DescriptionBrown leather knee-high boots, with a black zipper closure. The toes are round, and the stacked leather heels are 2 1/4 inches high, and almost straight. The vamp is cut with a tongue-like extension covering the center front seam for the length of the foot. The boots are also seamed at the center back, and have a hidden insertion of elastic at the inside of the calf. The opposite side of the upper calf is darted for a close fit. The boots are lined along the top edge with brown leather, and through the rest of the upper with black knit synthetic fabric. The soles, which are black plastic, are shaped for the right and left foot.
