Bran new Dr. Martens in size 8

Theses are burgundy boots in size 8 US. They must be buffed to get the white residue off. I have a pair myself and I wear them as pictured. I’m told if you bring them to a shoe repair they can buff them back to life. They are bran new with this flaw so review carefully. They are not pealing. Box will not be mailed.
