I really don't know if the design has changed much, I went to the web site posted for USA Sams and they still look the same. I had also not seen the black boot with an air valve before. These must have been a newer model or a repro of the Mickey Mouse boot. Originally black was a Korean war boot (mickey mouse) and the later white boot was a bunny boot issued in the TA-50 arctic package along with or ECWS items.

I know you're asking about Mickey Mouse boots BUT... you can do better. If you already have some fairly heavy boots that are insulated and water proof just use them. Instead of more boots buy some boot blanketsl. You can pick them up for about 40-50 bucks. YOu wear your boots in with your wicking socks and all that stuff. When you get in your tree slip on the boot blankets. It'll keep you warm and you won't have the trouble of sweaty feet from the rubber boots. The boot blankets will do it. IF you decide you're going hunting in 30 below or something you can throw in some boot warmers/handwarmers. Make sure you buy boot blankets that'll slip easily over you boots.
