Fornarina Black Leather Knee-High Boots, size 38





Well this is kind of heartbreaking because I LOVE these boots but they're just not fit for my lifestyle. They are made from a very soft, almost slouchy black leather and have a black ribbed wool sock/legwarmer built in that peeks out the top of the boot. Really, really cool over both skinny pants and with dresses/skirts. I'm pretty picky about boots and felt like I'd found the holy grail of boot shapes when I came across these... alas it was not meant to be.

Size: 38, US size 7. Should be pretty true to size ( I usually wear a 6/6.5 but like to wear a 7 in boots to accommodate thicker socks, and with thick socks or an insole these become a perfect fit for me).

heel height: about 3 inches.

Condition: Basically new, excellent condition. I have worn them exactly twice and they've otherwise been stored in their original box since I bought them. There is some very minor wear to the leather on the back of the heel (see photo), which, from my experience, seems to be par for the course as soon as you wear any sort of leather-covered heel.

Why I'm letting them go: I am so in love with the style of these, but the reality is that I'm bad in heels and just never wear them b/c I'm always doing a lot of walking. I am positive that someone else will get great pleasure out of these guys.

Paid: $225.
Asking: $90 + shipping (from Canada)

Listing Ends: November 9th.
