The soles are unworn and the uppers are beautiful with an occasional mild scuff from storage; the insoles have been re-glued into place and has widespread brown glue residue (from the 1940s factory) to the interior lining where it joins the insole, not sticky or tacky; left shoe has hints of brown discolor at bottom-most millimeters of the lace where it joins the sole, hard to perceive at all

Please Note: Shoe measurements are taken along the insole, and do not have any ease subtracted. To compare for fit, please measure a pair of shoes that fit you well (and are the same heel height). The numbers should match for best fit. Shoe soles may need to be scored before use.
