{"product_id":"original-1950s-soviet-ice-skates","title":"Original 1950s Soviet ice skates","description":"\u003cp\u003eOriginal 1950s Soviet ice skates, made in the USSR from black leather with metal blades.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe boots have a wonderfully utilitarian post-war design, with heavy black leather uppers, reinforced stitched panels, metal eyelets and substantial steel skate fittings. The contrasting red\/burgundy trim and surviving mismatched laces add to their authentic vintage character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe leather has developed attractive creasing and patina from use, while the blades and metal fittings retain the expected signs of age. Rather than looking decorative or reproduction, they have the distinctly functional construction of mid-century Soviet sporting equipment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA great collectible piece of Soviet sports history, but also particularly effective as winter décor, chalet décor, ski-lodge styling or a vintage sports display. One lace is still original.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere is a city name embossed on the blades Leningrad.\u003cbr\u003eSize approximately 35 (EU), could be women´s or children´s.\u003cbr\u003eThe condition is visible in the photos.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlease note that Overseas and NON EU buyers may have to pay customs clearance and import tax.
