Boots above the knee

One of the favorite models of many women were and remain boots above the knee. They are called upon to give warmth and comfort to their hostess, while emphasizing her unique image. This model is more often used for winter socks, however there are interesting demi-seasonal copies that will suit both the wet autumn weather and the first days of winter.

History of Boots

Many are interested in what are called boots above the knee. In the history of fashion they appear as "boots", but some continue to call them "high boots". Initially, they were created for servicemen of cavalry, and high rigid tops allowed them to stay in the saddle for a long time. Later, representatives of the upper class, noblemen and even Peter I became addicted to the boots. Today women's boots above the knee received a second birth and became the fashionable form of women's shoes.

Varieties of jackboots

Some people confuse boots with boots to the knee without a heel. In fact, according to the rules, the length of the bootleg of such boots must necessarily be above the knee, otherwise it's not boots anymore. Depending on the style, several models of such boots can be distinguished:

  1. Winter boots are above the knee. Must be warmed with lining of fur or wool. For winter it is better to buy boots above the knee without a heel or on a platform. A thin hairpin will be unstable and can bring discomfort while walking through the snow.
  2. Boots with lapels. An interesting model that can transform from high boots into boots to the middle of the knee. This is done thanks to the top of the elastic soft skin, which easily turns into a lapel.
  3. Treads are stockings. This model comes to the middle of the thigh and is made of thin leather or suede. Boots-stockings should be worn with a maximally closed and modest outfit, otherwise the image will be too vulgar.
