Impressive vintage designer OTK black leather boots

Swiss boot seller "bootshopmauro" sold these impressive vintage designer OTK black leather boots for $139.06. These size 38 boots received 22 bids and measured an impressive 27" tall.  I wish the seller had listed who made these because they'd be worth seeking out.

I especially like the clean lines with no zippers and the straight "stovepipe" shafts with minimal stitching.

Candela "Cloti" OTK boots sell for what?!

eBay boot seller "bootshopmauro" continues to have very impressive sales with high-end used boots.  This pair of Candela "Cloti" OTK boots received 60 bids and sold for a very impressive $430!

These beautiful boots were made in Italy, a popular size 9, and appeared to be in mint condition!  The seller stated these had a 4.5" heel and an impressive 26" height above the heels.  Although the seller didn't show them cuffed, I've seen these cuffed nicely in other photos, which makes for a totally different look.

  

I've always thought the style of the boots was timeless: high stacked heels, nicely rounded toes, and very clean lines with pull-on styling.  I also think the subtle strap detail around the ankle is a nice touch.

Actually, I thought the seller described them best:

Amazing beautiful, high, very long and very rare VINTAGE overknee leatherboots by CANDELA ITALY!

Very good condition, made from soft but stable real-leather!

Vintage Biondini Italian racy red leather thigh-high boots

Swiss boot seller "bootshopmauro" sold these vintage Biondini Italian thigh-high boots for an impressive $358.24.  These sexy red boots were a size 8.5 / EU 38.5 and featured pull-on styling with very clean lines.  These featured sexy 4" heels and an impressively tall 28" upper shaft!

Although the seller stated these were pre-owned, the soles and heel tips appear to be in pristine, like-new condition.

I've never thought red boots to be very practical, but these could really make for a stunning Valentine's Day outfit!

Vintage black leather thigh-high boots sell for $435!

A boot seller in Switzerland sold these vintage 1970s/1980s black leather thigh-high boots for a very impressive $434.83.  These 38.5 / US 8 boots featured very clean lines, almond toes, and a nice narrow, stacked heel.  Unfortunately, the seller did not list the brand but there is something with a turtle(?) logo on the photo inside the shaft.  Otherwise, the heels and insides look like vintage Italian boots.

These boots featured a very walkable 3.7" heels and an impressive 25" upper above the heels.  For as tall as these boots are, it does not appear that they are meant to be worn cuffed.

This is a classic, timeless style boot that I can see being worn with skinny jeans or a pencil skirt.

An extra large Gap black leather hobo bag sells well

The style trends I read say that the oversized hobo purse is back in style this fall.

Some lucky buyer got ahead of the trend by scoring this pre-owned Gap extra large black leather hobo for $69 plus shipping. I especially like the clean lines - no fringe, no studs, no unnecessary hardware.  Plus it measures an impressive 20" long by 14" tall.

Vintage Wild Pair thigh-high black leather boots sell for $255!

eBay boot seller "marmfrut" sold these vintage Wild Pair black leather thigh-high boots for an impressive $255.00.  These stunning boots were a size 7 and measured 29" tall.  It probably helped that these were in excellent condition with very light wear on the soles and came with their original, vintage Wild Pair box.

I've always really liked this Wild Pair style, but have never been able to find it in my size.  I especially like the pull-on style which gives it very clean lines with no zippers.  These can also be worn cuffed, which gives them  more versatility.

As always, kudos to the seller for her usual excellent modeling which does a great job of showing off these incredibly sexy boots!



















If I remember the Wild Pair label coding correctly, these were a 1986 style and originally sold for $139.

Vintage Wild Pair thigh boots get snapped up quickly

I was not surprised to see these beautiful vintage 1980s black leather thigh-high boots by Wild Pair get snapped up shortly after they were listed.  I have "Wild Pair boots" as one of my saved searches, so I get e-mails every morning when new items are added that match my search.  These had already been snapped up for $88 using Buy It Now by the time I clicked on the link in my e-mail.  They're a size 6.5, so I wouldn't have been interested but I have to admit that this style of Wild Pair boots has always intrigued me.  And I've never been able to add a pair in this style to my collection.  I especially like the clean lines of the simple pull-on styling as well as that these can be worn cuffed.

These would look stunning paired with skinny jeans and a black leather concert as well as part of a sexy pirate costume for Halloween!

Still, someone got a very nice pair of vintage thigh boots that the seller indicated had only been worn once.

 And kudos to the seller, who listed them with some great text:

I wish I had a live model, as these look great on real legs and thighs! ..... 

Beautiful, vintage 1980s true THIGH HIGH BOOTS, darkest black leather, way way over the knee and almost to the crotch area depending on your height. These are made by WILD PAIR, made in Brazil, and are supple and lustrous full leather, with high heels, curved vamp and slightly rounded pointed toe that is very feminine. These are 1 sexy pair of thigh high boots! Back in fashion today (did they ever really go out of style?), I purchased these in the late 1980s and only wore them once so they have light wear only and are in good, clean condition. These measure almost 30" high/long and can be cuffed down at the top for a different look, a sort of pirate appeal.

Vintage 1980s Italian OTK boots by Mary Popps

These vintage 1980s Italian black leather over-the-knee boots by Mary Popps sold for a very impressive $237.50, especially in a small size 6.5  I'm not so sure about the red piping but I really like the 30" height, nice cuffs, straight lines, and sexy spiked heels.

I think these fetched such a high price because these boots very rarely appear on eBay.  They also appear to be in excellent condition!
