I am sorry, there are no more pages with these boots.

But I found two other boots exhibited at Bata shoe museum:

You can explore the two photos, just try it.

Have fun,

The swedish boots we talk about are said to be from the 30s. They are now on display at the Bata Shoe Museum, Toronto, Canada.

I have attached a link to a scan of a vintage magazine page featuring these boots (horrible quality - sorry!):

These are truly one of a kind!

I have some pics of these boots worn by a lady and it seems she was no performer. Will send them after scanning. They seem to be featured in "London Life" magazine of the 30s.

...not really fashion, a little more fetish. But they wouldn't have caught the eye under a long skirt those days:

What do you think?

I think I should introduce myself first: I am a 37 year old german guy with a solid love for vintage high heels, especially for vintage high heeled boots. My focus is on the classic pin up time (1950ies) and the years back to the 1920ies. I also try to collect some boots of this period, especially from a shoemaker named Berger. I am a regular member to some german high heel communities and this is my first try to get in contact with like minded people from all over the world. I hope to find some other people with an interest in vintage high heels, boots, gloves and other fine clothing. My first question: Is there anyone who could tell me how to get my avatar online?
