Sylvia Ballet Flats, White - Size: 22.5 Southern Cross Purchased a year and a half ago, worn a few times on stage. As they are white, any dirt is noticeable, so I was very careful when wearing them. Used only for performances, and I used different shoes for rehearsals and lessons, so they are relatively clean, I think. There is no noticeable dirt on the surface, but there is some wear and tear. The soles are as shown in the photos. I think they can still be worn as clean, white shoes! Thank you for looking.
