I purchased these at a London authorized retailer several years ago. They are definitely authentic. I've worn them about twice. They didn't fit my feet, so I've been storing them. I used insoles, so the inside is almost new. They are UK size 5, which is 24-24.5 cm. There are some minor scratches. Please see the photos. I've taken the photos to make the scratches noticeable, but they're not that obvious at a glance. Dr. Martens Dr. Martens SOLOVAIR
