Notes to answerer

Asker: Dziękuję, już wiem ;)

Asker: Dzięki. Chodziło mi właśnie o określenie potoczne, więc "ammunitions" powinny być ok.

2 hrs confidence:

boot leggings

Explanation:
W przypadku oporządzenia np. US ARMY, w okresie II wojny, stosowano opinacze, które nie były częścią butów, tylko elementem na nie nakładanym. Bardziej przypominały getry na butach, stąd nazwa.

A "AMMO BOOTS" to nie opinacze, tylko buty, które miały niską cholewę i stosowane były wraz z opinaczami.
