Women's Tall Boots

Sit with your knee bent at about 90 degrees and your leg relaxed, then run a soft tape around the fullest part of your calf — roughly a third of the way down from the knee, though the exact spot shifts with leg length, so find it by feel rather than by a fixed height. Measure both legs and work from the larger number. Compare it to the boot's shaft circumference and look for about half an inch to an inch of ease, which leaves room for a sock without the shaft gaping. Keep the muscle relaxed rather than flexed or raised on tiptoe, since a contracted calf measures wider than the one the shaft actually has to sit around.

Knee-high boots stop just below the kneecap, so the shaft ends where the leg still bends freely and the boot mostly stays put on its own. Over-the-knee styles continue past the joint onto the lower thigh, typically two to six inches higher, and usually need elastic panels, a back-of-leg zip or a tie to hold. The higher shaft also shortens the visible leg above it, which is why over-the-knee pairs sit best with shorter hems or slim trousers tucked in.
