This is an authentic Danner Light. The leather around the opening of the shoe is worn, but it's not noticeable when worn. There's obvious wear and tear on the surface, but it's a sturdy boot, so it's perfectly functional. The soles aren't very worn considering the condition of the leather, so they're still very practical. I wore them in the snow, and no water seeped in. There's no size marking, but I think it's about a Japanese size 25.5. The length of the sole is 30cm and the width is 10.5cm.
