Black Patent Thigh High Stiletto Boots

Black patent, thigh high, stiletto heel, laced all the way up the back. These are not a costume and they were not bought for a photo. They are mine, they have been worn properly, and there is a reason I am only letting them go now.

Everything about them is deliberate. The patent catches every bit of light in a room. The lacing takes real time to do up, which is rather the point, and the heel is high enough that you can hear me coming before you see me. They come up over the knee and sit where they should, which cheap ones never do.

There is honest wear on them. Scuffs on the heel tips, a few marks on the toes, and the shine is slightly softer than it was new. That is what happens to boots that get used rather than photographed. If you wanted pristine, buy pristine. You are here because you want the ones I have actually been wearing.

The inside is the part people forget to ask about. Hours inside patent, laced tight, with no air getting anywhere near my feet. Send unwashed and untreated and you will understand exactly what I mean when they arrive.
