For Sale: OT: White buckskin saddle shoes, size 6

Mens size 6 (womens 6.5, size 39.5 or thereabouts)

I bought these as size 6 usually fits but these are a mens size 6 rather than a womens. I wore them three or four times before accepting that fact that they are slightly too big. Which is gutting, cos the're amazingly soft but structured buckskin, old school preppy red rubber-soled shoes. They do mark quite easily, as you should be able to see from the pics (particularly on the toe box) but I got a bag of climbing chalk - which I'll chuck in too - which helps keep them pretty bright (there are various hints & tips on the interwebs for cleaning too).

Measured along the base of the sole on the exterior they are approx. 28.5cm, estimated internal length is 26.5cm. Across the widest part of the foot (sole, exterior of shoe) they are 10cm, internal width estimated at 9cm.

I bought these a couple of years back though they've been boxed up and in my wardrobe for most of that time. Cost me £70, any takers for £40?
If so, dibs followed by PM is good!

Dammit! Should have chucked in a pair of socks too! :)

I need to replace my very old black/white saddle shoes, where did those come from? They look nice...

Bought them from a website called Violet Promotions. Sold lots of 1950s rock n roll stuff. Website doesn't exist now... I bought these when the owner was running down the stock.

Boo! The search continues... :(
