astrid Posted July 30, 2009 Posted July 30, 2009 Very nice indeed. She looks fantastic in them as well. I cant believe some of the thoughts and stigmas she is thinking about. She looks very classy.
Maximilian Posted July 30, 2009 Posted July 30, 2009 Very nice indeed. She looks fantastic in them as well. I cant believe some of the thoughts and stigmas she is thinking about. She looks very classy. I agree. The stigmas associated with thigh boots are crazy. Look what 1 film (Pretty Woman) did to their image. I agree that her outfit is very classy yet I don't really like the boot style though.
roniheels Posted July 31, 2009 Posted July 31, 2009 She looks very nice, comfortable and sexy in those boots. Sounds like she might try some other boots, too.
thighboots Posted July 31, 2009 Posted July 31, 2009 Great news, hopefully we will more thigh boots out and about! I need to buy a new pair as I have worn my old ones out. I'm getting a pair of Italianheels Amanda thigh boots ~ they look great.
Shoeboi Posted July 31, 2009 Posted July 31, 2009 Thighboots have always been in vogue one way or another.
danielp6406 Posted August 1, 2009 Posted August 1, 2009 Very nice: This girl would attract my attention too FYI, see Thightbootguy's post (same subject and with a video link) here > http://www.hhplace.org/guys/1743-thigh_boots_public-174.html#post213798 It's a good thing we will see this trend both here in America and in the UK. Now I can't wait for this fall to see them for real...
Thighbootguy Posted August 1, 2009 Posted August 1, 2009 Not surprisingly, I think they look great! I rather like the single sole style rather then the hidden platform though. I had the same concerns when I started wearing mine as she had when she asked, “Do you think I can get away with them?” and she has a point that, “These are not the boots for wearing if you want to blend into the crowd.” Although I do get my share of snickers and whistles, I have never had anyone shout, “Ow much?”, but then she looks better than I do. The questions I do get about cost are from women asking about the price of my boots. I did go to the www.topshop.com web site and saw the boots displayed on a banner; I was unable to locate them in the site. One can only hope that wearing thigh boots catches on this fall. I dream of a world where chickens can cross roads without having their motives questioned.
Maximilian Posted August 1, 2009 Posted August 1, 2009 I did go to the www.topshop.com web site and saw the boots displayed on a banner; I was unable to locate them in the site. I hate it when they do that, post a pic of awesome boots on the site yet not sell it. Tommy Hilfiger did the same thing with a gorgeous pair of OTK boots he used during his Fall/Winter 2008 fashion show as well as post a pic on his website. I've searched high and low for these boots but couldn't even find the name/cost and if they were even made by TH. I think

I think Greatings Maximilian :-) I agree with you: The Tommy Hilfiger boots are very nice. Did you try to send them a request about the boots ? FYI you can send them an e-mail using this link > http://www.shoptommy.com/tommy/company/emailUs.jsp Good luck finding these boots !
thighboots Posted August 3, 2009 Posted August 3, 2009 If you manage to find those Tommy Hiffiger boots please let me know. They look great!
euchrid Posted August 3, 2009 Author Posted August 3, 2009 New Look have a pair instore now. Black, soft leather-look and a nice shape to them but they're probably 'made in china' plastic. I didn't see the price. Always High-Heel Responsibly
teeza Posted August 3, 2009 Posted August 3, 2009 Thigh boots are an everyday part of my wardrobe. I prefer them as high as possible.
danielp6406 Posted August 3, 2009 Posted August 3, 2009 Thigh boots are an everyday part of my wardrobe. I prefer them as high as possible. Greatings teeza :-) This is nice. I wish more women would do the same here (Maybe we will see more this fall) Do you wear them even if the temperature is warm and humid ? I think this is the type of weather in Indonesia isnt-it ? (Maybe I am wrong...) New Look have a pair instore now. Black, soft leather-look and a nice shape to them but they're probably 'made in china' plastic. I didn't see the price. Greatings euchrid :-) Do you have a link you can post here so we can see them ?
Dawn HH Posted August 9, 2009 Posted August 9, 2009 It does look up for thighboots to gain a renewal for Fall. It's a bit early here for them to start to show. It won't be long now until they do. Cheers--- Dawn HH High Heeled Boots Forever!
