BOOTS

The original boots where black Chelsea (Jodhpur) boots that were painted white for the movie. If you look at screen captures you can see where the paint has been scraped off in places.

CRL

The CRL for stormtrooper boots is as follows:
* Boots. These must be white leather or leather like, above ankle, with a flat sole, with small U-shaped elastic sections on both sides of the ankle. Jodhpur-type boots or an equivalent style. No buckles or laces. Elvis or mariachi boots are not acceptable.

Note that some makers use patent instead of flat leather and this is OK, though if you want true screen accuracy they will be flat white.

Also note that for the Stormtrooper Commander costume the boots must include proper blue striping per the visual reference for that costume. Also, the boots should have a flat black sole and not knobby or have a large heel (e.g. disco boots).

* Note : CABoots are not entirely accurate as they have a seam in front, and may some day no longer be deemed acceptable. They also have a "smell" during their break in period.
