Vintage 1980s Two Lips OTK boots sell for $300!

These vintage 1980s black leather OTK boots by Two Lips sold for an impressive $299.99.  These size 9 boots featured a ruching effect around the top of the foot and ankle area.

I remember seeing these exact boots in the Nordstrom store on Union Square in San Francisco in the early 1990s.  These appear to be in excellent vintage condition for boots that are more than 30 years old!

As usual with this seller, kudos on the nice modeling.  The boots look especially nice on crossed legs!

A vintage pair of boots with holes in them sells for what?!

File this one under "Are you kidding me?!"

An eBay seller listed these vintage OTK boots with a starting bid of $200.  I was sure she'd have to relist them with a lower starting price...but I was wrong.  These boots got three bids and sold for an amazing $411.00!  Why I'm so amazed is that the boots have holes in them - serious holes!

Yes, this looks like the mouth of a catfish!



Yes, they're a popular size 10 but it appears that someone has a fetish for "well worn" boots as the seller described in her auction title.

From the seller: these boots should have been thrown in the trash 25 years ago lol. they might be fixable. but more for the collector I think. this boot style was made by two lips in the early 90's. very rare today, they are just about all gone now over the years.

Otherwise, the boots were nicely modeled with leggings.  


Interesting, as there were apparently two different modeling sessions as in some photos, the model is wearing solid grey leggings and in others, patterned grey leggings.

Some stunning stiletto boots from a UK boot seller

More from UK boot seller "br0nn1e," this time a knee-high pair.  These Boutique 9 boots received an impressive 37 bids and sold for $106.88.  These size 39/8.5 boots featured sexy stiletto heels and pointed toes.

They look stunning paired with the model's skinny jeans!  They'd also look great paired with a tweed pencil skirt.  The only thing I don't like about these is the ruching above the ankles.  I'd rather my boots scrunch naturally!
