Fringed faux suede ankle boots with a folded cuff
These fringed faux suede ankle boots by Step in Style have a lot going on, and that is the idea. A wide cuff folds down over the ankle. A bundle of long fringes hangs at the side, and a thin strap wraps around it all. Under that sit a pointed toe and a block heel.
The heel is 10 cm and the shaft is 15 cm, according to the maker. Black and dark brown are available, in a few sizes each.

The piece: what we corrected on this page
The old title called these suede mid-calf boots. Neither word holds. The maker lists the material as imitation suede, and a 15 cm shaft makes them ankle boots. The maker's own category is ankle boots too.
Two models are active: 217179 in black and 221129 in brown. The maker describes the brown pair with an overlapping upper, pointed toes, fringes and thin straps with gold-tone buckles. For the black pair the supplier gives measurements and no text. The photos show the same boot. Two more colours in the gallery, a second brown and a taupe, are gone.
Who it's for
For you if your wardrobe is calm and your shoes are allowed to be loud. These boots carry an outfit of jeans and a plain jumper on their own.
You should be at ease on a high heel. Ten centimetres is high, even on a block. And you need a size between 38 and 41, because that is what is left.

Materials and build: faux suede with a fabric footbed
The upper is imitation suede, according to the maker, so no animal skin. In the photos it has the brushed, matte look of suede. The footbed is fabric. The data does not say what the sole is made of, and it gives no lining.
Size and fit: insole length per size
The maker gives the insole length: 25 cm for 38, 25.5 cm for 39, 26 cm for 40 and 26.5 cm for 41. The smaller sizes in the table, 23.5 cm for 36 and 24.5 cm for 37, are not in stock.
Measure your foot from heel to longest toe. With a pointed toe and a 10 cm heel the foot slides forward a little, so a few millimetres of spare length are welcome.

| 40 | 26 |
| 41 | 26.5 |

Styling: keep the ankle in view
All the detail sits at ankle height, so do not cover it. In the photos the boots are worn with bare legs. Cropped jeans, a short skirt or a midi dress that ends above the cuff will show them properly.
The maker suggests both casual and more formal outfits. We would lean casual: fringes and a festival mood go together.
Occasions
Wear them to a concert, a night out or a birthday. They also dress up an ordinary Saturday in town. For a long day on your feet, the heel is on the high side.
Care: a soft brush
The maker gives no care instructions. A suede-look surface is usually cleaned with a soft, dry brush, and it does not like rain. Comb the fringes with your fingers after wearing so they hang straight.
The wow detail: fringes that move
The fringes hang from the top of the cuff almost down to the sole. Every step sets them swinging. In a photo they are a detail. On the street they are the first thing people see, because nothing else on your outfit moves like that.
