Pre-owned footwear evidence
A pair should be evaluated as two separate shoes and one matched set. Wear can differ left to right, size markings can conflict, soles may show repairs and clean exterior photographs can hide interior lining damage, odor or structural change.
Direct answer
Assign one pair ID and separate left and right sub-records. Photograph both shoes together, then each upper, side, toe, heel, opening, insole, size marking, midsole and outsole. Record measured length where useful, pair symmetry, wear depth and location, stains, creasing, separation, odor, repairs and replaced parts. List box, dust bags, laces or accessories separately and state authentication scope without using them as automatic proof.
Use this before requesting a quotation
Record pair ID, displayed brand and style references, marked size on each shoe, width when shown, colorway and visible codes. Compare left and right markings. If measurements are taken, state the method and avoid converting them into a guaranteed customer fit.
Photograph the untouched pair from front, rear, both sides and top, then each shoe separately. Compare shape, color, toe height, heel height, construction, hardware and wear. Keep shipping damage and original packing evidence.
Record creasing, scratches, scuffs, stains, fading, cracking, loose stitching, deformation, separation and missing decoration by shoe and zone. Describe material only when verified. Do not hide structural issues under stuffing or camera angle.
Photograph lining, footbed or insole, heel counter, tongue, labels and toe area when accessible. Record abrasion, peeling, stains, residue, tears, compression and odor neutrally. Use hygiene controls and disclose replacement insoles.
Photograph full soles and close views of toe, ball, edges and heel. Record tread loss, uneven wear, cuts, hardening, separation, repainting, heel taps, resoling and embedded debris. Never create more wear to test a brittle area.
Check laces, eyelets, zippers, straps, buckles and hook-and-loop parts through normal motion. List spare laces, box, dust bags, cards and other items. Document cleaning, recoloring, gluing, stitching, sole work and replaced parts with before-and-after evidence.
Use pair-level photographs and disclose meaningful asymmetry, sole wear, interior condition, repairs and fit limitations. State the authentication provider and scope separately. Recheck both shoes and included items against the listing before dispatch.

Fill only the details relevant to your request
Before you send the request
Create left and right records for size, upper, interior, heel, midsole and outsole, then compare symmetry, repairs, accessories and the pair's final listing.
Yes. Wear pattern and depth can differ by side. Photograph each full outsole and close views of toe, ball and heel areas.
No. Publish visible markings and a stated measurement method. Model, region, construction, wear and wearer preference can change fit.
Yes when known. Record cleaning, recoloring, gluing, stitching, heel taps, sole replacement and other work with before-and-after evidence.
Keep the request specific
Fit varies by model, construction, wear, region and wearer. Publish the visible size marking, measurement method and known modifications, and let the buyer compare with an appropriate reference. Do not promise a universal conversion.
