    Description

    Some residual dirt/discoloration from age/wear, see photos.
    Mostly untouched and left in vintage condition.
    Very minimal wear and dirt on the soles
    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. Both tabs have some small chipped spots below the foxing stripe.
    No odors or undisclosed stains
    Print on the insoles is legible. I believe this is a rarer variation of the insole logo. There's wear on the insides, though minimal.
    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, some residual markings where a name was once written - but I think it's mostly been removed
    Laces have been cut at the ends
    They're in very good vintage condition. There is discoloration, marks, scuffs, etc. They're around 60 years old; that'll happen to anything.
    The box is in good condition, though rough at a couple edges
    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.
