Over the knee boots are a fashion staple. They make a bold, powerful look that is rock, rock, rock! There are many ways to wear over the knee boots. You can wear them with leather or nylon soles to increase your versatility. They are also available with foam or canvas soles to increase your flexibility.
The biggest different between these shoes and training shoes is the shape. Training shoes have a more circular heel and foot form that accentuates the movement of the foot as it passes through the shoe. Over the knee boots have an upper that is longer and sits higher on the feet. This shape emphasizes how long the legs will be when you’re sitting on them!
There are many ways to buy these kinds of shoes.

Smooth design
When looking for over-the-knee boots, most people focus on hard, bumpy shoes. However, there are many designers who create smooth looking over-the-knee boots. These shoes are usually seen on women because of the smooth look.
Many people gain inspiration for how to make your own Over-the-Knee Boot design by watching YouTube videos or taking a quick lessons from the designer. He or she provides some tips in the videos!
If you want to add some flair to your boot style, go for it! You can make them in all sorts of colors and fabrics too. Some people even use these as a way to customise undershirts because they are so comfortable.
The texture of the boot is what determines whether or not you need a heel or not.
Comfortable fit
If you are looking for a soft, comfortable over-knee boot that will last you for several seasons, look no further. Over the knee boots are a reliable way to keep warm and stylish on winter days!
Over the knee boots have some distance to travel before they shold up new air to keep you warm. This means that some brands do not have a zero drop, making them more expensive. However, this is not those shoes- they are still a great winter fashion item!
The height of the boot can effect the fit of the shoe. If you are very tall or have long legs, look for an upper height less than your knee cap because this will be less of akward when walking.
Mid-calf height
This height is ideal if you are looking for a short over-the-knee boot. Mid-calf height is about right for most people.
Over the knee boots can make your legs look longer or shorter depending on the height of the boot. This is due to the long top of the leg being visible.
If you have a short length in your shoe, this may not be a problem with this boot. It is built with a long length in mind so that it does not look short.
The height also works if you have a slightly lower frame than average to get the best fit out of this boot.
Great with jeans
These are a little more fashion forward than the flat soled soft–soled hiking boots, so be aware of that. They are also easier to get on and off with each step, making them more fashionista friendly.
They are also harder to size, meaning they can be sized for any foot type. This is helpful if you are looking for a comfortable fit. Many people who hire employees or someone like this own these because they can’t find a good fit with regular shoes.
The price is right as well, coming in at under $50 for a pair. This is done by having one-inch heels built into the boot shafts. This prevents having to buy two different kinds of shoes with very different heights in the footbeds and support systems. These do not have enough support for heavy users, which is why they are so cheap.
Ideal for winter
There is a very good reason why this style of over-knee boot is ideal for winter. The heavily padded, heavy weight upper makes these boots virtually winterized and insulated.
This style of boot has four large rubberized panels that cover the ankle and floor. These provide enough cushion to make these boots comfortable all day, and winter through Christmas.
The top of the boot is lined with heavy foam to prevent heat loss. The rest of the shoe is made from smooth rubber to retain snow proofing. This style also includes a sturdy built-in footbed to help you feel more comfortable in your shoes for extended periods of time.
Given how well these do that, we recommend them highly! They are very expensive, but if you need them you will be ready with these shoes.
Cost effective
Over the knee boots are a staple in many wardrobe options. They make a nice backup item to trousers or slacks when you are on-the-go. You can also use them as fashion sneakers if you do not have a normal pair of shoes!
You can find many cost effective over the knee boots on Amazon. Some people might find them harder to get on and off, but this is not a problem if you need a second one as soon as you get the first one!
These shoes can be used for fashion or functional purposes. They are perfect for working out in, or just looking good at work. They are also great for casual wear since they are not done up too tightly.
Easy to clean
Most rubber over-knee boots can be wet-and-sweaty for a few minutes by just getting them dirty. However, these boots will eventually need to be cleaned and re-patched because of the rubber.
Because of the texture, these boots can easily get stuck in hairnets or removed with scissors. This requires wearing them with a new pair of socks to replace the lost ones.
To take care of the boot, you must remove the wooden heel and toe alone. Then, you can go ahead and wash and dry it on its own. You can even use some hairspray to keep it secure if you are careful about removing it.
Versatile look
When looking for over the knee boots, there are a couple of things that determine what you can do with them. You can create a soft sock-free look, or choose one with a functional sock. Both of these options are easy!
There are also looks where the boot is wrapped in material. This is the most popular look for leather boots, where they are dressed up or more casual. In this case, they are used as footwear instead of being confined to just a shoe!
Both of these looks can be very easy to pre-create. Once you get the hang of it, you will be creating them on the fly! See pre-created looks below, and try one out today.
Another way to get more versatility in looks is to find some soft cloths that match the color scheme of your boot.
