    📏 Detailed Condition Report

    FeatureCondition Detail
    Uppers (Suede)Very Good Used Condition. The high-quality suede retains a rich, warm brown/tan colour (often called 'Snuff' or 'Chestnut'). There is minor, natural creasing and light surface wear, but no major scuffs, tears, or heavy staining. All stitching and brogue perforations are fully intact.
    Soles (Bottom)Well-Worn Original Leather Soles. The surface of the leather shows moderate to heavy wear across the forefoot but is intact and not yet worn through to the stitching/cork. They have plenty of life left, but a protective rubber Topy is recommended soon to maximize their longevity.
    Heel CapsModerate/Heavy Wear. The top rubber layer of the heels is worn down, particularly at the outer back corners. A standard, inexpensive re-heel replacement is advisable in the near future.
    Interior/FootbedUsed Condition. The leather insoles clearly show the imprint of the previous owner's foot and some fading of the 'Crockett & Jones' and 'DUKE' stamps due to normal wear and moisture. The interior lining is otherwise intact.
    ConstructionGoodyear Welted. The gold standard in shoemaking, allowing for multiple re-soles and a lifetime of wear.
