For those whom read this review to know if it is comfortable for a night-long party ,then am sorry to disappoint, this boot was bought solely for the purpose of short time wearing in non exhausting conditions ,yet they should know that this is a very high platform boots ,so it comes with its own bundle of fatigue (unless you are used to wear such boots in everyday life).
The material is amazing,soft ,non cracked and doesn't crack by sharp bents like some other cheap boots,it is so soft and shiny from the outside ,and so comfortable from the inside .the inside material allows you to easy slip the boot in and out ,doesn't cause bad oder or excessive sweating ,cleaning is so easy with a piece of micro-fiber cloth and a few drops of leather (or even glass) cleaning spray.
The boot itself is very well made ,it lives to the manufacturer (Pleaser) hype and reputation ,the size was amazingly accurate ,stitching is clean with no excess threads, no glue spots ,just a piece of clean work! my concern (as with most zippers) that the zipper will be cheap and easily break upon use ,or with tension locking,so we used it with care at first and tried to tighten the boots with the laces only,but then it proved us wrong ,and the zipper proved to be sturdy and dependable.
The manufacturer doest miss some fine details ,like providing a harness along the entire length of the zipper and beneath it so,so you can never pinch your skin or hair by accident,so rest assured ,there are no (ouches!).
Finally ,the packaging was amazing ,it clearly tells you :I am a premium product ,not a cheap crap!!the box is big ,and well styled and made,so you can use it to store the boots when you are not using them.
I cant help it but to give the boots 5 stars , I wanted to give it 4 stars over 2 issues,first it is heavy,II mean really heavy ,but then this is a thigh -high platform fetish boot,it should be heavy.
2nd the price ,but as this is highly a matter of personal opinion, I decided to be honest and go with 5 stars.
Highly recommended ,for those whom into alt-lifestyle (goth,fetish).
