Osborn Design oxfords in velvet floral






I have been stalking Osborn shoes for weeks now, because their oxfords and booties in guatemalan, african, and other amazing prints are so damn adorable. So when I ran into them at the brooklyn flea last weekend, I couldn't resist buying a pair of the oxfords they were unloading to make room for new stock. I got a pair of oxford flats in the velvet floral fabric. I'm too lazy right now to take a picture of the actual shoe, but they are the shape of the black patterned ones pictured here, but in the above fabric. It was a deal too good to pass up at the time (they are normally $100), but I still think I'm going to buy a pair of the more wild ones, so I've decided to sell these to make room in my closet (and wallet) for those.

Paid $40
Asking $40, plus $10 shipping.

Size: 38
Material: cloth uppers - cotton velvet; leather sole (but you can easily get a thin rubber sole put on at a cobbler to make them more weather-savvy)
Shape: oxford!
Color: black with floral pattern
Fits: true to size, maybe tending toward the long and narrow. i normally wear a 7.5 and 37.5. These give me a little extra wiggle room in the toes.
Listing ends: May 10, 2010

Good luck! email me with any questions ealpert [at] wesleyan [dot] edu
