What shoes for a BSG Officer Uniform?

What shoes are the correct ones (or close) for the new BSG series.
The blue officers uniform?

I'm putting one together...and can't forget the shoes.

Have you tried over at the ASAP boards?

These are very close, and $30

There is also an almost dead on version that is posted at ASAP. The only noticable difference was the location of one of the holes for the laces. They ran $80 iirc, and the difference was negligible. I guess it depends how precise they have to be for your tastes.

IIRC, the originals were sneakers from Payless, with a velcroed panel over the laces (you can see Adama peeling off one of the panels in an early locker room scene with Tigh).

The ones I posted are more like the recent ones. Hadn't noticed the old style cover-ups.

John I use a pair of Bates police tactical boots. Very similiar to what Seth posted. It looks like they where the same footwear with the BDU and the duty uniform.

I actually own a pair of boots that Seth showed in a previous post. I use them when I ride my motorcycle. Very comfortable, and cheap too.

At least I had the premonition to get the right stuff.
