These shoes are no longer sold and are therefore difficult to obtain. They are custom-made, so the inside of the shoes is also beautifully finished. There were some scratches around the toes, so they have been maintained and are a little cleaner now. The John Wilson order blades have scratches and the edges are worn, but they can be used for a while. The blades have been sharpened perfectly. The blade size is 8 3/4, so they are for those who wear 23cm shoes.
