Hope STHLM black ankle boots, size 41 (US 10)

I fell in love with these boots after seeing them on Les Anti-Modernes, but have finally accepted that they are not going to fit me! I wore them lightly, but did try to stretch them with shoe stretchers. Since this process wasn't successful (I'm an 11 and they are too tight for me still) I'd say they are still a 10, maybe a tiny bit roomier than they were before.

The leather is somewhat creased (less noticeable when worn) - see photos. This may be from the stretchers as I only wore them two or three times. There is also a ding on one of the heels - again, see photo. (The flash has made them look a little more glossy than they actually are but I wanted to show all the details.)

I did have non-slip soles added by a great cobbler in Chicago.

Paid approximately $400, not including adding the soles. Asking $200 including shipping.
