Wow, those are absolutely beautiful. They look hand welted to me, with a blind bottom outsole stitch and channeled top-stitch (on the welt). I think serious effort went into the construction of those shoes.
They are part of the shoe, which is historically significant, so I completely agree.
Not sure how to date them, but the calligraphy inside is legible so that’s a plus. Sometimes I can hardly make out what the markings say inside Church’s. The cities on the heel pad seem to vary over time too, so that may be another clue. Definitely made in Northampton England though, which is always welcome.
I grabbed them. Minutes before I bought these, I brought in the left shoe on my existing pair of 93605s after it spent a day in the sun. I’ve been trying to lighten it to match the lighter shade of the left shoe. Still not there. It’s always bothered me, along with the different levels of shine between the two. I’ve been looking for a better pair for quite a while. I found these. I thought about submitting a best offer, but I was afraid that by the time the seller responded, they would get snapped up. I actually think this is a pretty good deal given the condition. The pictures do appear that the right shoe may darker than the left. But, I’m willing to take a chance, especially with free returns. Two dayS, two pair of shell (grabbed some shell AE Bradley from Poshmark yesterday for a song). I’ll be selling some of my existing pairs to pay for these, including the aforementioned 93605s if the incoming version is a clear upgrade.Size 9D 93605 that are barely worn... REALLY good deal for this condition. Not mine.

Nice score X2 @friendlygoz! Wasn't the price on the other pair only $65 or something?
