Selling because they are outgrown. They are very solidly made with good fabric, and I don't see any chips in the grip, so they can still be worn. I don't see any fraying. Animal hair, including horsehair, may be attached and difficult to remove completely. I also own a cat. Please be aware of this. A slim child wore these when they were around 135cm to 146cm tall. Although they appear black in the photos, they are a navy blue close to black.
