These
are Vintage PONY Empress Vel-cro 2450 women's walking sneakers. These are
deadstock sneakers, new in the box from sometime in the 1980s. They
were recovered from an old abandoned sporting goods store and were in
storage for many years, likely over 30 years. These shoes are new, never
worn, but there are some issues from years in storage that I will describe below. The pictures are of this exact pair of shoes. What you see is what you get.
Particulars on this pair of shoes:
1- New with paper still jammed into the toes.
2- Looking at them from the top they are very clean.
3- There are some side stains on the sole only from being in storage for many years.
4- Original Box is in good condition but has some minor age wear (See photos)
5- Please see last three photos for age blemishes circled in red. The photos are of the exact pair you'll get.
6- They do have a musty smell from years of storage but I have been successful in minimizing it with a clothing deodorizer.
