These are work boots with a tea core, made in the USA. I purchased them two years ago at a vintage clothing store in Kobe. According to the shop owner, they are work boots from around the 1980s. The purchase price at the time was about 50,000 yen. I usually wear sneakers in sizes 25cm to 25.5cm, but these boots were a bit tight. The soles still have plenty of life left. I love the atmosphere of these boots and I really like them, but I'm selling them because the size doesn't fit.
