(Check it here: Seconds Sale on Vinted ) Were offering the Factory Seconds or B-grade shoes and some single remaining sizes in the seconds sale. So what are Factory Seconds or B-grades you might ask?..Well let us explain:   Factory Seconds or B-grades: These are shoes that have small blemishes. That can mean things like, discolouration, glue stains, material defects. These are often called "cosmetic seconds" as that is all that it is. Structurally they are sound and fully functional as any other pair of regular shoes. Some examples: (these are the extreme examples)   Glue stains     Warped weave pattern...
