subject: Knee High Boots - A Buyers Guide [print this page] Behold the wonder of knee high boots! No other item is so versatile and offers so many opportunities to be dressed up or dressed down as knee high boots. They can be worn with casual wear including jeans for a fun daytime look; they work with pants or a shirt for a night out, can be pared with business attire for the office, and can even be worn with a formal dress for a special occasion. The most important part of the boots is making sure that the ones you choose are the right boots for you.
The first thing to look for is the right style of boot. Knee high boots come in many styles, including all sizes of heels, from high and medium, to completely flat. It is important to find the right size heel personally, as it must be both comfortable and practical. A heel that is too high is dangerous and impractical, while a flat may not be dressy or versatile enough. Finding the right style can also include if the boot has straps, a zipper, or is plain.
Secondly, one must select what material the boots should be. Leather is a popular option, as it wears very well, and can last for a long time. Fake leather is also an option for those that don't want to spend the money on real leather, and also want a boot that will be water proof. Cloth boots can be more comfortable but are also more likely to wear out quickly, get ripped, and are harder to clean.
The third and final consideration is the most important, and that is finding the right size boot. Unless the boot is the correct size, it will be uncomfortable and useless, even if it is a nice looking boot. To select the correct size one should have the sales associate at the store measure their foot, to be sure they are accurate in what size they think there are. Often shoes size can change over the years. Once a person knows their size they should select that style boot, still making sure there is a little room for comfort in the boot, and so that different types of socks and stockings can be worn that are different thickness levels. It is equally important to make sure that the boot is not too big, or it will be difficult to walk in, risking the person falling.
