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.


 Candela "Cloti" over the knee boots - eBay Leather: May 2013 

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!

Stunning faux leather thigh-high boots that look much more expensive!

eBay boot seller "bootshopmauro" sold these stunning Simmi London black leather thigh-high boots for $186, especially impressive considering these are faux leather!  These size 9 boots were new with box and featured 4.5 inch stiletto heels and an impressive 28" tall upper.

Although I've never heard of this brand, I especially like the clean lines.  The elastic gore at the top of the shaft is a nice touch, too.

I'll have to admit that even I thought these were real leather boots, so am even more impressed at the price these fetched!  These boots originally retailed for $68!!!



















These Simmi boots are modeled in nude color here and it appears that this style is Karrueche.

G. Marino long black leather gloves

These G. Marino long black leather gloves only received three bids (starting at $95) yet sold for an impressive $127.50.  These size 8 gloves were made in Italy, new with tags, silk lined, and measured an impressive 24" long.  They also featured a three-button mosquetaire opening at the wrist.

These are some of the nicer long black leather gloves I've seen offered on eBay recently.

Vintage Italian burgundy OTK boots

These vintage 1970s burgundy leather OTK boots by Mignani sold for their starting bid of $199.

These size 7 boots were made in Italy and feature nice narrow stacked heels and the ability to be cuffed.  For vintage boots, these are in excellent condition and appear to be extremely well-made.

These definitely fall into the category of "they don't make boots like these anymore!"









Interesting as they appear to be lined in the same leather all the way down inside the shaft.

Fernando Berlin boots sell well, even modeled on a toilet!

Never mind the bizarre modeling on the toilet, a seller in the UK sold these Fernando Berlin black leather thigh-high boots for $303.  These very sexy boots were a size 38 and measured an impressive 27" excluding the 4.75" heels.

I was also intrigued as the seller stated these were "indoor funds" and "private parties."  Hmmm...

Oh and, for the record, that bathroom is very cool!







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!









A classic boot seller returns with vintage "Wild Pair" boots for sale!

These boots featured stud detailing on the shafts and rear lacing at the ankles and the knees.  Although vintage, the soles on these appear to be in excellent condition!

As always with this seller, these size 8 boots were nicely modeled.
