An unusual style of belted black leather blazer by Vakko

This dressy vintage black leather jacket by Vakko sold for $50 plus pricey $21 shipping.

This size M leather jacket is a rare style I haven't seen before.  It's styled like a double-breasted blazer, but with a partial zipper closing instead of buttons and a belt.  I also like the long notched pointed collar.  The jacket also features gold buttons on the sleeves and pockets which make it look even richer.  And is usual for Vakko items, the leather looks buttery soft!

This would look great paired with a turtleneck, black skinny jeans and riding boots.

A real deal on Frye "Melissa" black leather OTK riding boots

Someone got an amazing deal on these Frye "Melissa" black leather OTK riding boots for their starting bid of $22.90.  Unfortunately, shipping on these was a crazy $46, which I've decided is why eBay also charges fees on shipping.  Still, for $69, these were a good deal, especially in this size (8.5) and condition.  Brand new, these boots retail for around $200.

Although I'm not sure I've ever seen these boots cuffed, that's how the seller pictured them.  These even came with their original Frye box, which I would definitely want for storing these.

Dolce Vita "Donnie" black leather OTK boots finally sell nearly 2.5 years after being listed!

These Dolce Vita "Donnie" pebbled black leather OTK boots sold for an impressive $132 with free shipping.  This was an impressive price considering the wear on the soles and lack of modeling.

According to eBay's revision history for this item, these size 8.5 boots have been listed since April 1, 2017!  That's nearly 2.5 years from the time they finally sold!

As someone who has owned these boots, they are super comfortable and look great paired with skinny jeans and a black leather jacket!

A real deal on beautiful Frye "Melissa" OTK riding boots

Someone got a real deal on these new with box Frye "Melissa" black leather OTK boots in a size 8.5 at $119.57.  They even had reasonable $10.15 shipping.

This very well-made pair of boots that currently retails for $249 at Amazon!  As these are my size, I'm envious of the great deal the lucky winner got on these!

Gianvito Rossi Italian black leather OTK riding-style boots

These Gianvito Rossi made in Italy black leather OTK riding-style boots sold for their impressive starting bid of $489.  These size 39 boots were appealing to me because of their matte finish, walkable heels, and ankle strap which gives them an edgy "biker" look.

These would look great paired with skinny jeans and a blazer or black leather jacket.

Maria Christina rugged Italian over-the-knee boots

A seller in Prague, Czech Republic sold these Maria Christina tall black leather over-the-knee riding boots for $95.00 plus $15.00 shipping. These size 39.5 (US 9.5) boots were made in Italy.

The style of these boots remind me of the Stuart Weitzman "Hilo" boots, only with a more rugged lug sole.  These boots featured an unusual zipper opening near the rear tops.  In hindsight, I wish I would have bid on these.

Very rare Chanel black leather OTK riding boots

These vintage 1996 Chanel black leather over-the-knee riding style boots rarely appear on eBay, and when they do, expect them to fetch an amazing price.  As these were my size (40 / US 9), I put in a bid, but it was way below the $710 these ended up selling for.  This very popular item received 31 bids.

What could have been extra-appealing about these is that, except for the height, the styling is very unisex.  I could very easily see a man purchasing these as some very high-end riding boots!

It appears from the auction text that the lucky seller was the original owner:
Purchased in 1996 these authentic Chanel boots are still gorgeous, black leather, they look like over the top English riding boots. CC logo on the front, marked on the bottom Chanel stamp, they have been re soled, they have a great distressed look, lined in leather. Claudia Schiffer modeled similar boots on the runway in 1996.

A deal on some very nice OTK riding boots

For only $37 (although the shipping was a pricey $15), someone got a deal on these size 37 over-the-knee black leather riding boots.  The seller didn't know who made them, but the styling almost resembles Jean Gaborit.

Although I'm usually not a fan of rear zippers on boots, I kind of like it on these, especially since the zippers are black.

I sure would like to find these in my size!

Stuart Weitzman "Hilo" OTK boots continue to sell well

Speaking of unisex boots, my current favorite style of OTK flat-heeled boot continues to sell very well on eBay, especially since it appears that Stuart Weitzman has discontinued the "Hilo" style. In my opinion, these boots are works of art, and get great reviews for their comfort and style.

These size 8 boots, new without box, sold for a respectable $406, considering the original retail is $650.




These boots in a size 8.5, sold for a very impressive $635, especially considering that they're pre-owned and original retail was $650! Is it because the box was included?!

Stuart Weitzman "Hilo" OTK riding boots

Some of my favorite boots of the season, these Stuart Weitzman "Hilo" boots in a size 10 sold for $360.00. As most sellers just use stock photos of these boots, it's nice to see them modeled for a change. I'd really like to own a pair of these, but at eBay prices, they're still a little too expensive for me.

Vintage Yves Saint Laurent black suede OTK boots

These vintage Yves Saint Laurent size 9 suede OTK boots originally sold for a whopping $374.99. Apparently, the original buyer didn't come through because they were re-listed and sold for $162.50.

Had I been this eBay seller, I would not have been too happy to have a $375 sale fall through and end up re-selling for much less at $162.50.

Italian OTK riding style boots by Piampiani

These Italian OTK riding style boots by Piampiani sold for a very impressive $223.49. They're a size 8.5, 26" tall, zip up the back, and were listed in excellent condition as only being worn once.

Gorgeous boots and nice to see an item like this do so well!
