Era / Decade
Late 2010s to early 2020s based on the 'Steve Madden' block font label and popular strappy gladiator-lite aesthetic.
Material
Synthetic metallic gold upper, polyurethane/man-made lining, leather sock/insole, and man-made sole. Plastic zipper at the heel.
Condition
Fair to Good. There is visible wear/peeling on the inner sole near the arch and toe box. The metallic straps appear mostly intact but show some creasing. The footbed has visible staining and the brand label is slightly lifting on one shoe.
Demand Level
Moderate. Metallic heels are always in demand for formal events, but the internal condition lowers appeal to high-end buyers.

Selling Guide
Where to Sell
Poshmark, Mercari, or Depop. These platforms have a younger demographic that frequently shops for event wear like Steve Madden at lower price points.
Selling Tips
Deep clean the insole with a damp cloth (carefully) to reduce the appearance of foot marks. Photograph the shoes filled with tissue paper to show the strap structure. Use keywords like 'glam,' 'prom,' 'wedding guest,' 'metallic,' and 'strappy.' Be very transparent about the insole peeling to avoid returns.
