worn only a handful of times. very light scuffing. I did clean them but i think the existing scuffing could even be buffed out. there is a conditioning spray you can buy for the rubber—the rubber in these boots is however in excellent condition (no dry rot or cracking or anything.) size 9 US or 40/41 EU. i’d say they run ever so slightly big and would be fine for someone wearing 9.5. after a couple of pregnancies, i now wear a 10.5 or 11 and can still get my foot in, with my toe right up against the tip.
