The only thing that I see ghillie-ish about them is the sawtooth(?) cut of the leather where the eyelets are. Other than that it's just a wingtip boot.
Interestingly, these came up when I was searching for a cap toe boot. Something a little more formal than my hiking boots, but still ok for a bit of "off road" or when an unexpected shower pops up. Going to give these a try.
Look up Corcoran jump boots. I used them when I was in the 101st. Gave them hard use and they stood up well.

Those have been tempting me for some time. But realistically I have no need for such a tall boot.
I can imagine them collecting dust as I repeatedly pass over them in the morning in favor of shorter boots with speed hooks for the sake of convenience. 5-6 inches seems to be the sweet spot for me.
But the Munson Last used on them is a treat for the toes, and I greatly appreciate that they're offered in EE width.
