Rick Owens Thigh High Boots

Rick Owens Thigh High Boots run the full length of the leg with two zips one at the top of the thigh, another mid-shaft letting the fit adjust at two points instead of being pulled on and forced to sit right. A rounded metal eyelet sits at the top of each zip, almost like a rivet holding the leg together.

Toe’s the same rounded, bulbous shape as the rest of the line, sitting on that same heavy platform sole keeps the boot grounded even with all that leather running up the leg.

Construction Notes

• Dual zip closures one at thigh height, one mid-calf
• Round metal eyelet detail at each zip terminus
• Extra-tall leather shaft running to the thigh
• Rounded, bulbous toe box
• Chunky platform sole with a low block heel

Fit & Feel
The shaft sits close through the calf and knee, then the two zips let you loosen or tighten around the thigh so it doesn’t bunch or gap. The leather itself is soft enough to move with the leg rather than standing stiff.

Pairing Ideas
These work best with Rick Owens shorts or a mini Rick Owens Dress length underneath so the full leg of the boot is visible. Keep everything else close-fitting bulky layers on top compete with how much leather is already happening down below.

Care

• Wipe down regularly with a dry or slightly damp cloth
• Condition leather every few weeks to prevent cracking
• Keep zip tracks clean and lightly lubricated so they don’t stick
• Avoid folding the shaft when storing hang or use tall boot shapers
• Keep away from prolonged sun or heat exposure
