Vintage Italian black leather OTK boots by Piampiani sell for $100

These very nice vintage Italian black leather OTK boots sold for a deserving $100.  These boots were a size 40 / US 9 and nicely modeled.  They also had a full-length zipper running up the back of the shaft.  The quality of the leather looks exceptional and these boots were nicely modeled.

The flat heel and pointy toes on these would make a great addition to a musketeer or pirate costume for Halloween.






An inside view of these boots reveals they were made in Italy by Piampiani, a maker whose boots I've admired before.  Now I kind of wish I had bid on these!

As you can see from my previous post on these boots, this buyer got a real deal as a size 8.5 pair sold for nearly $225 almost ten years ago!

I also like how the seller modeled them not only with leggings, but with pants, albeit slightly baggy to wear tucked into boots.

Pleaser thigh boots fetch an impressive price

These size 9 Pleaser black leather thigh-high boots sold for an impressive $99.  The Pleaser boots I've come across aren't the best quality leather (pigskin), but the styling of their thigh-high boots is classic.  It also helps that these are nicely modeled!

Given the timing, these could have sold well because they're in demand as part of someone's sexy Halloween costume!  With the rear lacing detail, these would make great "pirate wench" or Catwoman boots!


I also like how the seller shows them cuffed at two different heights.
