Definitely start a WIP thread. More people check those. If you're really desperate for answers, find out who's on the IOC command and shoot them a pm. Remembering of course that they/we are all volunteers and do have lives outside of the forums. We Redbacks are spoilt having such an active approvals team.
To answer the boot question to the best of my ability - go through the CRL with a fine toothed comb. At least twice. German jack boots and equestrian boots are completely different boots, so you'll end up with a different costume depending on what boots you have on. Jack boots are shin height, equestrian boots come all the way to your knee. PVC leather looking ones can be found at horseland for $100, but you won't make it past basic approval with them (nothing wrong with that though).If you ebay 'Tall riding boots' you'll get some hits. Don't buy anything unless you ask us first. Many tall boots have zips up the back, which is a no no. Jack boots seem to be harder to find.
The warrant officer (no rank bar) wears german jack boots, unless you are doing the ROTJ variant, in which case you can swap the pants for flared riding breeches and then you may wear equestrian boots.
Staff officer only ever wears the flared breeches and riding boots.
Shoot MyKill a message as he has both of these costumes approved I think so can give you the nitty gritty on what is useable for both.
Oh. Also start a WIP thread here. You'll get more feedback.

Fear. Fear attracts the fearful. The strong. The weak. The innocent. The corrupt. Fear. Fear is my ally.
