I purchased a pair of Vass over the internet. They are new and never worn. When I received them, I found the leather to be in terrible condition. When I brought this up with the seller, he claimed this was a "handmade aging process applied to the leather of the shoes to make them appear 'antique.'" Antiquing? Seriously? This is just dried out leather, right?
When I rubbed my fingers over the leather, little particles of leather flaked off into the sole.
The toe had patches of splotchy discoloration.
And the leather is cracking.
