This is a genuine product purchased new from the official online store at the end of last summer. I bought it because I liked the black stitching, which is unusual for Dr. Martens, but the heel strap didn't suit my personality. Even though they are sandals, I found them troublesome to put on. I've only worn them about 2-3 times. The size is UK8, EU42. I am listing them as almost unused, but please understand that they are pre-owned items that have been in someone's possession once before purchasing. Color: Black