JeffB Posted August 10, 2009 Posted August 10, 2009 Pretty cool article. Speaking of which, I'll wait until September or October when it IS cool before I break my thigh boots out of storage. With temps flirting with 100 here today, to wear such boots would be borderline suicide! Yoiks! I don't want to LOOK like a woman, I just want to DRESS like a woman!
euchrid Posted August 10, 2009 Author Posted August 10, 2009 Greatings euchrid :-) Do you have a link you can post here so we can see them ? I'm pretty sure these are the ones. They are incorrectly described as kneeboots on their website. http://www.newlook.co.uk/1728553/172855301/ProductDetails.aspx Always High-Heel Responsibly

With temps flirting with 100 here today, to wear such boots would be borderline suicide! Yoiks! Greatings JeffB :-) Did know you were a fan of thighboots ! Can't wait to see your jaunts this fall ! I'm pretty sure these are the ones. They are incorrectly described as kneeboots on their website. http://www.newlook.co.uk/1728553/172855301/ProductDetails.aspx Greatings euchrid :-) Those are very nice boots and tks for the link. Do you wear them over pants ? (It would be a shame to hide such nice boots) But I guess it requires a lot of "courage" to wear them like this over pants in public...) I admit I don't have the courage to do it yet but this fall I will really try to wear my boots over pants.
Maximilian Posted August 20, 2009 Posted August 20, 2009 Over the knee boots are going to be everywhere this Fall/Winter. All the top designers have at least 1 pair of OTK/Thigh boots. Expect to see many celebs in these boots. I can only envy members who live in the fashion capitals of the world. I'm sure boots like these would be everywhere in Manhattan, London, Paris, Milan, Rome, Berlin etc... Here are but a few examples of boots I really like. Most are otk/thigh boots, some knee high: Dolce Vita - http://www.martinandosa.com/web/browse/product.jsp?catId=cat500037&productId=2230_9946&WT.mc_id=k108283&WT.mc_ev=click&CustomerMemberID=92899714 Dolce Vita - http://www.shopbop.com/eve-above-knee-boots-dolce/vp/v=1/845524441849589.htm?folderID=2534374302024643&extid=affprg Joie - http://www.shopbop.com/coachella-above-knee-boots-joie/vp/v=1/845524441848449.htm?folderID=2534374302024643&extid=affprg Joie - http://www.jildorshoes.com/product.cfm?PI=65313&AID=10655979&PID=2178999 Joie - http://www.shopbop.com/twiggy-over-knee-boots-joie/vp/v=1/845524441848435.htm?folderID=2534374302024643&extid=affprg Sergio Rossi - http://www.shopbop.com/chelsea-over-knee-boots-sergio/vp/v=1/845524441846627.htm?folderID=2534374302024643&extid=affprg Ash - http://www1.bloomingdales.com/catalog/product/index.ognc?ID=437333&CategoryID=11390&PageID=11390*4*24*-1*-1*-1*80#mainProductImage Pour La Victoire -http://www.endless.com/dp/B001U89DEA/ref=asc_df_B001U89DEA884908?tag=endlesscj-20&creative=380333&linkCode=asn&creativeASIN=B001U89DEA Matisse - http://www.lordandtaylor.com/eng/Shoes-ViewAllShoes-_Maya__Leather_Knee_High_Boots-lordandtaylor/60323/?utm_source=GAN&utm_medium=Affiliates&utm_campaign=ShopStyle.com&utm_content=&utm_term=na&cm_mmc=Affiliate-_-GAN-_-ShopStyle.com-_-Primary&tag=GAN&CustomerMemberID=92900644 Balenciaga - http://www.barneys.com/Over-the-Knee%20Boot/500187782,default,pd.html?utm_source=shopstyle&utm_medium=cse&utm_campaign=shopstyle08&source=shopstyle Chloe - http://www.barneys.com/Buckle%20Knee%20Boot/500152371,default,pd.html Chloe - http://www.barneys.com/Lace%20Up%20Over-the-Knee%20Boot/151415261,default,pd.html?utm_source=shopstyle&utm_medium=cse&utm_campaign=shopstyle08&source=shopstyle Chloe - http://www.mytheresa.com/shop/product.php?dsefu=off&productid=7596¤cy_code=USD&koop_id=QA1200001 Stella McCartney - http://www.barneys.com/Pull%20On%20Knee%20Boot/500142623,default,pd.html?utm_source=shopstyle&utm_medium=cse&utm_campaign=shopstyle08&source=shopstyle http://www.shirise.com/shirise/product.asp?prod_name=Stella+McCartney+%22222432%22+Black+Knee+High+Boots&pf_id=PAAAAAJAJAGOHLHG&dept_id=3141&s_id=0&&ad_id=shopstyle