These Free People black leather ankle books are in 7 out to 10 condition. They have a few scuff marks and some small damaged areas that are shown. Mainly on the left boot where my cat accidentally scratched one of them. There is another minor mark on the right boot as well. They have a back zipper. Both zippers work great. They have about a 1.5 inch platform heel. These are a size 39. Which means they will fit a size 8.5 to a 9. They fit true to size in my opinion. These boots are really versatile and can go with so many different looks/ kinds of outfits.
