Aquatalias last forever and ever and that’s why they cost the way they do. This handsome black leather pair has weathered Seattle rain and snow and still looks in tiptop shape. The classic almond toe defies trends and will always look contemporary. The elastic gussets are in great shape. The stitched last adds to the shoes’ durability. The boots have scuffs (see pictures), creases, marks. The outer soles in the toe area have started to wear away; nothing that a good resoling can’t fix. Otherwise the booties are structurally sound and will go on for years with proper care. Selling because I prefer zip up booties rather than pull-on ones.
