They look about the right height but not sure if they are supposed to have a buckle on them just check with CRL for tie pilot reserve your

They look alright to me and by the CRL they should be passible

Black Boots
For 501st approval:

Calf high black leather or leather like material.
Free of laces, decorative stitching, buckles on the instep or any other embellishments.
Boots may have a single adjustment strap at the top outside of the boot, with the buckle no wider than 1".
This need not be functional.
Zippers on the inside of the boot are acceptable, so long as they are concealed.
If the zipper is not covered by vinyl/leather, it is painted black.
German "jack boot" style boots are most canon.


For level two certification (if applicable):

Boots are made of leather.

For level three certification (if applicable):

Boots are German jack boots (or “Knobelbechers”) or an authentic replication thereof.
Boots have the top adjustment strap.

Think I will order a pair from them too and another set that I found that look destintly like what I will need for my Agent Kallus build but would have to add the armour/extra lay of leather to the shin for thickness.
