Nice, but clearly not NIB. I hate when sellers misrepresent like this. Still could end up being a nice bargain for someone.
I'm a perfect 11.5 D on the AE 5 last. Not sure if these would be too big. Worth a shot? I guess we'll see how high the price goes.
Sure, you can use that sole oil for $35 a bottle or just use Kiwi Mink Oil for $3. I've been rubbing it into the leather soles of my shoes for 40 years. Perhaps 2-3 times a year. Even if you don't want to use it on the shoe itself it's good to help waterproof the leather soles and keep them supple.Sure, but most cobblers butcher the leather sole before gluing the Topy on.
Remove the Topy and you have a few millimeters off the bottom of the sole plus penetration of glue into the leather.
It is also impossible to tell whether or not the "cobbler" has disturbed the stitching because the Topy is glued over it.
This is the perfect way to turn a premium $850 shoe into a $300 special. The "cobbler" who did this should be taken out into a back alley and shot!
A real mess.
Leather soles need a good dressing of "Ledersohlenöl" to prepare them for wear if you want a sole to remain healthy and resistant to excessive wear. See http://www.burgol.de/products/ledersohlenoel
Every shoe I have bought and put that product on from before first use has had a major reduction in wear to the sole, an increase in the life of the sole and an improved ability to flex without disturbing the upper.
Not only that, but when the first layer of sole is worn sufficiently it becomes possible to resole with a "Daenite" if you really want a rubber bottom sole.
Daenite at least simulates natural leather reasonably well, Topy does not.
Those Marlows are basically no better than second hand now, and $250 - $300.00 is about the value of a good second hand pair.

My Marlow seems to have dried up a little bit and I could see some minor water spots (yes, I did wear them under light rain once or twice.)
What is the best way to get rid of the water spots and restore the suppleness?
Try brushing with a horsehair brush, and then smoothing the leather with a deer bone. Both things can be bought at A Suitable Wardrobe's store.
Lacking a deer bone, you can more or less get the same effect with the curved side of a metal spoon.
