The size and the style match with some period pics and although they are not exactly what I was after, I took them. They resemble the GJ boots a bit but they are kid size. Opinions? I think they will look great on my winter uniform mannequin

Lots of HJ used "non regulation" footwear. Period photos definetly support this. I'm not any sort of expert but as long as they are period I think they would be fine.
 
seem ok to me, use them unther a manequin and see what it gives. If you don't like it, you can still resell them...
 
Yep. I agree with Darin. There was official RZM footwear for the HJ, DJ, BDM and JM from 1936 but it's clear from photos that not all used it. As long as the boots are from the period then they would be legitimate for a display.
 
Just as a footnote to the 1936 regulations here's a 1937 advertisement I came across for the Seuwen Brothers factory showing their RZM manufacturer number L7 (leather - footwear) 51 (Gebr. Seuwen) and the range of shoes produced.
