Oakley B-1 Factory Lite Walking/Trail Shoes (Pair)

This item is a pair of Oakley B-1 Factory Lite walking or trail shoes, presented in a light beige/tan and off-white colorway with brown accents. The shoes feature a multi-material construction, combining what appears to be suede overlays in a textured, almost pebbled finish, with smooth synthetic or leather panels, and possibly mesh areas for breathability, particularly visible on the toe box. The lacing system incorporates fabric loops for the laces, which are a beige color with thin brown stripes at intervals, threading through the suede panels and looping around the sides. A distinctive feature is the gold-colored Oakley ellipse logo (often referred to as an 'O' or 'bullet' logo) subtly placed on the outer side of each shoe's midfoot. The sole unit is robust and chunky, typical of a trail or walking shoe, with a white foam-like midsole showing some textured detailing and a brown rubber outsole providing traction. The overall condition indicates moderate prior use; there is visible wear, dirt, and some discoloration consistent with age and use, particularly on the uppers and midsoles. The stitching appears intact, suggesting good construction quality. The design reflects a late 1990s to early 2000s aesthetic, characterized by its athletic utility and somewhat rugged appearance. There are no obvious tears or major damage, though cleaning would improve their appearance. The shoes exhibit a utilitarian yet stylish design, indicative of Oakley's foray into footwear with a focus on both performance and distinctive aesthetics.
