vintage van's style #238 ~ US10

vintage van's style #238/#37 native american 2-tone charcoal/white suede black rubber scene made in usa circa 1989 used US10/UK9-9.5 (gum waffle outsole portion measures 28.8cm) very good used condition. all rubber remains soft & flexible. although the black rubber is not brittle it was perhaps undercooked.... with resulting foxing that is a bit gooey. not wet-rot as such, but impression marks indicate these may slough away at bends rather than cracking. saying that, the back of the rubber toes shows brittleness with cracks already showing & visible oxidation to the adhesive underneath. as usch, with some unsightly rubber loss at bends these will thereafter hold up to normal wear
