Zipper leather boots, no matter what time of year, look hot.
Finding the Right Zipper Leather Boots
It is easy enough to find the right shoe size for leather boots, but if you are buying tall leather boots with a zipper, the problem is finding the right boot that fits your ankle and leg well. You want the shaft of the boot to fit your leg perfectly. Too tight and not only will they be uncomfortable, but you may get a little "muffin top" effect on your legs. Too loose, well, that just looks sloppy and can quickly ruin any outfit. Of course, if you aren't the tall leather zipper boot kind of person, there are other styles like:
- Ankle boots - These are also called booties and there are plenty of leather styles of these boots around that feature a zipper.
- Calf height- Think of the height of the shaft of these boots, the same height as a typical pair of UGGS.
- Motorcycle boots - You don't have to own or ride a motorcycle to rock out a pair of this style of boot.
What to Look For in Leather Zipper Boots
There are a few considerations you might want to make when shopping for leather boots with zippers:
- Zipper construction - You want to try to choose boot with a gusseted zipper. A gusset is an extra piece of material around the zipper to make it stronger. Zippers take a lot of beating, especially on boots.
- Stitching - Whether you are shopping online or in a store, always make sure you take a look at the stitching. You want to make sure that it is with quality thread (it should be relatively thick) and that the stitches lock together.
- Heels - The type of heel you decide to get for your leather boots with zippers is really a matter of personal taste. Here are a few tips on what to look for in various types of heel design
- No heel - If you choose no heel boots, make a note of the sole's thickness. You don't want a heel so thin that you feel every stick and stone underneath your feet when you are walking outside.
- Stacked heel - Boot manufacturers make stacked heels out of stacked pieces of wood. Many times, less expensive boots have the look of a stacked heel, but are really plastic. Plastic heels, while cheaper, don't last as long as the real wood heels.
- Stiletto heel - The only thing you want to think about when purchasing stiletto heeled boots is the height of the heel. How high you go is completely up to you.
