There is no physical wear whatsoever, inside or outside the shoe. I haven't even worn these out of the house. I am selling because when I tried them on I realized I don't love the pointed toe silhouette on me. These are the "Patricia" shoe and they're currently $55 on DSW and $25 on Zappos so I've reflected that in the price. They're really cute I just want them to find a home where they'll get some wear!
