Lacing runs the full shaft, toe to top, and gives this over-the-knee boot one unbroken line up the leg. Dark antique eyelets, tonal laces and a seamed cuff panel hold the shaft straight above the knee, while a flat lugged rubber sole keeps the whole height walkable. The matte suede-look nap holds color without shine, so the deeper shades still sit quietly against tights and plain knitwear.
