44' pattern water bottle and cup were used even by SAS for years after they were first introduced.
I had a 44 pattern water bottle pouch cup back in the 80s and 90s
@@steveforster9764 Yeah they were popular among troops as they're far more practical over 58' cup and bottle
Nice video, helpful for references : )
Thanks : )
