Trying something new, make an offer to get these under your Christmas tree! Like new, worn a handful of times at most, stored in original bag and box, with original paper in the toes. I may have actually worn these on a dry night, from the car to a formal event, but other than that, these have been in the box. These have been waterproofed with the Fluevog spray treatment. The leather has a rubbed appearance and is designed to look this way. From the Fluevog website: "The Templeton is like The Gladstone’s charming little sister shoe. Youthful and energetic members of the well-loved East End Family, these no-brainers feature a single bow and a line of brogueing across the toe. Like all good younger siblings, they learn from the best, so expect The Templetons to feel as chic and comfortable as the rest in their crew. Made in Portugal Smooth leathers Large metal eyelets Flat cotton twill laces (black) or grosgrain ribbon laces (teal) Rubber soles 2.5" leather wrapped heel with a rubber heel lift Reheelable" The website shows these as "true to size", but like all other East End styles, I wore a size 10. I'm a street 9.5, wear Dankso 41, Birkenstock 40, Doc Marten UK7. I don't have wide feet, and the size 10 was the correct fit for me. I have high arches, so perhaps that is why the size 10 worked best. Sale is final, so please do your research before buying.
