Side zipper and hook. I bought these final sale and couldn’t return them. There was supposed to be a knotted string that you can hook, but that was broken. So if you buy these you’d probably have to quickly sew something to be able to hook into. I’m 5’4 ish and these aren’t too long. Look best in heels or boot. Pricing a lot lower than what I bought them for because of the hook issue, otherwise I will just throw away.
