these are an amazing piece of fashion history that need some TLC. they are cristobal balenciaga custom originals (as stamped on the inside) which seem to date to the 1950's although you would have to ask a fashion historian to be sure. they are a really unique bright green color with a gorgeous white trim and unique white loop design. they have some scuff marks and wearing but unless you are closely inspecting them, then they are totally wearable. stupidly, i wore them out in NYC a few times which has lead to the worn sole and inner area which likely need to be fixed by a cobbler if you are planning to wear them outdoors again. with a little love and care you can have an AMAZING pair of shoes by one of fashion's premier designers. they could also make a cool decorative accessory as is! ps. they have no size but i would guess a size 7/7.5. i am a 7.5 usually and they are a little tight on me but still very wearable.
