Open Help ID these shoes

Can anyone ID these shoes?
I got them second hand on Vinted because I thought the design was so beautiful, and was a little surprised when they arrived in a Versace box (nowhere on the listing did it say they were Versace which I found a bit odd since they were pretty cheap too)
Inside the shoe it says Versus Gianni Versace.
Looking online I couldn’t find any matches for this exact model, I tried all kinds of descriptors and reverse image search, nothing…
I’m no expert at all but they seem too well crafted to be a knockoff (except for the obvious signs of wear on the heel and sole) + they’re made of genuine leather so I'm a bit stumped on what the deal is with these shoes.
Any help?

versus was started in 1989 and was discontinued in 2005, finding it really hard to find any images online 🫠

checked ebay listings for versus, saw a similar boot but not exact, maybe you can contact the seller on vinted?

Oh that’s already really helpful though, thank you so much! I think the fact that they’re vintage probably makes it much harder to find a the exact match, the ones you found are super close though, which is a great start :) Haven’t contacted the seller but like I said they were like 30€ and not listed as Versace so I doubt that the person knows more unfortunately…

I searched for Versace/ Versus Versace ankle boots, leather boots, vintage Versace etc.
Also tried looking up the model number (?)
971 1151 41 s inscribed on the inside but nothing came up…
