Lovely pair of Principles brown leather boots. (I assume leather as there is no marking to this effect.) They are new and still have the paper in the toes but (a) have the minor defects that I have photographed and (b) the heel shows signs of wear. Inside, the top band, for want of a better description, is starting to disintegrate, see photos. The soles donāt have any signs of wear and I really donāt remember ever wearing then. But hopefully that long description gives you an idea of the condition and usage - very minimal indeed. NB the size of 40 is fair as Iāve just put them on and they are fine.
