I believe I purchased this almost 20 years ago. I bought it at a store that carries Hollywood Ranch Market and Blue Blue. I think it was a product that remade a bag into shoes. Sorry if I'm mistaken. The rust-like color on the toe is from when I bought it. The number 2 is the same. Although it's been quite a while, it's been stored indoors, so it's still in like-new condition and can still be worn. I think it's a very rare item. It's very cool, but I couldn't pull it off, so I'd love for a stylish guy to wear it!