Jimmy Choo - http://www.net-a-porter.com/am/product/48691?cm_mmc=LinkshareUS-_-ProductFeed-_-Jimmy+Choo-_-Boots&siteID=J84DHJLQkR4-IlXTKVgG4cjpoFjOAMm8KQ Jimmy Choo - http://www.mytheresa.com/shop/product.php?dsefu=off&productid=7811¤cy_code=USD&koop_id=QA1200001# Cynthia Vincent - http://www.dianiboutique.com/Reva-Over-the-Knee-Boot_MPD1463:cPath-75.html?source=shopstyle Christian Louboutin -http://www.saksfifthavenue.com/main/ProductDetail.jsp?PRODUCT<>prd_id=845524446232624&site_refer=AFF001&site_refer=AFF001&siteID=J84DHJLQkR4-5EkwCfH6Ts6abiOg2tRTKQ Nine West - http://www.ninewest.com/Husky/4033079,default,pd.html?cgid=3227282&itemNum=27&nw_src_cd=FRESHPAF&ep_tag=AF200905NW I can't wait for the fall season!
danielp6406 Posted August 20, 2009 Posted August 20, 2009 Greating Maximilian :-) Very nice boots you got there on these links. (but some are very expensive...) I saw a dream pair of OTK boots at Aldo. See this link http://www.aldoshoes.com/ca-eng/women/boots/tall-boots/75467924-cassetty/97 My brain went completely "nuts" when I saw the long side zipper. I don't know If I will resist from buying them... And I am sure they would look great over skinny jeans
thighboots Posted August 20, 2009 Posted August 20, 2009 Please let me know if you get those OTK boots from Aldo, I have my eye on them to! Not sure if I can resist them!
danielp6406 Posted August 20, 2009 Posted August 20, 2009 Please let me know if you get those OTK boots from Aldo, I have my eye on them to! Not sure if I can resist them! Greetings thighboots :-) I agree with you. They are very hard to resist ... I called my Aldo store today to check if they have them in my size (US 11) (I was sure they would say no and they would have to order them) FYI, my new purchasing policy is if they don't have stock, I don't order them. (I soon found out that this is the best way to save money on buying shoes or boots ) But to my surprise they do have them in my size ! So I will go to the store tomorrow night and try them on to see how they fit. (I can't wait to see them for real to find out if they look as good as on the picture) If they fit OK and look really nice, then I will purchase them. (My intend now is to keep then on leaving the store. Hoping I won't change my mind until then ) I will let you know as soon as I am back home...
miltboot Posted August 21, 2009 Posted August 21, 2009 I envy those of you who have "reasonable" shoe sizes. A lot of the "boutique" boots are off limits to those of us with a larger footprint.
thighboots Posted August 21, 2009 Posted August 21, 2009 Danielp6406 - Great minds think alike I phoned my local Aldo today and had a similar discussion. I was not so lucky and am going to have to wait while they order me a size 9 (42) in! I checked the full lenght zip wad not just decorative - it's not which is good. Can't wait to get them. Let me know what they are like!
danielp6406 Posted August 21, 2009 Posted August 21, 2009 thighboots :-) I got them They are simply AMAZING and more BEAUTIFUL in real when you wear them The side zipper is real indeed and is located outside ! (We normally see such a zipper on the inside of boots) Funny thing is that it was the first time the salesgirl saw them for real on someone (And it was a man ) I will post a picture of me wearing them as soon as I can. Now I can't wait for fall to come... (Still too warm here to wear them)
thighboots Posted August 22, 2009 Posted August 22, 2009 Danielp6406 - to say I'm jealous is an understatement! I can't wait to get mine, it will be great to have a pair of high boots I can wear out and about without worrying! Are they proper over the knee boots? Would be great to see some pictures of you wearing them. I'm going to chase my order up!
jamie1608 Posted August 22, 2009 Posted August 22, 2009 i have placed my order for a pair of thigh boots with topshop! i hope they arrive for me to pick up next saturday
