AUTHENTIC 10TH MOUNTAIN DIVISION SNOWSHOES
#47046 $295.00
In the winter of 1945, the 10th Mountain Division traversed the Alps, breaking the German lines and helping pave the way for Allied victory in Italy. These are the very snowshoes commissioned by Washington D.C., made in the USA and sent overseas with said division. Each pair is a piece of history, crafted of ash and rawhide, stamped with the manufacturer's name and date, and laced with the original leather bindings. After the war, the 'shoes languished in a barn in Turkey for more than 50 years. Now we offer them in a limited edition, each accompanied by a certificate of authenticity. Approx. 13"W x 28"L.

Our Product Story

These historical snowshoes were made in America then sent to Europe on ships with the elite 10th Mountain troops starting in December 1944. After the war the shoes were stored in a barn in Turkey where they remained until 2002 when they were returned to the U.S. Consequently, they were the only snowshoes manufactured during the war years.
