I ended up buying another pair of long boots, so these are unused. The photos of me wearing them were taken with socks on. They are not platform boots. They reach below the knee. I thought I bought them from GRL, but I couldn't find any record of these boots in my purchase history, so where I bought them from is a mystery. Please purchase only if you don't mind the brand. ※I have a dog. Stains, tears, odors, etc. ... None Material: Faux leather Color: Black
