Boots for thin legs.

A long-promised post to the moderators) (there was no connection)
All calculations and advice are generalized experiences, mine and hundreds of other skinny women whose legs have passed through my hands)
With the arrival of the season, the question of finding the perfect pair of boots is very relevant, we run to the stores, in anticipation, and get such disappointment

The most common mistake made by inch-inches is trying to find boots that are tight to the shins. And very often they succeed!
In the end, while searching for their match, they come across stocking boots, the top of which stretches and fits tightly even on a thin leg. There is a special technology for producing such boots: suede or leather (usually suede) is glued to a stretch lining, thanks to which it also gains the ability to stretch. I consider this a fatal mistake, because the top peels off from the lining very quickly and it looks terrible! These boots are made for “curvy” legs with pronounced calves, only then do they look harmonious. And the inches have thin legs with a giant flipper foot (even if it is size 36), that is, visually these shoes look exactly like in all the photos below








I foresee the reaction: “ugh! Yes, you just found some ugly cheap boots, but if you buy good expensive ones it will be different!” I hasten to disappoint you, almost all the photos are from the Tsuma website, the boots in the photos above cost from 45 thousand and something is approaching 60-70.

Also, the length of boots up to the middle of the calf is contraindicated for inches, this generally suits few people, it shortens the legs greatly, well, unless, of course, you are Gisele Bundchen) and even above the ankle by 10 centimeters and below the knee by the same 10 cm, in general, a lot of things it doesn’t fit, I think that this is not news for little inches, they know everything themselves, they tried it on, they saw it)) it looks like a pencil in a glass (words not mine)
below are examples

Well, let's finish with what is impossible, let's start looking at what is possible and what will be optimal

We need boots with tube tops; such a top should a priori be loose and not tight on the leg!
Here are two pictures for comparison, at first glance the boots are almost identical:

Only those on the left we don’t need, because they should sit strictly on the leg.
how to understand this? - Just! they have a pronounced bend in the ankle area and no less pronounced in the calf area (and we just don’t have them, in the sense of pronounced calves)) The boots on the left should fit exactly on the leg, if the leg dangles in them, then this is It won't be comme il faut.
But the boots on the right are ours!
They have a uniform width boot from the ankle to the very top, they should not be tight! a foot dangling in them is normal, that’s what the designer intended!

Another plus of such boots, and indeed a desirable quality of any boots for thin legs, is the absence of a zipper on the inside. They put on shoes like felt boots. Lightning is permissible for boots that fit tightly on the leg, because it tends to pull the boot outward, that is, to crook the legs, as it were. Also, the zipper makes it impossible to have such an option in boots as folding the bootleg in the ankle area (for this, the skin of the bootleg must be soft, and as a result, expensive) by folding the bootleg in this way we will get the length that I didn’t recommend a little higher (up to the middle of the calf ), however, there is one way in which even skinny people can afford such boots - these are leggings!
They divert attention from the fact that the boot is much wider than the legs.

Here is another clear example of almost identical boots, on the left for women with pronounced calves (this model requires, frankly, powerful calves), for which this model should be tight, on the right for those with thin legs, who will look very good in this model!

Another requirement for boots for inches is that the top of the boots must be high! to the kneecap, if the cockroaches allow, then over the knee boots (they also come in different varieties! You won’t necessarily look like a girl from a prostitute or a puss in boots! The right clothes will make the image interesting). Why are these heights? because the knees of skinny women are usually wider than their calves, and the boot in these places will not wear out so much, plus over time it will wrinkle or, more correctly, form folds at the back under the knee, which will also remove the width from them.
In the photos above, both the beige and black boots (both left ones) are just the right length!
Here are some examples


I like the shaft of these beige boots but don’t like the toe, it’s somehow defective...



the famous boots from Givenchy here, the wider the better!)

Also a very wide boot! I’m sure that a girl can also “put two legs into it” (the most common complaint of Thumbelinas) By the way, a good example of what to do for those who are embarrassed about their thin legs, but want to wear boots and dress skirts - a hem that goes slightly beyond The edge of the boot is, IMHO, quite sexy! this is Hermes if anything)
Below is another example from YSL



By the way, this is also an excellent example of using leg warmers to distract attention from the fact that the boot is wide (and it is very wide for a girl)

So, we found out that we need boots with a tube top, knee-high or higher, with soft leather so that folds and creases look natural.
However, not all pipes are created equal!
here is a photo for comparison

both on the left and on the right the bootlegs are pipes, but on the left the bootleg expands from bottom to top, and we don’t need this at all! and on the right it is uniform along the entire length, but it also seems to me that it tapers slightly at the very top! Pay attention to this fact when you look for your boots!

Below I will post a few photos of those models that, in my opinion, will fit well.

1 wonderful pipes, combined brushed leather and suede. Soft suede on the boot will create beautiful, soft, voluminous folds, and the leather upper will give them a clear shape at the top. in my opinion they are wonderful! amazing game of textures! stable heel and very narrow boot.

2 these are also excellent boots! not for a second, not for a prostitute, not for cats! Such a boot should also not be tight to the shin.

3. Beautiful last, very proportional. In general, in my opinion, it’s an extremely elegant model, plus the beige color in contrast to the black color that everyone is so tired of. Soft leather, narrow boot, uniform along the entire length, stable heel.

4 High-heeled boots. not a hint of vulgarity either! the only thing is that they will look good only on tall girls (this is my gut feeling)

5 These boots go up to the middle of the knee (at least that’s how they’re designed, everything else depends on height) Also a narrow boot, soft leather, comfortable and very nice last. (judging by the photo, excellent quality leather!!!)

6 is another good example for those who are always on the run) also excellent, soft leather and a good last

7 This model is very controversial, I posted it more for myself (I’m such a badass!))) Fans of unusual, retro models will like it. very good for thin legs, but demanding on the height of the owner. By the way, these are not stockings, just boots with a narrow top.

Well, I’ll touch on the topic of jockey boots. they are also possible and even necessary! They are often made for thin legs; for those with pronounced calves, it is very difficult to choose such a model. It's no big deal if the boot is a little off at the top! and it’s even more normal for the boot to wrinkle at the ankle and slightly sag down because of this. On the two models lower in the ankle area, the boot is wide, it should not be tight! and it should form folds!
I really liked this model, but it has a slightly wider boot at the top (well, very cool reading boots!!!) (I found them on the Tsuma website, they are no longer there, they are sold out(((
