Any military boot experts? These came from the same sale as another pair in the same size from the 60s. Only thing I can make out inside is the size (9N) and 1933. No way they’re that old, is there?

Any markings on the outside, maybe near the top? Those look very similar to the pair I have from my grandfather. He served late 40s through 60s, so I doubt they're 1933. Mine have a stamp in a similar location; I can't make it out but it's not 1933. Maybe it's just a serial?

Edit: image search shows similar boots from the 60s, consistent with my grandad's career and the other pair you found. Sounds like 60s is your answer.
