These are spectacular! They're made by Golo one of the leading boot manufacturers of the 60s. They're made of brown leather with brown patent leather piping. They are a size 8 1/2 but please keep in mind that you must have a thin calf. There is no zipper. You have to just wriggle them on! They measure about 18 3/4 inches tall, including the two and three-quarter inch wrapped leather heel, a measure 3 1/4 inches wide and about 12 inches around the calf, this is a narrow measurement. The leather has a slight stretch to it, but not much. These are meant to fit like skin. I photographed the top of one of them where the lining is starting to separate from the Boutte, it does not go all the way down, it just needs to be stitched around the top to make them more perfect.
