/ v Double the Wear in Boots
THERE’S twice the wear in a pair of Goodrich
“Hi-Press” Boots that you’ll get from an ordinary
pair. No others duplicate their service.
They’re made differently—in ONE SOLID PIECE.
That makes the rubber stronger, tougher; eliminates
leaking and peeling.
They cost no more than ordinary boots. Lumbermen
should see the “Hi-Press” White Shupac; Fisher
men will appreciate the Brown “Storm King” and
Brown “Hip” Boot. I
