Recently got some So Kate 120mm booties. I’m a bit out of practice for heels this height, but I plan to wear them out for dinner for our tenth anniversary in September, so I’m getting lots of practice.

Super nice looking booties! Just curious, what is the actual heel height in your size? Those look somewhat taller than 120 mm to me, and definitely more than I could manage.

Sorry, I tried, but the app I used to use to resize photos now wants a subscription fee.

If you are on a desktop or laptop there are plenty of free resizing apps that work from the right click menu. That's true for Windows and Linux. I can't speak for Mac.

On my old-ish Android phone I can do a certain amount of resizing natively. Don't know if it's good enough for this forum which is quite restrictive on file size because I always post from my desktop or laptop.. Don't know what Iphones can do.

Wow, those are super high! And they look thinner than a pencil.

Yep, gotta have your "heel game on" to handle those beauties properly/confidently.

Amazing boots, perfect heels in my opinion. Hope these get worn often.

So these are So Kate? I never knew there were boots in the So Kate style, these look great.

Have to ask what size you wear to actually fit Louboutin?

[Rockpup]

@ohnoberty Yea, I was surprised to actually find a used pair with 120mm heels.

@Jkrenzer in boots I wear 41. Usually 40 with pumps. I’ve been working on getting used to this heel height, and these boots are more challenging then some other models. I just found some wedges that would be good for practice without putting too much wear on these.

I found these by chance - and to my surprise they are (allegedly) available up to size USW15/UK13/Eu47, assuming that they run true to size:

Link here: Women Thigh High Boots PU Leather Black Sky High Chunky Heel Over The – Prettyunik The heel height is not specified but looks at least 4".   A tempting purchase, especially at the discounted price of £59.99 (with the same boots seen elsewhere at £150 or so), but I will have to pass.  Little of the other footwear from this supplier ('Prettyunik', about whom I know nothing) is available in sizes above USW11 or 12.

Boy o boy, those boots would surely be hard to resist.

Yes the styling us very nice. My only reservation would be about the quality of the material and the workmanship. I know nothing of the maker, but faux leather can vary greatly in quality

I agree with both of you!   What appear to be identical boots are being offered elsewhere (at significantly higher prices - £150+), which suggests a generic (Chinese) product distrubuted to several outlets.   That says nothing about the true quality, although the higher prices do imply that there is some substance to the product.    A very tempting purchase, which could of course be returned, but I would never get much use out of them, and probably none outside.   Still, it would be great to try them on ...
