Especially when it comes down to which type of trousers you’re choosing to wear them with – and how exactly. Should you pick a pair of skinny jeans, or a baggy pair of trousers? And should you tuck the pant legs into your overknee boots, or wear your trousers over them instead? We’d love to help you out in this article by attempting to answer each and every question that you might have regarding this subject.
Make a statement with your overknee boots
Wearing a stylish pair of overknee boots is great for making a statement. Depending on their appearance, it is also possible to wear them in order to opt for a more elegant look. By picking a pair of overknee boots in suede, for example, you will create a more chic and classy look. The same goes for velour and other matte materials. Without a shiny appearance, your boots will attract less attention. The rest of your outfit will stand out more. This is certainly something to consider if you for example want to wear the boots to work, as well as to another formal environment or situation. On the other hand, you could also opt for overknee boots in patent leather. This in particular is a striking choice that at the same time is also quite daring.
Trousers in – or over the overknee boots?
If you want to combine your overknee boots with a pair of trousers, there is really only one good way to do so. You need to tuck them inside of your boots. Why else would you pick a pair of striking overknee boots, if nobody is supposed to see them? In order to do this in a way that is both fashionable and comfortable, you will need to be wearing the right pair of trousers. The best choice would definitely be a pair of skinny jeans. The fabric of the pant legs clings tightly onto your legs, which ensures you will be able to easily glide your boots over them.
Tip: choose boots with the right shaft width. In that case, it will be easier to tuck both your legs and trousers into them. You'll have just a little more room, which will prevent it from perhaps being all too tight.
Wearing overknee boots in winter and during the summer
Are you wearing the overknee boots in winter? They are a nice and warm choice, especially with the pant legs of your jeans comfortably tucked inside. On the other hand, be careful with that when it gets warmer outside. Your legs will soon feel like they are overheating. In this case, it might be best to opt for a pair of shorts or skirt instead.
Overknee boots with trousers
So are you thinking about overknee boots with trousers? It's certainly not an unusual or impossible combination. On the other hand, keep in mind that it requires a little extra attention. You will find that it is important to show off the boots well on one side, while being able to wear the trousers well in them. In any case, skinny trousers are the best choice to combine the two. This applies to jeans as well as other fabrics. In this case, put on the trousers first, with the legs all the way down. Then put on the overknee boots, by pulling them all the way over.
