Ten years ago, knee-high boots were so popular you just called them “boots.” They were everywhere, and I hated that, perhaps because I’d developed an impossible-to-explain insecurity about my perfectly-fine calves, and therefore didn’t participate, or maybe because I had an aversion toward their preppy/equestrian aesthetic. Either way, when ankle boots, which I deemed more “city,” finally entered my purview, I was relieved. And when they appeared to replace 90% of tall boots around me within a few years, I was gratified. Unfortunately, that last 10% persisted a decade on, and my bitterness deepened (a resentment I blamed solely on the boots, not the women who wore them; I loved the women!). But when I started getting sick of my ankle boots some time in 2016, I was shaking in them, so to speak. What could be next? I set my sights on lace-up boots and high top sneakers — anything to ignore the whispers of renewed affection for knee-high boots I heard from the lips of my beloved colleagues (not to mention the runways).
