Selling Guide
Where to Sell
Poshmark or eBay are best for this brand and style. Mercari is a good secondary option for quick sales.
Selling Tips
Clean the leather with a damp cloth and apply a neutral leather balm to buff out the toe scuffs—this will significantly increase the 'perceived value'. Use keywords like 'Rugged', 'Biker', 'Moto', and 'Distressed' in the title.
