We have very reasonable shipping terms and combine orders to save money (for customers) on shipping costs. We also maintain customer friendly return/refund/exchange policies. Product Description: Listing Update...I have some of these shoes packaged in blue/white AXO boxes that identify them as the Elite model, as opposed to the Master Pro model indicated in this listing. They are the same shoe and like sizes sell for the same price in our store. My apologies for any confusion this may cause and I hope this listing update is helpful. Original Listing... This offering is for new-old-stock black AXO cycling shoes. I have probably been storing these shoes in our warehouse for around 10 years and I would guess they were already 10+ years removed from production when I acquired them. So if I had to guess, I would peg their vintage to the 90's. This is the Master Pro model that is made from genuine leather with nice red/orange/yellow/white accents and labeling. I should also note there is a lot of double stitching in the areas where the various pieces of leather material are joined to make these shoes. Lastly as it relates to the upper section of these shoes, notice the numerous holes punched in the leather at regular intervals to help the feet breath a little better on those extremely hot days. The inner sole is made from genuine leather and is anchored to a hard plastic outer sole that is quite stiff. Turning the shoes over, you will see a number of pre-drilled holes for various cleats. The most recognizable of these holes are likely the three pre-drilled holes for LOOK/SPD-SL or compatible clipless cleats. Then there are two other holes...one at the center/base of the triangle that makes up the LOOK/SPD-SL platform, and another that is located by itself at about the midpoint of the external sole (and this latter hole is adjustable). These two holes will accommodate old-style cleats designed to be used with traditional clipped and toe strapped pedals...which probably speaks to the vintage of these shoes (and note the old style two-bolt cleats for traditional clipped and strapped pedals are included). In terms of sizing, they are a size 37 (Euro). Although, for those not very familiar with European sizing (and please include us in this group), we measured the outer dimensions of these shoes using our digital calipers and noted their length was (223 mm or 22.3 cm) and their width...at the widest part of the toebox...was (78 mm or 7.8 cm). We also scanned a few shoe sizing/conversion charts and noted that while cycling shoe manufactures size their shoes somewhat differently, a size 37 (Euro) typically translates into a youth size 5 to 5 1/2 (or a slightly smaller men's size, if such information were published in sizing charts) or a women's size 6 1/2. Having said all of this about sizing, I have since been told AXO shoes tend to run a bit small, so please keep this mind when considering your proper shoe size in this brand/model. As for condition, these shoes are new-old-stock and still retail boxed. Listing Update...The age of these shoes means the adhesive that binds the outer sole to the genuine leather upper will likely fail at some point. A few customers have indicated this to be a problem, but a relatively easy fix with the application of some new adhesive. Other customers have taken the shoes to a shoe repair shop to have this work done, and the prices have ranged between $10 and $15 (to re-glue the shoes back together). So please understand these shoes will require some attention (given their age) at a later date. This also explains why we are now selling these shoes below our cost (and listing them as "new with defects").

Note to international customers regarding shipping... We apologize to those that feel some of our international shipping charges are too high. We only charge actual shipping rates, but once an order exceeds a certain amount, we hesitate to use the least expensive US Postal Services First Class International service. We feel this way, because this service is not trackable or insurable...so more risk of loss. We prefer the US Postal Services Priority Mail International service for more expensive orders, because this service is trackable at USPS.com and insurable...so less risk of loss. Unfortunately, this service is more expensive, especially for smaller/lighter packages, relative to the First Class International service. We are sorry about these higher shipping costs, but hopefully our notes help to explain why this is the case. Note to international customers regarding customs... We also apologize to those that feel their country import taxes, duties and brokerage fees are excessive. As a small US business, we are required by customs' laws to declare each order as a retail sale. Additionally, the declared order value must be equal to total store purchases and/or winning auction bids (less any shipping costs, as these are not considered in the declared value). As a result, each customer will be responsible for paying his/her own country taxes, duties and brokerage fees, which will be collected upon delivery. Again, we apologize for these additional costs, but we cannot afford the penalties and fines that come with breaking customs' laws...so we have to strictly abide by them.
