We have a few pairs of these that we'll call second tier - perhaps there is a bit of discolration (most likely on the rear) or maybe the strap is a bit less straight (doesn't really matter once you install) or perhaps for some other reason. The strap pair you will receive (not shown in the photos) is sure to please and once mounted you'll be really happy you went new rather than used!)
A very rare item - NOS Lapiz toe straps that are really early - they have the brass rather than nylong roller. This look like a 1950's to perhaps early 70's production era. The straps are very well preserved and the buckles have a bit of darkening which is to be expected. These are a fantastic restoration item. We have a few sets - the photos are representative of the pair you will receive.
