The boots and booties, is a type of footwear that adapts well to any time of the year, however, they are more used in cold weather, especially in winter. This year, leather boots and ankle boots are more fashionable than ever, and with the arrival of the winter, many of us think about acquiring a new pair of boots for our collection.
Although anyone can wear any type of boot, depending on various factors, there will be models that fit our legs and feet better and that better satisfy our needs.
Beyond the aesthetic taste, which is something very subjective and personally, our own morphology will make some models adapt better to our body than others.
Below, we review the main factors to take into account when choosing one model or another:
The height It is one of the most well-known factors and one that almost everyone takes into account when choosing their boots or ankle boots. A tall woman does not need heels higher than 10 cm, a short woman can opt for models with a higher heel to enhance her figure and increase her height. In any case, the choice of heel for each model should be aimed at stylizing the figure.
The perimeter of our calf, is another important factor to take into account. Women with wider calves, you can choose boot-type models or lower boots, which allow for greater uniformity in the outfit, if you still want to use a high or mid-calf boot, it is important to choose the materials well, the models made in nubuck and other types of flexible leather can be a good option to avoid compressing our calves inside the boot and making us uncomfortable, especially when we plan to use our boots for a long period of time, or we are going to walk a lot. If we have very wide ankles, especially the lower part, it is advisable to order the manufacture of a custom model, such as those we manufacture at Jose de Mora and 5VWith a few measurements and choosing one of the styles already available in other models, we can get a boot that fits like a glove to our anatomy, without giving up a reasonable price and the quality of our footwear. If we do not have or do not want to spend extra, we can also look for a model that is already wide and risk trying a larger size.
For those women of thinner calvesYou can opt for tube-type boots such as over-the-knee boots or high, straight-cut boots that adapt very well to this type of legs. In addition, if we want to conceal the thinness of our legs, with these models our calf is completely covered.
Finally, it is important to take into account the foot width. Wide feet can be a problem when it comes to preserving the comfort of our boots and ankle boots, since generally, if they are not made to measure, they will tend to be proportional between the length and width of a standard foot, leaving those people with feet wider than average, forced to carefully choose the boot model, so as not to give up comfort without having to wear shoes that are larger than our size, which will lead to them being wide enough for us, but too long, leaving a certain amount of room in the heel, something that can lead to ankle sprains.
Ideally, choose boots and ankle boots with a wide, rounded toe; a pointed toe is not for this type of foot. It is also important to use flexible materials that do not squeeze too much; satin leather and rubber are not recommended options due to their hardness, whereas suede and other types of softer leather can be a good option.
Ultimately, although aesthetics are important, we must not forget the main function of any footwear, which is none other than to allow us to walk comfortably. That is why it is important to follow these brief tips to be able to be fashionable without giving up even a little bit of comfort.
