Hey all - for those in the know, what is a fair price for shoes in this condition? When would you expect them to need a resole? Worth a complete restoration from LaRossa? If so, what does that cost look like?

I used to own 15-20 pairs of Classics. This is all I have left. I do wish I bought a pair of white or black ostrich back in the day.

Eddie Ok. Here’s the Classics and Classics Tour...
The potential of this thread has me smitten. Here’s my Classic Ostrich collection. I finally got the chance to wear the full quills last year. Note to self, never attempt to break in a new pair of classics during a walking round.
Putterho absolute 🔥🔥🔥
@Putterho any opinions on the pair I posted up top? Fair price for them? Restorable? Do they even need restoration outside of new spikes?

Putterho this is what I’m talking about!
Which spikes do you prefer?
Is that Larossa golf white available on their website?
Never thought about swapping out the laces,,
Wow that’s awesome 😎
Cant wait time see how they turn out 👍
After reading this thread I found a pair on my local classified site, they are a bit small for me. How do these normally fit ? I would be a 10.5 in most Nike and these are 9.5 but I'm thinking the leather will stretch a little bit. Also what would be a ball park price he is asking $180 .

chefjohn It'll be close my friend. I wear 8.5 in FJ classics but a 9 in most Nike's. The leather won't stretch a ton but it would be close. I have always loved this colorway with the Patent Leather but truthfully since they are icons I think $180 used is a lot to spend if these might not fit. $100 and a quick clean up is more on point if it were me.
Putterho thanks for the heads up, I might pass on them. He actually had them in a lot with some belts and balls so I think I can get them for about the 100 mark
OneGrooveLow I'm feeling a little bit insecure seeing all of these OG patent leather wingtips .... I mean shield tips!
OneGrooveLow awesome collection!
