Description: Black leather menswear ‘Sunrise’ stacked heel boots from the early 1970s, a time of flamboyance and showiness in fashion, for both men and women. In footwear, this included platform boots and shoes, which drew attention to their wearers by – literally – placing them on platforms! The mood owed a lot to the stage costumes of musical stars such as David Bowie and Elton John.
Possibly by 'Master John' of Toronto, who produced high-heeled boots specifically for men's fashion.
