Get a load of the toe profile on this looker.  I'd say they are at least from the late 1940's.  Not much more to say about them but if I owned them, I'd have the heels made tighter around the heel counter - there's just a little too much overhang for my taste; otherwise, these are great boots!

I'd pay exactly what they sold for in Japan, but nothing more.  Something tells me these would sell for at least double if listed on a US auction.
