Chunky Heel Oxfords Appraisal

Women's Black Patent Leather Platform Oxfords

This pair of women's shoes consists of a lace-up oxford style set atop a significant chunk-heel platform. The upper is constructed from a high-shine black patent finish, likely synthetic or coated leather, featuring a textured, slightly crinkled grain pattern. The design includes a rounded toe box and a four-eyelet lacing system with thick, round black laces. The construction reveals a vulcanized or heavily glued sole made of matte black rubber with a lug-style tread for traction. The heel is a thick block style, approximately 2.5 to 3 inches in height, integrated into a chunky platform that extends under the forefoot. Stylistically, these shoes represent the '90-inspired grunge or 'goth' fashion aesthetic that saw a massive resurgence in the late 2010s. Notable condition details include visible creasing across the toe box (vamp) where the foot naturally flexes, common with patent materials. There is some light scuffing on the interior heel counters and minor dust/debris on the rubber soles. No visible maker's marks are present in the provided image. The overall quality appears to be mass-market fashion grade, prioritizing aesthetic impact and durability through thick synthetic materials and heavy soles.
