FREE PEOPLE Black Forest/AREA FORTE Lady Mozart Over-the-Knee Boots

Edgy, moto style black stonewash effect suede and stretch leather ladder strap over-the-knee boots. Rubber and stacked leather sole with 1" grooved detail block heel. Inside partial zip. Measures 22in to top of boot from heel; vented/split at the back knee. There is a small hole/tear on the outer stretch layer of the inside left ankle which does not go through to the inside, and could be repaired with a light fabric iron-on patch (will be included with purchase) or left as is, as it does not compromise wearability. Full disclosure: the soles of these boots are marked Area Forte, while the insole is marked Free People, and from my research, these are independent brands. I have found and included images of the same style for both brands as shown; while this style is no longer available through Free People, they are still listed on the Area Forte (Italy) website. The listing price reflects style and overall quality, but I cannot verify brand.
