Another pair of Wild Pair crotch-high boots listed by the same seller, only these are pre-owned

Interesting as the same seller has the Wild Pair black leather crotch-high boots, pre-owned, in a size 7.5 listed with a Buy It Now Price of $199.99.

These also appear to be in excellent condition for the price.










UPDATE 10/23: About 36 hours after they were listed, these sold for their Buy It Now price of $199.99.  Although a small size 7.5, someone got a nice deal on a classic pair of vintage boots.

Vintage Wild Pair black leather crotch-boots make a rare appearance in NEW condition

The vintage Wild Pair black leather crotch-high boots made a rare appearance on eBay again this morning.  They're only listed with a Buy It Now price of $399.99 plus shipping, and rightfully so, they're a size 10 and appear to be in mint, unworn condition.  The only thing that might be better is having the original box!

These do appear to be in amazing condition - freshly polished and with pristine sole treads and new heel tips.

As someone who has bought and sold these boots on eBay, I've seen them go as high as $425, especially during the holiday selling season.  My best experience selling these boots was a size 8 pair, new without tags, which I sold for $303 back in 2012.  About the only Wild Pair style that fetches more than these is their chap boots.

I'll be glad to report back to see if and how quickly these boots sell for their current Buy It Now price of $399.

UPDATE: As of 10/26, about four days after the auction began, these sold for their Buy It Now price of $399.99.  Kudos to the seller for getting a very impressive price for these rare boots in new condition!


Meanwhile, here's the seller's text:
AMAZING.. BRAND NEW! SIZE 10! A lot of Wild Pair collectors consider the WP crotch boots to be the most desirable of all the Wild Pair vintage boots. What makes this pair even more special is the fact these are like brand new and have never been worn only tried on! Also, the large size (10) make these super rare. Larger sizes in most Wild Pair boots are very hard to come by. The leather on these is unbelievable! Buttery soft, slinky and smooth. Pull on. They are longgg! 35 inches in total length! 4” stiletto heels and 22” circumference at the top. Rear gusset at the top allows for ease of sliding these babies on and also provides that desired sexy look! They can be worn ultra high, scrunched or folded at the top. The black sole protectors on the bottoms are original and still brand new without a scuff because these have never stepped foot outside. I had the heel taps replaced just due to the age of the unused original taps. Please keep in mind Wild Pair boots tend to run a bit small so know your size in Wild Pair. I consider these a “holy grail” type find and I’m on the fence about letting these beauties go so this listing may not be up very long! Last 4 pics are not the actual boots, they are just to show how they look on cuffed and uncuffed.















And some modeled photos pulled from somewhere else online...





Not sure that I've ever seen these photos, but this all black leather outfit is stunning!

A beautiful ASOS long leather pencil skirt

Even in a small size 4, this sexy ASOS oxblood-colored "burgundy" leather pencil skirt sold for an impressive $90.  This "new with tags" skirt measured a long 29 inches!

As someone who has shopped for leather pencil skirts recently, I can vouch for ASOS' very impressive selection of both genuine leather and faux leather skirts in a variety of styles.











A nice pair of long black leather opera gloves

These long black leather opera gloves received an impressive 30 bids and sold for $91.  These were sold eBay glove seller "junkonsale."

These size 8.5 gloves measured nearly 24" long and were lined with black polyester.  The seller didn't know the manufacturer of the gloves since they were purchased from another eBay seller.

These pre-owned gloves look nicely worn in.





Stunning stiletto black leather thigh-high boots by Casadei

These stunning Casadei black leather thigh-high boots sold for $850!

These boots were "new with box" and a popular size 8.5 / EU39.  The seller stated that he bought these for his wife as a Christmas gift for a classy night out, but she didn't think they were her style.

These made in Italy boots originally retailed for $1,500.  These boots had 4.25" heels and an amazing 30" overall length!



These incredible boots were also featured in a Casadei ad.

Stuart Weitzman "Hilo" boots, even with defects, still sell for $319!

It's nice to see that one of my all-time favorite style of boots, the Stuart Weitzman "Hilo" thigh-high boot, continues to sell well.

This size 8.5 pair, listed as "new with defects," sold for an impressive $319.  The seller stated that the defects were minor scuff marks on the upper leather of both boots.  The marks look like animal scratches on what otherwise are exceptionally nice boots!
