Vintage 1970s Donald J. Pliner tan leather thigh-high boots

These vintage 1970s Donald J. Pliner Beverly Hills thigh-high boots started with a bid of $19.90 and sold for an impressive $227.74.  Especially impressive considering the wear these babies show!

These size 39.5 boots were made in Italy and featured stacked wooden heels and nicely rounded toes.  It also appears that they can be worn cuffed thanks to the large slit at the upper rear of the shafts.  However, I was disappointed that the seller didn't list what was surely an impressive height.

These vintage boots would look great work with faded skinny jeans or a flowery boho-style skirt.

I bet these boots have an amazing history!

Who knew Vince made sexy leather boots, too?

I'm used to seeing Vince leather jackets and jogging pants in buttery soft leather at designer prices, but who knew they made boots, too?!

These Vince black leather OTK high stacked heel boots sold for their starting bid of $115.  These size 9.5 boots would have been tempting if I didn't already own the very similar Candela "Cloti" boots which are very similar but with ankle straps.

A sexy, timeless style that would look stunning paired with skinny jeans and a black leather jacket for a great "date night" or concert look.



Interesting how the seaming detail extends all the way down to the bottom of the heels.



They're listed in a size 10 on therealreal.com for $150 with a 20% off coupon code, bringing them down a reasonable $120.

Vintage Italian gray leather OTK boots sell for $150

These vintage gray over-the-knee leather boots sold for their starting bid of $149.99. These nicely modeled boots were a size 9 and made in Italy by Mignani.  The seller stated the boots were 40 years old and "from the era of the original thigh-high boots."

These boots feature an interesting tie/bow detail in the rear as well as the ability to be worn cuffed. The wooden stacked heels almost remind me of vintage Dingo boots.

Candela "Cloti" black leather OTK boots sell well on Tradesy

Not on eBay, but on Tradesy, these gently used Candela "Cloti" style over-the-knee black leather boots in a popular size 10 sold for an impressive $190.00.  The seller indicated these boots originally retailed for $517.00.

Gently used might be putting it mildly, as these boots appear new from the photos, especially since it appears that one of the buckles still has protective wrapping over it in the first photo.  It also appears that the box is included as it's pictured behind the boots.

This style is a few years old now and it seems to be especially hard to find in a large size.  After being listed for what seems like a few months, someone got wise and finally decided to snap these up!  It's nice to know that this style, one of my current favorites in my own boot collection, still has good resale value online.

Candela "Cloti" over-the-knee boots make a rare appearance on eBay

Although the auction was ended early because "the item was no longer available for sale," I couldn't resist sharing the nicely modeled photos of these caramel-colored Candela "Cloti" boots.  These boots rarely appear on eBay.

These size 9 boots were listed on eBay with a Buy It Now price of $220.  The seller indicated they were only worn twice.  Although the seller didn't show these boots cuffed, I know from personal experience that they can be worn cuffed for a different look.  Again, the perfect style to wear with skinny jeans (not bad with shorts, either!).






Vintage burgundy boots sell well!

Even without better photos and pricey $21 shipping, these vintage 1980s burgundy leather boots sold for an impressive $90.99.

These vintage boots were a size 8 and made in Spain for The Broadway.  I especially like the tall, narrow stacked heels and clean pull-on styling.  These would look great worn over skinny jeans.

It's nice to see that timeless boots like these are still sought after!

Beautiful vintage OTK boots from Amsterdam sell very well

A seller in Amsterdam got a very deserving $183.50 for these beautiful vintage dark brown leather over-the-knee boots.  International shipping was even a reasonable $20.00.

With the narrow stacked heel and straight shaft, the style of these boots is timeless.  Even better, they were a popular size EU 41 (US 10).  In fact, they look so dark in the photos, I originally thought they were black.  Of course, these would look amazing worn over skinny jeans.

The seller stated that they came from a vintage store in Amsterdam, and given that city's history, you have to wonder if these boots have a colorful past!

Some real deals on my new favorite boot style!

Someone got a real deal on my new favorite style of boot on eBay.  These size 7 Candela "Cloti" black leather OTK boots with stacked heels sold for only $43!  Talk about a steal, especially since they originally retailed for $517.00 and were NEW WITH BOX!  These boots were listed with a Buy It Now price of $196.46.





I especially like the vintage style of these over-the-knee boots complete with stacked heels, buckle details, and the ability to wear them cuffed or uncuffed.  These would look amazing paired with skinny jeans and a black leather jacket.

Apparently, there are real deals to be found on these stunning boots as these size 8 boots, WORN ONCE by the seller, sold for only $39.99.

Now, just to find a pair in my size!

Vintage 1970s hand-dyed Italian OTK boots

I really like the style of these vintage 1970s Italian leather OTK boots, especially the stacked heels.  The seller stated that these were "hand-dyed" black with deep red highlights.  Someone got a good deal on these size 7.5 boots, which sold for only $51.00.

They cuff nicely, but really make a statement when they're worn uncuffed and over-the-knee.

Vintage 1970s over-the-knee Italian boots



These vintage 1970s burgundy stacked heel over-the-knee boots sold for a decent $72.88. Some lucky buyer got a pair of quality-Italian made boots in a popular size 9. These will look great worn over skinny jeans.

It just goes to show how some boot styles never go out of style.
