Saint Laurent boots are sharp and narrow, on a stiletto heel. Shop Saint Laurent boots at Coveti, with the wider shoe edit and the Saint Laurent hub.

Knee boots

Tall, close-fitting boots on a stiletto, in smooth leather, patent and suede. Wear them with a short skirt.

Ankle boots

Pointed ankle boots and booties on a high heel, some with the Opyum logo heel. These suit straight trousers.

Western boots

Block-heeled boots with elastic sides and a pointed toe.

Which boot for which outfit

A stiletto knee boot with a short skirt, a knit dress and a long coat. A pointed ankle boot with straight tailored trousers. A western-inspired boot with jeans. Each Coveti product page lists the heel height the house gives.

Leathers

Smooth leather for the sharpest line, patent for evening, suede for warmth and texture, and printed calf hair for a statement.

Care

Use boot shapers to keep tall boots upright, waterproof suede before the first wear, and resole early. Store each pair in its dust bag.
