Trask Short Ankle Boots in Size 8 Medium.... Suede Ankle Boots. The shaft measures from where the approx. 6 1/2" from where the heel meets the suede--depending on your calf length they might be a bit above the ankle A zipper on each side they both go up and down but the one under the buckle is faux. Smooth leather inside the shaft. Buckle accent around the top of the boots with a brass buckle. 2 3/8" block heel. Skid-resistant rubber on the boot sole. Padded footbed for comfort. Gently worn...there are rubs but no real flaws noted but these are not new...if you go over them carefully you will find tiny things that tell you they have been pre-enjoyed. From my non-smoking home.
