Knee high boots have always been my go to but a like flat preferably rubber soled boots. Any suggestions please ? I don’t think I can pull off the doc martins look

I don't want to be rude, but have you tried googling " flat, knee high boots"

There's 100s of results in all price ranges. Cheaper boots are more likely to have rubber soles.

Bit vague! Grin

Do you want to spend £50 or £500 or any specific amount in between?

And are you likely to be wearing them for weekdays at Canary Wharf or weekends in Cornwall?

Fair points made ! My budget is up to about £250 and just need something comfortable more than looking smart
saw Penelope Chilvers boots which look beautiful but very spendy !

Look at Ecco and Clark's for comfort .

This is style and beauty so I don’t know why PP are being so snippy suggesting Google.

OP I am watching the thread for suggestions, I have no idea what is fashionable these days.

For what is fashionable these days you need the Vogue Runway app, @SquatWeightaMinute. Every catwalk show you could possibly want, right in the palm of your hand.

Because "suggest some flat black knee boots" with no budget and no indication of preferences is as vague as it's possible to be.

I think knee length boots are mostly quite dated now. Ankle boots are super versatile.

Have a look at Lanx. UK-made, leather boots in various styles and colours, including smarter versions of Doc Marten style.

I've got my eye on the Gabor Match long boot at £170 but have just seen Jones the bookmakers have a similar one on their outlet for £99. I think it’s called Juan so I may opt for that instead. In fact Jones seem to have a few in their outlet that might suit?

But didn't I see on another thread that knee high boots were making a seasonable comeback? I could be wrong of course, and that would reduce my current online basket a bit. 😂
