Solkin ankle boots with thick sole - dark silver-shimmering leather

Such fine ankle boots from Gabor! The leather has a stylish slight silver sheen, yet the overall look is quite dark. The buckle decorations on the outer sides add a nice touch of character; under the upper buckle, there is a small widening strip that allows a bit of adjustment for the shaft’s fit. The shoes have zippers on the inner sides for putting them on. A sharp style for many occasions and outfits!

Maria the merchant’s medium-width feet – details:

• Not a high instep and not a low instep
• A “flipper” shape, meaning the toes are almost equally long, with no pronounced curve at the toe line 😊
• A slightly rounded toe box suits best; very pointed shapes often don’t have enough room for Maria’s big toe
• Usually wears size 43, with a medium-wide G last or a wide H last
• In barefoot shoes, typically size 42, because there’s enough room for the toes
• Length of the longer foot 26.8 cm
• Width at the ball of the foot 11 cm

Maria’s size choice would be 43. Size 42.5 might be better in length, but Maria’s wider feet require size 43. There was plenty of room for the toes, and overall the fit of Gabor’s G last is good for Maria’s feet. Such nice-feeling, so cool shoes!
