These are brand new (sorry got rid of the box) I bought 2 of these and was so excited to wear them . I bought 6.5 and should have bought 6. I have a high arch and they hit at the wrong spot on the top of my foot. Suede foot bed, cotton (denim) tie not. The tie knot is lined in leather except under the knot. Super cute shoes and perfect for a true 6.5 foot.
