Product Insights & Style Tips
The Gigi 135MM Leather Platform Ankle Boots from Marc Jacobs are unapologetically bold—a power move in polished black leather with attitude to spare. The exaggerated block heel and commanding platform create a sculptural silhouette that glances back at glam rock but lands squarely in the now, while the round toe keeps things balanced and grounded. A front zipper cut with silvertone J Marc hardware feels instantly iconic, giving each step a jolt of downtown-cool energy and unmistakable brand DNA. These boots don’t just enter a room—they redefine it.
With a 5.25-inch stacked heel and substantial 2.25-inch platform, The Gigi lifts and lengthens without sacrificing that steady, all-night stance. The zip front makes slipping them on less of a ritual and more of a statement, while the polyurethane footbed works quietly behind the scenes to keep things comfortable, even as the look goes all in. The leather upper molds to your shape, hugging the ankle just so, and transitions easily from layered fall outfits to micro-minis or kick-flare trousers. There's just enough real estate for your essentials—think a statement sock or the flash of skin between boot top and hem.
Marc Jacobs has always leaned into fearless footwear, and The Gigi slots seamlessly into that lineage. Channel the current obsession with sky-high platforms (see: every reimagined ‘70s-meets-’90s runway) and pair with a slouched midi skirt or abbreviated denim. These boots aren’t just a finishing touch—they’re the engine of the entire look.

Recommended Care
- Wipe clean with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth after wear to remove dirt and dust from leather.
- Store boots in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat to prevent leather drying or cracking.
- Avoid excessive moisture; if boots get wet, stuff with paper to maintain shape and air dry naturally away from direct heat sources.
- Use a leather conditioner periodically to maintain suppleness and prevent cracks.
- Do not machine wash or submerge in water.
- For the polyurethane footbed, wipe with a damp cloth only if necessary.
- Consider using shoe trees or stuffing when storing to keep the shape crisp and structured.
