A smart parade shoe for every cadet

The Kombat UK Mens Parade Shoe is a classic black Oxford-style shoe with a toe cap similar to the RAF issued pattern, making it a firm favourite with RAF, ATC and Army cadets. It delivers the sharp, formal look demanded on the parade square without the premium price of issue footwear.

Full-grain leather that bulls beautifully

The upper is crafted from full-grain leather chosen for its easy-bulling finish, so you can work up a proper high shine with polish and a little effort. Genuine leather also means the shoe wears in comfortably and lasts through season after season of drill.

Comfort and grip for long parades

Inside, a breathable lining and cushioned insole keep feet comfortable through long periods of standing, while the non-slip sole unit gives sure footing on parade squares and polished indoor floors. The lace-up closure lets each cadet set a secure, adjustable fit.

Sizing and fit

Available in UK sizes 3 to 10, the parade shoe suits younger and adult cadets alike. If you plan to wear thick parade socks, opt for the larger of two sizes. Explore more cadet and parade kit in our clothing range.

Frequently asked questions

Are these parade shoes suitable for RAF and ATC cadets?

Yes. The Kombat UK Mens Parade Shoe is an Oxford-style design with a toe cap very similar to the RAF issued shoe, making it a popular, cost-effective choice for RAF, ATC and Army cadets who need a smart shoe for parades and formal occasions.

Will the leather take a high bull shine?

It will. Kombat UK specify an easy-bulling full-grain leather upper, so with patience and polish you can build up the deep mirror shine expected on the parade square.

Do these have a steel toe cap?

No. The toe cap is a plain Oxford-style dress toe cap for appearance, not a protective safety steel toe. These are parade and formal shoes rather than safety footwear.

What sizes are available?

The shoe is stocked in UK sizes 3 to 10. Cadets between sizes usually find the lace-up fit accommodating, but if you wear thick parade socks it is worth considering the larger of two sizes.

Are they comfortable for long periods of standing?

A cushioned insole and breathable lining help keep feet comfortable during extended parades and formal events, and the lace-up closure lets you dial in a secure fit.
