Womens Black Unisa Chelsea Style Ankle Boot Appraisal

Women's Black 'Unisa' Chelsea Style Ankle Boot

This item is a single women's black Chelsea style ankle boot. The boot features an embossed or printed 'lizard skin' texture across the majority of its upper, giving it a distinctive patterned appearance. The material appears to be synthetic leather or a similar durable synthetic, presenting a subtle sheen. Complementing this texture is an elasticized goring on the sides, characteristic of Chelsea boots, rendered in a plain black material which could be a textile such as elastic webbing or a stretch-knit fabric. The boot has a pointed toe silhouette, contributing to a sleek and modern aesthetic. It is fitted with a sturdy block heel, approximately 1 to 1.5 inches in height, which appears to be made of stacked leather or a synthetic material mimicking stacked leather, finished in black. The sole of the boot is visible, made of a dark-colored, likely synthetic, material. The brand name 'UNISA.' is clearly embossed or printed on the sole in a white or light-colored font, followed by a faint number '38' which likely indicates the shoe size. The boot shows signs of moderate wear, particularly on the sole and heel, consistent with general use. There are no obvious signs of significant damage such as tears or deep scuffs on the upper, though minor scuffs might be present given the used condition. The overall construction suggests a mass-produced item, possibly from the late 20th or early 21st century. The craftsmanship appears to be of good quality for a contemporary fashion boot, with even stitching and well-formed lines.
