 Condition wise, I'd say these shoes are cosmetically at least Excellent++ , and functionally they are excellent++.  These shoes were used briefly on two indoor spin class sessions.    Please read my condition rating scale below, but I've seen thousands of shoes in my lifetime , so I'm a pretty good judge of condition.  Replaceable rubber heel pads are about 5-10% worn down ($6-12 replaceable part) .     No through cuts/ rips, or gashes in the  uppers.   Cleat threads have been re-greased, and good to go.   Shoes fully functional, all buckles work fine.   Shoes come with stock blue Sidi insoles.    Please see pictures.   These shoes need nothing but to be ridden hard and loved!                                                                                                                             ______________________________++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++_______________________

Condition rating scale:

*New:  never used

*Like new:  used on 1-2 rides, cosmetically and functionally perfectly fine,  close to new but not quite. 

*Excellent: used, no major condition marks (i.e.  no cuts in the fabric) and fully functional (no missing parts), possibly 1-2 minor condition marks,  not quite like new.

*Very Good:  used, a few minor cosmetic condition marks (i.e. scrapes/scratches on bottom of sole, toe and side of shoe are has minor rubs/scuffing), however condition marks do not affect functionality of the shoes to be tools for your feet,  fully functional otherwise.  Tons of life left in them, but not perfect cosmetically 

*Good:  used, a step down from a very-good condition shoe, in that there may be one major condition mark, and  several cosmetic condition marks (i.e. worn sole from walking/general riding,  scrapes/scuffing of the outer shoe material, cosmetic small details that are imperfections caused by usage and/or came from the shoe factory that way, etc),  however shoes are fully functional in every way.  Lots of life left in the shoes, but not perfect cosmetically. 

*Fair:    well used and they show it cosmetically, higher usage of wear to the soles, possibly one rip of the fabric on the interior and/or exterior.   Several cosmetic condition marks.  Otherwise, shoes are still functional to be used. 

*Poor: : very well used,  several condition marks (mainly at least one tear/rip in the outer and inner fabric of the shoe),  and possibly not functional to some degree (a buckle and/or strap missing, heal pad missing, etc).  Shoes need to be overhauled with 1+ new/used parts to make them functional again. 

*Side note:  white plastics on shoes tend to exhibit  wear (mainly cosmetic condition wear) at a higher rate  then other colors.   Depending upon the shoe, if there is white plastics used it will eventually slightly yellow (and possibly get darker in yellow color), no matter if you ride in the rain, or if it is a fair weather riding shoe (the sun does chemically change the  composition / pigment of the plastics (certain grade of plastic this will affect, but not all plastics), and accelerates the color pigment of white/clear plastic by turning it yellow.  This goes for all manufactures,  Sidi, Shimano, Specialized, Diadora, etc.     Please be aware of that before bidding, and for future long term care of your shoes. 

**Side info:  Well taken care of cycling shoes can/ do last 5+ years (in some cases, road shoes 10+ years), unlike street shoes.  Take care of your shoes, and your shoes will take care of your feet.  A properly fit cycling shoe is the #1 best performance move that you can make on your body  for three main reasons :  1.  The right shoe will help lesson the effects of the foot/pedal contact pressure point on the bike while riding.  The proper sized/fit shoe will increase your comfort factor while riding.   2.  Given the above #1 , your foot heath will increase = your health is your wealth.    3.  In regards to energy transmission while pedaling, the right shoe will increase ones wattage /power transmission to the pedals.   Find the right shoe / pedal combination, and you'll majorly step up your game on the bicycle.
