“The completely unused Black Leather Sandals in Blankens, The Ayl, were too small for me,” Andersson writes in the post.
For almost new sandals, Andersson asks € 200.
On Thursday afternoon, Andersson’s sales announcement had received one public survey of shoes. It seems that the shoes are still on sale.

The price may sound staggering, but the sandals made of chrome -free leather are handmade. Blankens says on its website that these sandals are made in Portugal.
As new, these sandals cost almost € 315. Currently, they are at a discount, and the sandals will get themselves new at 20 euros more expensive than what Anderson asks them.
According to the product pages of the shoes, the sandals have two adjustable ribbons that are different from leather material. In addition, the shoes have a low interest rate.
Blankens is a Swedish company that manufactures leather shoes and accessories for women.
The company says on its website that all their materials are purchased from the EU.
The chromic leather, which has been used in Andersson’s shoes, is also tanned in the EU.
Like sandals, other company products are manufactured in Portugal.

Re -sale is ecological
Andersson’s sales post has sparked discussion and feelings for and against social media.
A similar debate has occurred before, for example, public figures have re -used the same outfit.
“Every opportunity really requires a new clothing – neither from the president’s spouses: we do not give up on the clothes used once, but we get into them several times,” wrote Iltalehti’s fashion journalist Polina peninsula In connection with the Somekua, which was born when Suzanne Inses-Stubb dressed twice in the same outfit.
