Seconded. Incredible collection of info in that post.
@VegTan, I have a pair of boots made of Beva leather in the same pattern as that pair pictured. Mine carry the CC41 utility stamp so can be dated to around 1941 to 1948 which is when, I think, they dropped using the stamp on clothing.
If anything, the Beva leather (pronounced, presumably, 'beaver' due to the animal appearing on the Beva-branded pull tabs) is even thicker than zug.
VegTan - I look forward to reading through that info you have helpfully prpvided.
