- How high is the heel?
- The heel is 3.3 inches, a slim stiletto. That is dressy but noticeably higher and narrower than the block heels common on knee-high boots.
- Are these boots easy to get on?
- Yes. A full-length zipper runs up the shaft, so you open the boot and step in rather than pulling it on. That helps with a tall, slouchy shaft.
- What are the boots made of?
- The upper is leather, the lining is textile and the outsole is synthetic. The leather gives the slouch its shape; the synthetic sole keeps the boot lighter but with less grip.
- Do they fit true to size?
- They are listed in US sizing. With a zipper and a textile lining, fit depends on your calf as much as your foot, so check the shaft circumference against your calf measurement.
- Can I wear them in rain or snow?
- Not ideal. The leather upper and synthetic sole are not described as waterproof, and a stiletto heel is unstable on ice or slick pavement.
- What outfits do slouch knee-high boots suit?
- They work best with midi skirts, dresses, leggings and skinny jeans. The slouch looks intentional with softer fabrics and reads less formal than a structured riding boot.
