I purchased these shoes new, but I haven't even tried them on because I have other sneakers. They were stored in a clean place, but there is a small white stain on the soles. I don't remember if it was there when I bought them. The color is a light beige. There is no box. I plan to ship them via Yu-Packet Plus, but because the height is close to the limit, I will put them in a thin plastic bag and ship them with simple packaging. Also, I have a cat. If you are concerned about allergies or cat hair, please refrain from purchasing. Thank you.
