Kids. Good used condition. Nubuck, olive green, soles a little worn through the ball of foot but still got plenty to offer a new owner. McKinlay’s don’t have the sizing written on the shoe but the sole measures 23cm. Pick up in Hataitai.

“I would like to nominate and THANK our great neighbour's living at Viv Davie Martin Drive for their creativity and huge effort during lock down. They lifted all our spirits with their daily Teddy bear reenactment on how to keep busy. Each day people came to see what Teddy bear was up to. With keen interest kids in our neighbourhood even gave Teddy a proper name...meet Vincent LOL! It's through times like this that such acts of goodness should be acknowledged and the memories they hold forever treasured. A selected few photos of Vincent's daily lockdown activities "thanks Vincent :)"
