Vintage RARE Exotic 1950s Black and Brick Red SHARKSKIN B7782 Justin Cowboy Boots with Original Box and Tags Size 71 2 D Mens, Womens 9
These are a 1950s pair of gorgeous justin boots, barely worn, with the original box, hang tag and repair order leaflet it says on the box that the vamp is sharkskin. I don’t actually know if it is real sharkskin or just stamped leather – i have never seen/touched real sharkskin leather before – but either way, these are very rare and unusual and gorgeous. The sharkskin has a very textured, rippled feel. It seems genuine to me, since the pattern on each boot is distinct. 4-row gorgeous flame-like red stitching on the smooth black shafts. Stacked heels – the box says long base, walking – and hobnail soles with round toes. These have definitely been worn a few times, but are in phenomenal vintage condition. There is wear to the soles and slight heel cap wear. They’re kinda dusty right now, but i plan to give them a good cleaning and shine with proper leather care products when they sell. The box is not in great condition – one end of the lid is torn at the corners and flapping, and there’s a general beat-up-ness to it, plus some pencil writing in a couple spots. The tag and leaflet are in good condition with some fading. These are my size. No, i’m not keeping them. Keeping them, that is. They’re for sale. Label: justin boot co.
