A jewelry-forward pair of BCBGMAXAZRIA flat sandals with the ornate, layered detailing
associated with 2000s footwear.

Wide taupe-grey leather bands cross the forefoot, each set with oversized faceted
clear embellishments that catch the light with a smoky, mirrored finish. Tan woven
cord threads through the center of the upper and ties over the vamp, adding soft
texture and a slightly utilitarian contrast to the polished stones.

Slim leather straps extend toward adjustable ankle closures, while square open toes
and low stacked-look heels keep the silhouette streamlined. Dark taupe footbeds,
visible perimeter stitching, and warm brown sole edges complete the tonal construction.

The leather has developed natural variation and visible wear over time. One faceted
embellishment is missing from the outer edge of one lower forefoot band and is disclosed
clearly in the condition notes.

Wear them with faded denim, a washed silk dress, cropped trousers, a narrow midi
skirt, or relaxed summer tailoring. Their combination of muted leather, oversized
embellishment, and cord lacing also works beautifully with mixed-metal jewelry and
tonal neutral dressing.

**Fit Notes**

Marked US 7½ M and estimated to best fit a modern women’s US 7/7.5.

The open toe and adjustable ankle buckles provide some flexibility. The woven forefoot
cord can be retied to adjust tension over the vamp, but the primary leather bands
and square footbed remain fixed. The silhouette appears relatively streamlined and
may fit best on a medium or slightly narrower foot.

Approximate modern international equivalents are UK 5/5.5, EU/FR/IT 37.5/38, and
JP 23.5/24. These conversions are guidance rather than guaranteed equivalents because
fit varies by production period, foot shape, instep height, strap placement, and
preferred toe room.

**Condition**

**Good Vintage Condition.**

The taupe-grey leather uppers show visible age and prior wear, including surface
rubbing, creasing, darkened edges, tonal variation, scattered marks, and areas of
discoloration. The primary forefoot bands and side straps remain attached and retain
their structure.

The oversized faceted clear embellishments show scattered surface scratching, clouding,
and tonal variation. One embellishment is missing from the outer edge of one lower
forefoot band, leaving the dark circular attachment area visible. The remaining 
visible embellishments appear present.

The tan woven cord laces remain attached to both sandals and show light discoloration,
handling wear, and minor fraying. Their metal end caps remain present, and the cords
appear functional.

The dark taupe footbeds show visible spotting, impressions, rubbing, and discoloration
from prior wear. The BCBGMAXAZRIA branding remains legible.

The adjustable ankle straps and buckles remain present. Visible wear includes rubbing
and darkening along the straps, creasing near the buckle holes, and age-related 
tarnish or discoloration to the hardware.

The leather outsoles show walking wear, surface scratching, discoloration, and edge
rubbing. The perimeter stitching remains visible, and the low stacked-look heels
retain their shape.

No completely detached structural strap, major sole separation, collapsed heel, 
or other obvious structural failure is visible in the photos. Please review all 
images closely, particularly the missing embellishment, leather surfaces, cords,
buckles, footbeds, outsole edges, and heels.

**Styling Notes**

Pair these with a washed silk dress, cropped utility trousers, faded denim, or an
airy neutral skirt.

For a stronger 2000s treatment, add an oversized shoulder bag, stacked bangles, 
softly tinted eyewear, and a fitted tank or draped jersey top.
