****************

These indestructible beauties have seen plenty of action but still have a lot of life left in ‘em.

Some nicks and cuts to the uppers. Left side of right boot has some significant surface gouges (see photo 19) which are cosmetic and do not affect wearability.

Please examine photos carefully before purchasing.

Thanks for looking!
