1960s 70s reptile skin Japanese platform boots 5 1/2

Description

Wow. Museum-worthy 1960s 70s orange-red reptile skin square-toe Japanese platform boots with a triple stacked platform and wood heels. Lined in a grey leather. Leather soles. Side metal zipper opening. The original owner was a Japanese woman who lived in both the US and Japan.

label: SL Original’s Tokyo

condition: Amazing condition, no noticeable issues and appear to be worn very little. A couple of imperfections on the reptile skin, but most appear to be original to the leather. Most notable one is on the toe of the left boot. Small retail tag holes at the back of each heel, see close-ups. Recommend conditioning the skin prior to wear as these have been in storage for several decades and are a little stiff.
