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.

Vintage Wild Pair thigh boots sell for $350!

These vintage Wild Pair black leather thigh high boots in a popular size 10 sold for their "Buy It Now" price of $349.99!  These boots featured pull-on styling and measured a whopping 28" tall with 4" spiked heels.

As always with this seller, nicely modeled in a variety of poses.

As for the auction text, I couldn't have said it any better than the seller: This pair is a time capsule from the 80’s and is in excellent almost like new condition. Brand new heel tips, non slip sole protectors and Dr Scholes inserts have all been professionally installed making these the most comfortable and wearable Vintage Wild Pair boots you will ever find. These stunners will turn heads and be a conversation piece wherever you wear them! I must be crazy for even considering letting these go. A couple imperfections at the bottoms of the heels near the heel tips. Also, there are no Wild Pair tags remaining on the inside of the uppers but these are absolutely Vintage Wild Pair. A rare pull on non studded version of the Wild Pair Sheena model I believe. A true holy grail find!











An impressive sale on a nicely-modeled pair of vintage OTK boots

eBay boot seller "marmfrut" sold these vintage 1970s/1980s tan leather OTK boots for an impressive $96.99.  These boots were a size 8 and made in Spain by Pedro Fluxa.

These boots featured high wooden heels and appear to be very well-made.  As usual from this seller, they're very nicely modeled.  This is a classic style of boot that will always look great worn over skinny jeans or with the right skirt, especially denim or brown tweed.

Someone gets a real deal on some favorite Tom Ford boots

eBay boot seller "livefire" sold these stunning Tom Ford "Editorial" boots with metal stiletto heels for $385.  These size EU 40 / US 10.5 boots are over-the-knee and in excellent condition.

These boots came with an extra pair of heel tips and a dust bag for each boot.  These nicely modeled boots look great paired with a skirt as well as skinny jeans!

I hope the lucky winner appreciates the great deal they got on an exquisite pair of high-end designer boots that originally retailed for $2,290!














A deal on Giuseppe Zanotti dress boots with sexy stiletto heels

Someone got a deal on these Giuseppe Zanotti black leather knee-high heel heel dress boots for $120 plus shipping.  These sexy Italian boots were a size 39 and featured 4.5 stiletto heels.  They originally retailed for $900 and came with a dust bag.

While these boots are often shown cuffed, I like that the seller "livefire" showed these uncuffed so that they could possibly be worn as over-the-knee style boots.

Regardless, I think these boots would look great worn to the office with a pencil skirt or out for a night on the town over skinny jeans.

Nordstrom long leather gloves reappear and sell well

eBay glove seller "junkonsale" sold these Nordstrom long black leather gloves for an impressive $107.50.  These size medium gloves measured 20.5" long and were unlined.

These Nordstrom gloves used to appear on eBay fairly regularly, but this is the first pair I've seen listed in quite awhile.  These gloves are from sometime around the 2008 season and originally retailed for $148.





FROM THE ARCHIVES - A real deal on vintage fetish boots

From the archives in December 2016...

For only $140.10, someone got a real deal on these Leatherworks black thigh-high boots.  These size 7.5 boots were vintage, but new without box and featured a partial zipper.  These sexy boots measured an impressive 29" from sole to top with fetish-worthy 5.5 stiletto heels with metal tips.  Imagine the sound of these walking across a hardwood floor!

As with all of this English seller's boots, these were modeled superbly!







An unusual style of Casadei black leather OTK boots

eBay boot seller "livefire" sold these very nice Casadei black leather OTK boots for $228.  These Italian-made boots were a size 10 and appear to be in excellent condition. 

These sexy boots originally retailed for $1,200 and featured a very nice 4.25" narrow stacked high heel, 20" tall shaft, classic almond toes, and an unusual zipper detail on the outside of the boot.  These boots also came with a dust bag.

I have to admit, I've seen many styles of Casadei boots, but never this particular style.
