They're not exactly clean, but I bought two pairs at the same time and used them for two seasons. I've quickly washed them and dried them in the sun. Although they're not clean, the shoes themselves aren't very damaged, and they seemed to be very comfortable, so I'm listing them because I think they can still be used. They look better in person than in the photos. Blue: Moonstar Pink: Shunsoku (Speed Racer) How about them for twins or active children? (^^)
