These boots are so beautiful! They do have some flaws. The heels need to be resoled. The leather is manufactured to be distressed but there is more unintentional distressing. The back zippers are functional, just not super smooth. They could probably just use some conditioning. The tongue on one boot is wrinkled. Please see all photos. These boots are absolutely wearable, they just need a bit of a makeover.
