Brand: RED WING Model Number: 9268 PT83, 1992 model stamp Color: Black, tea core Size: 8D The stamp is worn and difficult to read, but I purchased these myself, so it's definitely 8D. Features: Made in 1992, this is a rare model just before the switch to PT91. It's a rare combination of the PT83 last, which has a lower belt position and a parallel opening, and the thick leather of the early PT91, which makes the tea core most prominent. The clipping marks are also beautifully preserved. When I had them resoled by Fukurokuju, I replaced the midsole and even the cork insole with leather, and the shank was also replaced with a new one, so there is no deformation of the sole due to aging. Condition: The leather often deteriorates and becomes tattered as the tea core appears, but as you can see in the images, including the areas that are prone to damage, there are no cracks and they have a shine. There is no core collapse, and the shaft is firm enough to stand on its own. They are in good condition with no roughness or cracks and a glossy appearance. The soles have hardly worn down as they have only been worn once or twice after being resoled.
