These boots are sharp and have an edgy silhouette. My cobbler in Nashville just polished them, which cost me 25 dollars. They are beautiful boots with a goat leather upper and leather sole, they are also made in Italy. Bought at a rag and bone store in Manhattan for $500. Please enjoy them! These are amazing boots. Size 7.5. I am raising money for my healthcare costs. Your purchase supports me seeing a pelvic floor specialist. I am in a lot of pain and your purchase means something to me! I no longer am a footwear designer I work as a teacher and have had to stop working while I recover. Thank you, Caroll
