Vintage 70s Eaton's Exotic Oxhide Wingtips, Made in England, US Men's 10.5 E

Vintage 70s Eaton's Sanitized leather wingtip derby, men's size 10.5 E (wide). Hand-crafted in England by Cheaney Shoes, using beautiful natural "prairie oxhide" leather with Goodyear-welted double leather soles. These high quality shoes are meant to last a lifetime and have already proven it. The 45-year-old patina on these is outstanding, so I've conditioned the shoes but avoided deep cleaning. These can keep the old wax patina for years to come, or can be cleaned to the original medium brown if desired. EUC. Recently professionally detailed, the uppers have exquisite exotic texture, with no cracks or major scratches (see pics). Rubber heels are a little worn, but the premium leather soles have a lot of life left before they'll need a re-sole from a cobbler. They are conditioned but not polished, so the pics show the true condition and color of the leather. Shoes come cleaned, conditioned and ready to wear. Shoe trees not included.
