Hi slavetolove,

IBL70 and webhawk have pointed you in the right direction. I'm pretty sure they are Renzi, a second label of Gianmarco Lorenzi. They are nice, but not up to the sheer luxuary of the main GML brand.

I can vouch for the e-bay store, Primafila-shop. They have always provided me with quick, professional shipping - even though I find their posting rates a bit high.

If you take larger sizes, they have them up to 45 euro, but you will pay dearly for them using the Buy It Now option. Check back frequently for the auctions in larger sizes. Sometimes you can get really lucky if you're willing to pony up. And the auctions for the larger sizes seem to run in cycles. Right now, nothing greater than a 42 euro, but in the fall of 2007, there was a ton of activity. Thats when I went broke.

Good luck in your hunt.

Cheers!

Yup, just to add on to what Lorenziluvrr, IBL70 and Webhawk have said - it could be any one of Santa Cruz, Loriblu or Gianmarco Lorenzi. From the looks of it though, it does seem to me that it is a Santa Cruz pair. I have two pairs in black leather (one pair with the metal heel, and the other in the normal style).

With respect to what Lorenziluvrr has said, I have ordered from both Primafila and GML boutique and both have impressed with their prompt service and excellent communications. I have ordered more from Primafila though, primarily because they carry GML, and Santa Cruz in their eBay store. GML boutique has GML and Loriblu and Icone though - I am looking out for a size 42 overknees black leather from Icone on the GML boutique eBay store to no avail. Yup, there was a ton of activity in 2007 on Primafila shop - heck, Lorenziluvrr and I may have been bidding against each other on the same items (and went broke at the same time - I am still recovering from that hit today)!

Postage is ok to me I guess, have paid more to other individual sellers and they weren't even as fast.

Finally, a 42 will fit a US 10.5 great - good luck with your hunt! You won't regret purchasing these though I favour GML the best (haven't tried Icone stuff yet though cos they always happen to be just one size too small...grr).

Best regards

Some pics to share

Are they the ICONE boots you are looking for ? I confirm they are great , the leather is very soft , they feel like gloves on you legs a real pleasure , very pointed toes . very nice boots for sure . Hope you'll get them soon , and then tell me what you think . they are like a Ferrari !

Aaargh!!!

Yup, those are the exact ones I am looking for! I am in touch with Sergey from eBay (GML-Italia Boutique) and he says that the new range will be in by next week. Luckily I held off from buying the Loriblu patent knee high boots in the meantime. Can't wait to get a pair of these. I am so jealous now. What size do you wear? I am a 42 which is why it's hard to get suitable pairs sometime. How high are the heels? Are they 4 or 5 inches? Some sellers on eBay list it ranging from 4 to 5 inches depending on the size.

I am just waiting for the Icones to complete my collection (as I have said) so that I can compare properly between Santa Cruz, Gianmarco Lorenzi and Icone. So far, Gianmarco Lorenzi is my fave - very, very sexy boots and pumps indeed. Santa Cruz is good "externally", but not so good "internally" since I prefer my boots to be leather-lined.

For pumps, I like ALDOs, Nine West and Stuart Weitzman.

To the rest of the forumers, sorry for the "out of topic" discussion.
