Vintage Dolce and Gabbana boots reappear after a long absence on eBay
It was a very pleasant surprise to see some of my all-time favorite boots reappear on eBay after a long absence. These are vintage (1990s?) Dolce and Gabbana, only the knee-high version instead of thigh-high. Even better, they were nicely modeled.
The listing is appropriately titled "Tall Black Dolce and Gabbana Leather Stiletto Boots Size 36 1/2." They're only listed with a Buy It Now price of $449.99 with pricey $17.99 shipping, although the seller is accepting offers.
She goes on to describe them as "Gorgeous Italian leather boots. Soft leather lining. Boots come with the original box and the dust bags. Very good looking. Shaft upper circumference is 14". Total height is 21". High heel is 4". Made in Italy."
As someone who has owned this style, she's right, these are "gorgeous Italian leather boots" which are "very good looking." I really wish she had posted photos of the original box and dust bags as I'd like to see what these boots originally came in. A photo of the box would also be nice if it showed the original retail price!
Still, she provided some excellent still photos as well as modeled photos. They look great paired with this print dress, which would make a stunning, although distracting, work outfit! I can see a sales clerk at a high-end department store wearing this look, or an executive assistant, or even a hostess at a nice restaurant.
The seller is obviously into high-end boots as she currently has listed three other pairs ($149 Miu Miu, $249 Gucci, and $679 Yves Saint Laurent!), but none nearly as nice as these!

Vintage Mary Popps Italian boots sell surprisingly well considering their condition
It appears to be a seller's market for vintage OTK and thigh-high boots right now.
These vintage 1980s OTK boots by Mary Popps started out with a pricey $249.99 opening bid and ended up with 6 bids selling for $288.00!
These size 7.5 boots were made in Italy and surprisingly, the seller provided no measurements whatsoever. In fact, there was barely even any text except that these were an estate find, have a bit of scuffing, and the top folds down to form a cuff.
While I like the clean lines and pull-on styling, I'm really surprised these boots fetched this price. They're a smaller size and the heels, heel tips, and soles all show considerable wear. To get these looking nice with new heel tips and soles would cost the buyer another $50-$75, I suspect.
Another pair of vintage Wild Pair thigh boots sells extremely well
Another off the charts sale for yet another pair of vintage Wild Pair black leather thigh-thigh boots, also from the same seller.
These size 10 boots sold for their Buy It Now price of $349.99.
These impressive 31" tall boots feature snakeskin detail at the ankles, rear lacing, and sexy spiked heels with metal tips. I can just imagine what those sound like walking across that hardwood floor!
I also think the superb modeling and quality photography has really helped this seller with some excellent recent boot sales.
