Vintage black leather thigh-high boots sell for $435!

A boot seller in Switzerland sold these vintage 1970s/1980s black leather thigh-high boots for a very impressive $434.83.  These 38.5 / US 8 boots featured very clean lines, almond toes, and a nice narrow, stacked heel.  Unfortunately, the seller did not list the brand but there is something with a turtle(?) logo on the photo inside the shaft.  Otherwise, the heels and insides look like vintage Italian boots.

These boots featured a very walkable 3.7" heels and an impressive 25" upper above the heels.  For as tall as these boots are, it does not appear that they are meant to be worn cuffed.

This is a classic, timeless style boot that I can see being worn with skinny jeans or a pencil skirt.

Rare Wild Pair chap boots...brand new in box!

These rare vintage "Wild Pair" style black leather chap boots by Euro Club in a small size 6.5 sold for $299.  The seller stated these were Brand New in Box and not even tried on.  The style, appropriately, is "Whip."

As the bottom photo shows, I really think these could have sold for a lot more had they been a larger size.  Or possibly if the seller had offered international shipping.

The seller's text says it best:
These could possibly be a pair of the rarest chap boots on the planet. These are vintage, black leather, BRAND NEW IN THE BOX Euro Club by Sebastian Platto chap boots made for and sold at Wild Pair stores back in the 80's. Not only are they brand new never been worn, I don't believe these have ever been tried on! Very similar to the rare, highly sought after and desirable Wild Pair chap boots that have recently sold as high as $625-675 as evidenced in pic 12. Those are sold for prices not listed prices and they were not new with the box like this pair. I believe these Euro Club boots to be higher end and even more rare then the Wild Pair version. In fact, I have never seen another pair of these anywhere or for sale. These would be great to add to a collection, used as cosplay or would be the ultimate conversation piece if used as motorcycle chap boots! These are a holy grail find and I'm willing to pass them on from my collection for the right price! Soft, glossy and gorgeous leather, REAL FULL BLACK LEATHER UPPERS, man made sole, made in Chile, Size 6.5, 4" heel, approx 45" total height. Adjustable 35" distressed silver tone belt. Finish on belt buckle has lifted a little due to age but this or any other belt can be used. Boots appear as brand new and box is in good condition considering its age. Sale includes boots, original box and belt. No messages with offers below minimum bid please. No returns, No international shipping, Thank you for looking at these amazing boots!





















A real deal on mens' crotch-high brown leather cowboy boots

All of the boots below were recently sold by eBay seller "suedensteele"

The same seller practically gave away these size 38 Marc Jacobs brown leather OTK boots for $28.  They had a Buy It Now price of $100.  Interesting as the black pair did not sell for its starting bid of $75.  Another seller has those listed in a small size 6.5 for $495!

Again, totally grooving on that studded strap detail.  I've always thought this style would look great paired with a black leather jacket for rock concert date night!

Finally, the same seller only got $25 for these nicely modeled brown leather OTK boots in a size 38.  These 24" tall boots have some of the slouchy style which is popular this season.

Dolce Vita black leather OTK boots nicely modeled

These very nice Dolce Vita OTK boots sold for an impressive $119.99.  Nicely modeled, these boots were a size 9.5 and the seller stated they were only worn twice.  I especially like the strap detailing near the opening.

As the seller stated, "Truly awesome power boots!"




Vintage Dolce and Gabbana boots fetch a deserving $399

These vintage Dolce and Gabbana thigh-high boots rarely appear on eBay, so it's no surprise they fetched a deserving $399.  In a nice large size 40 / US10, these boots appeared to be in excellent condition.  The leather on these looks amazing and buttery soft.  The seller stated these boots originally retailed for $1,250!

I especially like how they can be worn cuffed for a completely different look.  In fact, the cuff on these is so long, they almost look like very sexy pirate or buccaneer boots!

Definitely one of my favorite styles of vintage boots and without a doubt, some of the sexiest boots I've ever seen!

Gianmarco Lorenzi super sexy stiletto boots

A seller in the Ukraine sold these super sexy Gianmarco Lorenzi stiletto boots for their starting bid of $89.  These unusually styled boots were a small size 36/6.

I especially like the hardware, pointy toes, and super sexy stiletto heels.  The hardware, especially the ankle strap, gives these a Western feel.
