I purchased these at a shop in Minami-Senba. They show signs of wear, but there are no noticeable stains. I'm selling them because I don't wear them much anymore. The size is 8, which I believe is approximately 26.5cm. Our expert craftsmen, with over 100 years of experience passed down through generations, utilize their know-how to assess, manufacture, and create footwear. Each Paraboot shoe is a unique piece. We primarily use high-quality full-grain leather tanned in France. The manufacturing methods we employ are traditional, including the Norwegian welt, Goodyear welt, and Blake construction. Paraboot's rubber soles are also made in our own factory in the French Alps. The production of Paraboot shoes requires approximately 150 different processes. This is what makes Paraboot shoes such an outstanding product made in France. Please handle your Paraboot shoes with care. While our products are known for their durability, we cannot guarantee against damage caused by normal wear and tear, accidents, or improper use/storage.
