y There's one rubber boot
that has “made good"
in Alaska, and that’s the
Goodrich
HIPRESS
White Boot
“With the Red-Line ’round the Top”
You know that when a hoot comes in and
simply sweeps the whole country like
“IMPRESS” has done, it’s GOT to be
SOMETHING UNUSUAL.
White Goodrich ** 11 [PRESS** Boots actually wear
longer than iron or .steel! You don't have to half
sole them with leather—they far outwear hob
nailed leather soles. The reason for this unusual service is that
“HIPRESS” are constructed by an entirely new process—fifty years
ahead of the old.
Made of the same tough rubber thnt goes into Goodrich Auto 1 ires—welded
together under enormous pressure INTO ONE SOLID PIECE!
Nothing to come apart—they can’t leak, peel, crack or split! They’re comfort
able, too—shaped to the foot while it’s working. We promise that once you start
wearing White *’HI PRESS’* you’ll never be satisfied with anything else. And
remember—it has a ltcd-Line ’round the Top.
DEALERS—Write at once for samples and price#.
