Custom-made crotch boots sell for $425 from a UK seller

A boot seller in the UK listed these custom-made crotch-high black leather boots which received 41 bids and sold for an impressive $425!  These boots were new with the original box.

These boots were a large size 43 or the seller stated a US 11.  These boots were made of black lambskin leather and featured a full-length side zipper, pointy toes and metal heels.  These boots measured a whopping 39 inches tall - truly crotch-high boots!






Fortunately, the seller also provided a couple of nicely modeled photos.

Last-minute bidding drives up the price on Tamara Mellon's classic "Icon" boots

These Tamara Mellon "Icon" boots sold for an impressive $405.  What's especially impressive is that I was tracking this auction and it went into the final minute of bidding with only a $71 bid.  I thought someone was going to get a real deal on these, but then the bids shot up within the last minute.

These size 39 boots were made in Italy and feature a sexy 105mm heel and nicely pointed toes.  These are the classic black leather knee-high boot style.  They're also trendy in that they can be worn slouchy.  They've just recently been discontinued by the designer, which is interesting considering how popular these are with the fashion bloggers.  Tamara Mellon herself also wore them for several photo shoots.








Biondini black leather thigh-high boots make a rare appearance

 A seller in Germany sold these stunning Biondini black leather thigh-high boots for a deserving $474.  This auction received an amazing 67 bids!

These size 41 boots were nicely modeled over skinny jeans and leather pants.  These Italian-made boots featured sexy stiletto heels and pointy toes.  Unfortunately, those pointy toes also tend to get significant wear as the seller's photos also show.

Interesting to note that in the background of some of the photos you can see more sexy stiletto-heeled black leather boots.  This seller has excellent taste in boots!  And I can only imagine how sexy those stiletto heels sound walking across her hardwood floors!

Gianvito Rossi over-the-knee boots nicely modeled

These Gianvito Rossi over-the-knee boots were listed for $399 but "the seller ended the listing early because the item is no longer available."  I suspect the seller got an unsolicited offer for an acceptable price and decided to sell.

These stunning boots were a popular size 8.5, listed as "new without box" and featured pull-on styling, a very walkable 3.25" spiked heel and pointy toes.

For me, these are pretty much the perfect dressy boot, perfect to wear to the office with a pencil skirt and then over skinny jeans for a night out!


Kudos on the very nice modeling!

A pair of boots sells for $11,000?! Really?

I'm still not sure whether this auction ended with a "real" winner or not as these Enzo Brera boots sold for an astonishing $11,000.  This is by far the most I've ever seen a pair of boots sell for, on eBay, or at full retail!  The bidding started at $139 and it appears that two bidders got into a bidding war and drove the price up to $11,000 with 30 bids.


These nicely modeled new-with-box size 38 boots were sold by a designer boot seller in Russia.

Vintage thigh high boots continue to sell well

eBay boot seller "marmfrut" sold these vintage black leather thigh-high boots for an impressive $197.57.  The bidding started at $149.99.  These size 9 boots featured 4" spiky heels, nicely pointed toes, and measured a very impressive 28 3/4" in overall height.  Pull-on styling means no zippers and some very clean lines.  She also added that the lining could be extended to make these 35" tall, or crotch high.  The seller also stated these boots were used with very light wear and scuffing, like new.  Between the condition, size, and rarity of these boots, no wonder they fetched a nice price!

Although the seller indicated the boots had no maker name, they look like vintage Frederick's of Hollywood boots sold by this same seller a few years ago.  And as always, nicely modeled.

Nicely modeled vintage Dolce and Gabbana boots sell for an impressive $399

Even in a small size 36.5 (US 6.5), these tall black Italian leather boots by Dolce and Gabbana sold for a very impressive $399.  Especially impressive as these were the knee-high version of these boots and not the OTK version.

This style rarely appears on eBay, but when it does, always seems to garner some interest.  I've always liked these boots, especially the super sexy pointed toes and stiletto heels.

Although the seller indicated these came with the original box and dust bags, she didn't post photos.  For as many times as I've seen these boots appear on eBay, I've never seen them with the original box and dust bags.

Finally, they're very nicely modeled with the print dress, both sitting and standing.  A great work or holiday party look!  And a special kudos to the seller for posting the maximum 12 photos allowed on eBay - a nice assortment of modeled and unmodeled photos.
