Here is a description by A Continuous Lean on how these classic moccasin-style loafers are made:

The leather uppers are incredible; they appear new and will readily mold to the feet of the first person to start wearing them. These sat in somebody's closet for 30-40 years. The only evidence of wear to the leather is some very slight wrinkling at the bend just behind the toes.

These are fully leather lined. The interior of the shoes shows little or no evidence of wear. The footbed shows no impression or indentation and the full leather lining is very clean. There is a small handwritten "10 1.2" on the inside of one shoe.

The outsoles suggest they have been worn maybe three to five times, maximum. There is a very small ballpoint pen scribble on the bottom outsole of one shoe.
