These are awesome shoes by Roa, made in Italy. They could be described as an all weather, high fashion, hiking loafer. I pulled the trigger on these and they are too small. Pretty rare shoes. I only wore them for a couple hours of light walking in the city, the minute tread patterns are still visible on the bottom of the shoe. The only real things that makes these not equivalent to brand new is slight creasing and some dirt on the bottom.
