Knee-High Boots for Winter in NYC | Tracy's New York Life

Is there anything that makes an outfit so effortlessly fierce as a pair of knee-high boots? With cold weather on the horizon, it’s time to stock up on some of the season’s trustiest and most fashionable boots for winter in NYC.

Of course, that means a collection of knee-high boots to wear over those tights, leggings, and jeans. Tall boots, as opposed to ankle styles, don’t only make legs look long and lean – they keep you extra warm while walking through the city in sub-zero temps. Keep a pair (or two, or three) of these sleek knee-high boots in your closet, and you’ll be cozy and stylish until spring makes its way around again.

Knee-High Suede Wedge Boots

For a bit of lift, try a pair of these wedge boots during winter’s drier days (suede and snow don’t mix well). And how cute are those poms on the side?
