They are new old stock, still with the original cardboard box, leather straps and factory packing slip. Built for toddlers and young children learning to balance, they use a double-blade design and strap directly onto regular winter boots.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eItem Details\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e Children's ice skates, double-runner (twin blade) for beginners\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Malysh (Малыш)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCountry of Manufacture:\u003c\/strong\u003e USSR (Soviet Union)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEra:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1980s (based on the OST 62-105-78 standard and the price stamp)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e All-metal construction with adjustable leather straps\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSole Length:\u003c\/strong\u003e Approx. 16–18 cm (6.3–7.1 in), standard for this model\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMarkings:\u003c\/strong\u003e Packing slip (Упаковочный лист) with factory details, article number 1505У and the original Soviet price of 2 rubles 80 kopecks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCondition\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eNew old stock in excellent vintage condition.

I think they make a fine example of 1980s Soviet industrial design and toy manufacturing for collectors of vintage sporting goods and USSR memorabilia. They also work beautifully as rustic decor for winter-themed displays, Christmas photography props or sports-themed interiors, and as a gift for anyone who grew up in the Eastern Bloc.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOne pair of Malysh children's ice skates\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOriginal leather straps\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOriginal cardboard box\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFactory instruction manual \/ packing slip\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eShipping\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eCarefully packed and shipped worldwide from Ukraine with a tracking number.
