    Description

    Some residual dirt/discoloration from age/wear, see photos.
    Mostly untouched and left in vintage condition - general wear and cosmetic imperfections are visible as a result.
    Most of the original stitching is intact; there's a couple snags and loose ends, some minor spots of wear, etc. (see photos)
    Part of the stitching on the heel-lining has come loose, but mostly unnoticable and easily fixed (see photos)
    Some rough edges along the bottom of the midsole and a couple chips missing in the rubber on both shoes. Midsoles have some general scuffs/wear
    Converse tabs on the heels have some wear on the lettering. It's still mostly legible, but there is wear.
    Residual pink/red coloration on the heels where marker was removed. It's mostly unnoticable and would likely benefit from a more thorough cleaning.
    Midsoles around the toe-cap show some considerable wear (smooth in several places) and there's a couple spots where the midsole/rubber has chipped - please consult my photos for the best representation of any noticeable damage.
    No odors or undisclosed stains - they're mostly just in need of dry-cleaning
    Print on the insoles is legible. There's some minimal wear on the insides and a spot where the heel-liner stitching is beginning to pull away.
    Glue marks around much of the rubber portions, as they were a bit sloppy when they made these originally.
    Labels on the inner-tongue are legible
    There is an expected level of discoloration, marks, scuffs, etc. They're around 60 years old; that'll happen to anything.
    The box and insert are in excellent condition
    Since they're vintage, I can make no guarantees about the structural integrity of the rubber on these -- I assume no liability after they've been worn.
    More photos are available for serious buyers, please judge the included ones for a better sense of their condition
    My pricing is based on third-party valuation and sold listings of comparable condition
    Please refrain from sending me messages that don't pertain to your interest in purchasing these. I don't have the time or care to stroll down memory lane.
    This is one pair of a couple dozen vintage Converse that I'll be listing. I would be open to considering a bulk-lot sale for businesses or collectors once I get them all listed. Follow my shop for further updates.
