The soles show very little wear and are in excellent condition. There are no pills or stains on the inside of the shoes or on the insoles. There is a mark on the left shoe that looks like a sticker residue, but I don't think it's noticeable. These are very comfortable and relaxing shoes. To ensure the quickest delivery time, we may change the shipping method from Rakuraku Mercari Bin to Yuyu Mercari Bin, or vice versa, depending on the time of purchase. Please understand. If you have a preference for either Yamato Transport or Japan Post, please let us know before you purchase, and we will do our best to accommodate you.
