G by GUESS Women's Jaylee Side Zip Lace-Up Heeled Boots Size 9M Black with Gold Accent Hardware There are zippers on the outside and the inside of this boot. The gold zipper on the outside is not a functional zipper and is for decorative purposes only. The inside zipper is fully functional, so you can slip your boots on easily. Also, these are lace-up boots so you can tighten or loosen them as desired. All man-made materials. Round toe with a high block heel that measures at 3-3.9 inches. Worn twice and got tons of compliments both times. I love them so much, but I have a knee issue that won't allow me to wear high heels anymore. These boots are gorgeous! Shoebox not provided
