VIXEN "Rev It Up" - live 2016 in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada

If you remember Vixen, you know why this is here.  If you're too young to remember this might look like your mom's older sister dressed up in heavy metal gear, but I think they're holding up pretty well. Sadly, guitarist Jan K (my favorite in the band) passed a few years back, but the singer has picked up the over-the-knee torch. Here's some more, there are a bunch out there-

NOPE!

Stumbled across this still from this week's The Walking Dead.......Nope, leather knee patches on her pants, paired with pretty standard combat ankle boots. But for a second there.....

Just until an HD version shows up

Wow, I had kind of lost track of this clip I made way back in 2008. Twin Daggers (2006) is a pretty horrible chop-socky action flick saved by the brief appearance of a leather-clad ass-kicker.  I've got a line on an HD version of this, but just in case here's a DVD rip.  After a seductive dance, she reveals she has a stiletto blade in the toe of her black leather knee-scrapers. 

A Hunting Girl from my past

http://www59.zippyshare.com/v/JFdsLyTs/file.html
When I was but a young boy, there was TV show that would present "foreign" children's movies dubbed into English. About 40 years ago they aired a movie about a princess who dressed briefly as a hunting girl and featured a close-up of her boots descending a ladder.  That image stuck with me, but I never dreamed I would ever see it again. Imagine my surprise when I stumbled across it quite by accident. Her boots are nowhere near as nice as I remembered, but her buckled and gloved leather outfit is quite nice. Here is Tři oříšky pro Popelku (Three Nuts for Cinderella) from 1973. 

Twiggy, 70's Stylin'

http://www59.zippyshare.com/v/HZKTh7B5/file.html
Poor camera work (and music) in this 1978 Top of the Pops performance by 60's icon Twiggy mars our enjoyment of her classic 70's OTK's.

Found a possibly different youtube version here-

Megan Fox in a poor edit

http://www59.zippyshare.com/v/Snx5lEom/file.html
Megan Fox guested on her then husband BAG's (HAH! I just noticed the initials for Brian Austin Green) dreadful sitcom, Wedding Band. This is s01e02. I don't know what I was thinking when I made this clip. It goes on for WAAAAYYY to long without any boots in the frame.  Extra credit for the first scene featuring my sweetheart Melora Hardin.

Megan Fox Transforms!

http://www59.zippyshare.com/v/Bnmnaj57/file.html
Megan Fox spent the majority of Transformers 2 (2009) in action girl mode, running and jumping in white pants tucked into boots a few inches too low to merit serious attention. Nice Daisy Duke's in the first scene though.

Totally Divas

http://www59.zippyshare.com/v/9NrbgL4a/file.html
There are loads of boots in Total Divas (this is s02e01) but I fear that watching just enough to trim down the episodes may lead to drain bramage. ....See I told you so.

The Party, Briefly

http://www59.zippyshare.com/v/AwHp236J/file.html
From  The Party (1980). Sadly, we don't get a good look at her tan boots as she's trashing the perfumery, but those cream colored boots over her pants are a classic.

60's Style Black and White

http://www59.zippyshare.com/v/zQS2lPkW/file.html
From The Minx (1969), we see a pair of each of black and white thighboots disappearing under mini-skirts. That's a hell of a look Doc. Too bad about the image quality, but its a wonder these sorts of movies survive at all.

More From The Listener

http://www59.zippyshare.com/v/4ScZqA23/file.html
In The Listener s02e13, Lauren continues to channel future boot styles (see one post down) while a guest star wears a pair of riders more typical of 2011.

Listen, She's ahead of the curve

http://www59.zippyshare.com/v/IhkUKAH4/file.html
In these scenes from The Listener s02e12 from 2011, we see how ahead of the curve Lauren Lee Smith was. Suede thighboots wouldn't become common for another 5 years. I don't believe they've ever been common on police detectives. More boots from The Listener here.

Lucifer Disappoints

http://www3.zippyshare.com/v/wf103Ays/file.html
In Lucifer s01e07, Maiz is only briefly booted at the end, the star is an unnamed table top dancer in thigh boots.

Suede vs "suede"

It seems very clear to me that one of these boots comes from a cow and the other comes from a laboratory. The pictures come from here and here.
