So I'm looking to pass these on. They're in very good condition, with a few marks. Can provide lots of other pics to anyone interested. Important thing to note is that one of the teeth on the back buckle has snapped. The other one is fine.

Gorgeous tan monk straps. These were commonly worn by USAAF officers through to 60s mods.
I would say these fit a little wide and low for my feet, but would hopefully do well for someone else. I'm a UK 8E or US 8.5D for reference.

Y'know I was out for a long ride yesterday (well, about 125km/77 miles), but didn't take a picture of the bike or what I was wearing.
