Interest in Vintage Chinese Sneakers (FeiYue/HuiLi/Etc)?

Hi everyone! I'm new to the neighborhood and have just recently started selling on eBay. I am currently living in China and am starting off by selling various ethnic jewelry and clothing pieces.

In China, there's recently been a huge resurgence of vintage martial arts-scene sneakers (kind of like a Chinese Converse) and from what I hear, they have also really been catching on in Europe. There are several primary brands such as FeiYue, Warrior/HuiLi, and Double Star/Shuang Xing. Since I can't post links here, I'm not sure how else to display pictures on here, but I believe Google-ing any of the brand names should lead to some image results/descriptions.

Anyway, although these shoes are no longer being produced, it is still fairly easy to find them around Beijing. I'm considering trying to sell some of these shoes on eBay, but am curious if there is enough interest/awareness/demand to actually be able to reach any buyers.

So--what do you think of Chinese Vintage? Have you ever heard of these sneaker brands? If you took the time to search for an image of these sneakers, do you have any interest in them?

Any thoughts/comments are welcome!
