When it comes to boots, leather is the material du jour—and the more exotic the leather, the more fashionable the boot. Add in a fashionable designer like Louis Vuitton or, say, Manolo Blahnik and you have a recipe for the most expensive boots in the world.
Spanish fashion designer Manolo Blahnik bought his first boutique, located in London and formerly known as Zapata, in 1972. Since then, he has opened several other boutiques in metropolitan locales such as New York, Dubai and Hong Kong. He has been referenced in music by artists ranging from Beyoncé Knowles to Weird Al Yankovic and television shows from “Will & Grace” to “Angel.”
These boots, featuring heels typical of Blahnik’s designs, are made with alligator skin and reach up to just below the knee. They’re valued at a phenomenal $14,000 and were available at Malano Blahnik’s New York boutique on West 54th Street.
