Hello @all!

this thread is what i was looking for! I am a male from Germany, wearing and loving knee-high boots for a couple of years.
Well its not easy for me to find some fitting boots cause of a tall body in combination with thin legs and calves. But a local shoemaker fits nearly every pair if possible.
Mean time i own eight pair of boots and on the pic below there are my favourites:

Did anyone notice the DAKS collection during Milan Mens fashion week some weeks ago?

Some of the looks are really amazing:

Looks good, but whether they will be seen regularly on the street is another question

If you wear something similar, just watch your mirrored image in the shopping windows.

Very nice boot above. Personally I like knee-high and over-the-knee boots with low heels and zippers. And I'm currently wearing black jeans with black boots. Do you think blue jeans is also a good choice for pairing with boots? If so, what kind of color will you choose for boots that can pair with blue jeans? Still black? Brown? However I still think maybe it is not suitable for me to wear boots in light colors, say, pink or red. What's you guys opinion and advice?

i wear mine with black, blue or grey jeans generally. tend not to wear light coloured jeans wit them, though i do have a pair of light vintage jeans.

I wear my boots (grey, brown, black, burgundy) with jeans (black, blue, gey, red, beige, white), but also with slim fit dress pants, corduroys or knitted pants.

Just have a look at Massimo Dutti, who continues his Equestrian collection in Spring and Summer 2014:

Luuc, I'm with Swedish Chef as far as wearing a variety of pants with my boots. Generally I prefer a slim cut, like Wrangler Cowboy Cut jeans, which come in a variety of colors.

My current favorite boots are a pair of front zip polo boots purchased on Etsy. They are similar to the ones from Massimo Dutti shown here recently, but true vintage.

Glad to finally post to a very interesting thread.

Hi Jinete,

your boots look really amazing. I'm totally in love with this front zipper.

By the way: there is a new page on facebook about men wearing knee high boots as a fashion statement:
