Stuart Weitzman "Hilo" boots sell for $180

These Stuart Weitzman "Hilo" black leather thigh-high boots received 10 bids and sold for $180.50.  With $20 for shipping, someone got a pair of my all-time favorite boots for just $200, which seems to be about the going rate for these boots these days.

Although the seller listed these size 8.5 boots as "new without box," the photo of the soles appears to show some embedded dirt.  Otherwise, these boots appear to be in like-new condition. 

Although not modeled, the seller provided some very nice photos.  However, it always makes me cringe when sellers of these boots show them folded over.  These boots were not meant to be worn cuffed, hence the elastic gore at the top rear of the shafts!

Stuart Weitzman "Hilo" boots sell for $125!

Even with pricey $23 shipping, someone got a good deal on these worn Stuart Weitzman "Hilo" black leather thigh-high boots for $125.  These were also a nice large size 40 / US 9.5M.

I originally thought the high shipping had to do with the fact that these came with their original blue Stuart Weitzman box.  However, the listing stated that the box was not included.  Sorry, but I think picturing the box in the listing is misleading if you then state it's not included.  Also, why the $23 shipping then?

Although these boots had some wear, they're about $75 cheaper than I've seen most pairs of this style sell for lately.  For $149, a great way to get into a pair of some of my all-time favorite boots!

However, I am curious why in this first photo does one boot look several inches taller than the other?!

Stuart Weitzman "Hilo" boots perform extremely well in a large size

Swiss boot seller "bootshopmauro" fetched one of the best prices I've seen for Stuart Weitzman "Hilo" boots lately - $538!  I attribute this to the excellent condition and especially the rare large size 42 (US 11.5).  These boots measure an impressive 27.5" tall and the seller stated that these were new, never worn.

What's interesting is that these are actually labeled "Stuart Weitzman for Russell Bromley" in London.

Another pair of Stuart Weitzman "Hilo" boots sells for $200

These Stuart Weitzman "Hilo" thigh-high boots in black suede sold for $200.  These size 8.5 were listed as new, although it appears from the photos that these were lightly worn.  It could have been from the modeling, but these does appear to be some debris on the soles.

A deal on Stuart Weitzman "Hilo" boots at $199

Even with pricey $24 shipping, these Stuart Weitzman "Hilo" black leather thigh-high boots were still a deal for $199.  They're a nice, large size 9, appear to be in very good, lightly worn condition, and come with their original box.

Still some of my all-time favorite thigh-high boots, these are super comfortable and have very walkable short heels.  These look amazing worn over skinny jeans!

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!

Stuart Weitzman "Hilo" boots don't sell, but still have nice modeling

Although these Stuart Weitzman "Hilo" black leather thigh-high boots didn't sell for their opening bid of $300 or Buy It Now price of $400, the seller provided some rare modeled photos.  These boots were even a popular size 9.5!

Stuart Weitzman "Hilo" OTK boots continue to sell well

One of my all-time favorite boot styles, the Stuart Weitzman "Hilo" OTK boots, continue to sell well.  Even though Nordstrom re-released them last season in suede, the smooth leather style which has not been produced for several years now, continues to sell well.  Without a doubt, these are some of the most comfortable boots I've ever owned and look great paired with skinny jeans and a black leather jacket!

This size 8.5 pair, in good pre-owned condition, received 43 bids and sold for $226.50.

This "new with defects" pair in a size 9.5 sold for an impressive $350.  The seller indicated that there were minor scuff marks on the leather uppers (see bottom two photos).  Otherwise, this is the nicest condition I've seen these boots in awhile.

It makes me wonder if this seller in Hopkins, Minnesota, has access to a Stuart Weitzman Factory Outlet store as they have several new and "new with defects" pairs of Weitzman boots listed for sale.  These boots with slight blemishes would definitely be the type to appear in an outlet store.
