these have seen significant wear however remains structurally sound. the rubber remains soft & flexible with 1 or 2 very small areas of sticky wet-rot (which can be resolved with talcum powder). minimal separation between uppers & rubber & significant micro stress-cracking due to crush injury. some splits & tears to vinyl collar. central cracks to internal heel counter however no breakdown of plastic. footbed is good with only minor wear to inner lining at toes. size not visible but confident US9.5. check measures. colours are more vibrant than pics suggest.
