Very nice! Do you know if it's original or staged?

IIRC, that's from a shoot done for LIFE in 1941, showing pretty much all the services' uniforms in use at the time. (There was even a mounted Marine - I think they only served in China.)
These are obviously Army officers' shoes. There was only bare-bones descriptive text, so I don't think the purpose of high-top vs low-qtr shoes was explained.
The blacks were strictly for dress blues, of course - soon to disappear for the duration.

Do you know where to find the rest of the photos of this photo shoot?

Life Magazine has recently put many of the magazines up on the web, in their entirety.
Google search... Books, LIFE magazine and a year and you will get this result.
