An ankle-high boot with a round toe and a full lace-up front through metal eyelets, plus a side zip for actually getting it on and off. It sits on a thick front platform and an 8-inch stiletto heel, and comes in either a high-shine patent finish or a matte satin-look black, both built for stage and performance styling. The side zip does the real work of getting the boot on and off, while the laces are there to fine-tune the fit snugly around the foot and ankle once it's in place. Sized from 36 to 43, it's built specifically for repeat performance and stage use rather than as a single-wear costume piece.
