Recently bought these second-hand. There are no identifiable markings left in the insole.

Anyone have an idea of what model these are, what leather it's made from and how much it's worth? Thanks!

EDIT: I can perhaps make out a very faint "Made in USA" gold letters on the heel of the insole.

You would be lucky indeed to get $30 for those. Used mediocre shoes do not particularly have any value.

They are fine shoes. Maybe not top quality, but they appear to have been made with traditional welted construction.

Shine them up, wear them.
