A pair of knee-high boots in deep forest green suede with a sleek, streamlined silhouette characteristic of late 1960s footwear. The boots feature a moderate block heel approximately 2-3 inches high and a fitted shaft that follows the natural line of the leg. The suede material has a rich, matte finish with subtle texture variations. The toe is gently rounded rather than pointed, reflecting the softer aesthetic emerging in the late 1960s. The construction appears to be machine-stitched with clean seaming along the back and sides. These boots exemplify Biba's accessible interpretation of mod and space-age styling, offering a practical yet fashionable alternative to the more extreme geometric footwear of the early decade.
