Heavily used, but from the pictures I believe they are okay. On the back of one of the straps where there is zigzag stitching, carefully bend the green fabric down the center of the zigzag stitch. If you do not see where two pieces of feels great clots have been married, that is stitched together, then they are 100% bad. This must be there. Some fakers have incorporated this into their straps others have not. If this detail is present, it's a good sign

In my experience, SS Pioneer straps are harder to find and seem to command a premium. Be careful that the piping has not been replaced!

I agree that they look like real straps. But just inspect the piping application well to make sure it is original applied.
