vintage van doren style #44 ~ US8.5 ?

vintage van doren style #44 authentic

navy canvas

made in usa circa 1978

used

US8.5/UK7.5-8 (gum waffle outsole portion measures 27.6cm)

very good used condition HOWEVER THESE ARE DEFECTIVE!  rubber cure/solidification has set in, cracking is evident & widespread loss of rubber will occur. only the foxing stripe area & above is effected & the waffle & friction itself will hold up to normal wear. the first foxing however will flake away over time. the internal toe cap shows complete stiffening which contributes to rubber hardening at toe. the right heel pad is loose but is included & the left will require removel based on curling & stiffening. size not visible but confident of US8.5 if not US8. wear at own risk
