Will these boots slouch?

I'm considering these boots - (I've already purchased them) the leather is lovely and soft, but it's thinner. I love them as they are now and they hold their shape, bur I'm worried they will start to soften and slouch / bunch with wear. I'm only 5'4, so a slouchy boot makes me look shorter and I really don't want that.

Does anyone have experience with either these exact boots or some similar? Will they start to slouch / bunch?

I don't think so, the leather would have to be very, very soft. Could you message customer services and ask?

Yes! From item description on website:

We reimagine classic wardrobe staples this season, case in point, these Selby boots which have a traditional Western silhouette. The knee-high style is made from supple leather which creates a slouchy shape. Wear yours with jeans, dresses, and skirts alike.

Op I absolutely love these boots - so much so that I've just ordered a pair! Thanks for the (unintentional) heads up.

Well the description actually states they create a slouchy shape, so I guess yes.

Damn. I totally missed this. Ugh what do I do. They're buttery soft and I love them, but I am trying to find the perfect pair. I just don't want them to slouch 😖

I think they will inevitably bunch up over time if there’s no structure inside. You can see it starting to happen even on the model.

Oh no, I've only gone and ordered them. They are gorge and amazing discount!

Love these Hush boots, I bought a similar western style suede pair from Simply Be, they slouch so end up shorter but still high enough to be flattering - they're also not very wide, even though it states wide fit

Oh but they’re gorgeous and on sale! They will slouch though. Really should have learned about clicking on Hush threads after the leather culottes threads.
