    1965 GI-JOE ski patrol outfit question

    Finaly got a painted head Joe so i can put the ski patrol outfit on, the one with the bear on the top and helmet now i've seen em with tall black boots tall brown boots short black boots and one with short white boots
    the photos of unopened one are to small to tell if they came with boots
    So did it come with boots and if so what are the correct boots

    The boots are a special made version in order to fit the bindings. They are short, stamped Hasbro Japan on the bottom, and have a half-circle cut out at the back of the boot in order for G.I. Joe's feet to slide in easily.

    Here's a picture of the exact thing you're looking for -- Overpriced GI Joe Ski Boots -- on eBay.

    The set was popular and so the boots are pretty common and were also used for the French Resistance Fighter in 1966 so $30 is pretty steep.
