| Minimalist Mid-Heel Chelsea Boots Women: Choose this if you want a Simons-exclusive Chelsea boot designed in Canada, with a genuine nubuck leather upper, elastic side panels, a back pull loop, and a 5 cm (2 inch) chunky block heel on a textured rubber platform sole. It comes in women's sizes 36 to 41 in Black and Brown, with a removable faux-leather and foam footbed. Note that the lining is faux-leather rather than leather, so it may not suit shoppers wanting an all-leather interior.[1,2,3] | Block-Heel Leather Boot Exclusive Collection From Italy Women: Choose this if you want an Italian-made ankle boot in genuine leather with a leather lining and padded leather footbed, styled with a pointed toe and a stacked block heel of 7.5 cm (3 inches). The side zip makes it easy on and off, and it comes in Black or Brown in sizes 36 to 41. Note the outer sole is made of other materials rather than leather, with a non-skid insert only at the heel, and no collar padding is visible at the topline.[4,5] | Black Leather Kitten Heel Boot Exclusive Collection From Italy Women: Choose this if you want an Italian-made, Simons-exclusive knee-high boot in black leather with a low 2-inch (5 cm) flared kitten heel, pointed toe, and an inner side zip for easy on and off. It suits wearers who prefer a tall, straight-cylindrical shaft with an opening circumference of about 14.5 inches (37 cm), plus comfort touches like a padded footbed with a leather top cover and a leather-and-textile lining, in sizes 36 to 41. Note the smooth outer sole is made of unspecified other materials rather than leather, which may matter if you care about full leather construction.[6,7,8,9] |
