Knee High Boot

High heels, whether they're thick or thin, can cause problems in women's knees, their ankles and their feet. Shoe-related problems I see very frequently include ankle sprains and breaks from rolling over on high-heeled shoes. These are immediate problems, unlike osteoarthritis in the knee, which may develop after decades of wearing high heels.

Walking on high heels puts abnormal stress on both the front and the back of the knee as The Lancet study demonstrates. In the case of the shoes they tested, pressure on the knee was increased by 22 to 26 percent. The health of the cartilage that forms the padding between the bones in the knee is dependent on the fluid in the knee. It absorbs the nutrients it needs from this liquid to repair itself, but stress on the knee restricts the absorption of the fluid, and the cartilage begins to dry out and shred. Over time, it wears out and arthritis sets in. There are also genetic components of arthritis and there may be nutritional aspects as well, but we know high heels don't help.

Tips for Wearing womens knee high boots

Black knee high boots with a bit of a heel can go effortlessly from the office to dinner, and knee high flats work well with casual or preppy skirts. Remember if you're going to tuck jeans into your boots, you'll want jeans with skinny legs to avoid the "ballooning" effect.

Knee-high boots have existed in the fashion world since at least the 1950s. Fashion knee-high boots come in all materials, leather and rubber seem to be by far the most popular choice, and black is a frequent color. Many have a zipper closure. Furthermore, most varieties of knee-high boots have a substantial heel built into them, anywhere from 3 inches and up.
