Céline Paris Phoebe Philo Black Stretch Knit Sock Ankle Boot Block Heel EU 38

A coveted piece from Phoebe Philo's tenure at Céline — the black stretch knit sock ankle boot is one of the most iconic silhouettes of that era. The form-fitting grosgrain-style knit upper hugs the foot and ankle seamlessly, finished with a sculptural stacked dark wood block heel and a squared toe. Minimal, architectural, and deeply wearable. Details Brand: Céline Paris Size: EU 38 (US ~7.5–8) Color: Black Material: Stretch knit upper; leather insole; stacked wood block heel Style: Sock ankle boot, pull-on, square toe Features: Seamless sock construction, ribbed knit texture, rubber heel cap Made in: Italy Measurements (approx, flat) Shaft height: ~5.5" Heel height: ~2.75" Toe box: Square, narrow Condition: Great preowned condition overall. Upper knit is clean and intact with no snags, pulls, or distortion. Soles show normal wear. Interior lining has lifted and will need to be re-glued — a simple cobbler repair (noted and priced accordingly). Heels show wear consistent with use but retain full structure. Fit note: True to EU 38; the stretch knit accommodates a slightly narrow or standard foot well. ✦ Value note: This Phoebe Philo-era Céline style retailed at $890–$1,190+ and is highly sought on the secondary market — a rare find in size 38.
