unworn..... HOWEVER THE RUBBER FIRST FOXING HAS CURED/SOLIDIFIED & WILL CRACK! only the first foxing which meets the green uppers is affected. the bumper, friction & waffles are unaffected & flexible. hairline cracking already shows at the toes & upon bending will crack & chip away. due to these having low foxing & no foxing stripe i forsee these being an easy rubber repair in future once i perfect the technique.... & have priced accordingly. the vinyl heel inserts have stiffened & curled & will require re-glue or removal to avoid discomfort. the box is of correct era however does not show the correct spec/size but is included. the birth certificate may have been for the prior pair however i estimate the date to be be accurate. some wet rot shows on the left shoe which remains sticky. talcum powder can dry this up other wise dirt/dust upon wear. wear at own risk..... & i forsee unsightly loss of rubber at bends if not repaired accordingly.
