I purchased this at MB, a select shop in Yoyogi-Uehara. They are leather lace-up shoes, apparently made in Mexico. They are very light and comfortable to wear. There are no noticeable scratches or stains, but I have included close-up photos of anything that might be of concern due to the original specifications, so please check the photos (photo 6). Please consider purchasing if you understand that this is a used item.
