Vintage condition: By the very nature of an item being vintage this means the item has been used and is not new. The vintage pieces I source are either in every good condition or in a loved, worn condition. The majority of shoes have leather soles therefore there is visible usage to the soles, the leather may have mild scuffing and indentations. This does not detract from the quality of the shoe but gives it character. I do not sell shoes which I feel are ‘finished’ and are past their wearable life. I hope you enjoy your vintage shoes and get many more wearable years out of them!
