These models combine all necessary and important features for knee-high boots. But other reviewed shoes also have high marks. So, the choice depends on your taste and your personal needs.
How to Choose the Great Pair
Before buying the shoes you should pay attention to the following features:
- Look at the boots.
You should carefully examine the footwear. The materials, which the boots are made of, must be solid and smooth. The stitches should look durable without any holes. Remember that quality footwear doesn’t have any traces of glue, scratches and all sorts of stains on its surface. The zipper should slide easily.
Pay attention to the sole of the boots. Nowadays it is made of synthetic material, which is more durable and practical in the most of the cases. Such sole wouldn’t deform and wear off, even if you will use it for a long time. Sometimes sole of expensive shoes is made of leather. The main disadvantage of the leather sole is fragility. - The height of the heel.
High-heeled boots will make your legs look skinnier and longer. However, if you are not used to wearing such shoes, it will be difficult for you to match them with your everyday style. If you still want heeled boots, choose a pair with a stable mid-height heel. Also, consider models with a platform. Such footwear will be perfect for evening event and parties.
But for everyday wearing experts recommend choosing boots on a small wide heel or on a flat sole. If you care about your health, choose boots with heels not more than 1.5 inches (3.81 cm). - Insoles.
The insole should fully conform to the shape of the feet, providing all-day comfort and support. The additional cushioning will be a great advantage. - Materials.
Give preference to shoes that are made of natural materials like suede, nubuck, leather or textiles. Leatherette boots are also a good choice, but they can be less breathable. Also, materials should be water-resistant. - Design.
It is preferable to choose models with a round toe, as models with a pointed toe can squeeze fingers and bring discomfort and pain.

I bought Steve Madden Arries Boots last spring. The fit and design are good. But I can’t say the same about the materials because they are not the best quality. The upper is crinkled and in general the shape is not stable. I am not happy with in the quality.
Timberland are well-made, durable, and super stylish. Love their amazing classic look. Good combinations with every clothes. I prefer to wear them with skinny jeans and oversize sweaters or shirts. High-quality, good leather is very durable. Fit perfect. Love their massive design!!!
I bought FRYE Malorie boots for my wife and they became her favorite. I think she loves them more than me))
I bought the Dorado Riding Boot a few years ago and I wear them very often! The material quality is great but the sole is slippy and they a little bit narrow. Not bad but not excellent.
