These shoes are in good vintage condition. The black leather uppers show natural creasing across the toe boxes and minor superficial surface scuffs, but remain strong with no deep cracks. The interior leather linings and footbeds show typical cosmetic darkening and wear from use, but the sizing and safety stamps remain legible. The original Solovair soft suspension soles are in excellent shape with plenty of tread remaining and very minimal heel wear. Supplied with fresh black laces.
