Black Kneehigh Boots

Today's short (a little less than one minute) video features black leather knee high boots and was uploaded to YouTube by lostboots in October 2007.



This clip begins with someone wearing a pair of blue jeans tucked into black leather kneeboots and sitting on a chair. The image is at first dark and uninspiring, making it difficult to see more than the basic details. However, by 15 seconds into the video, the scene has changed to the same person walking inside a room and the earlier lighting difficulties are completely removed.

Now we are easily able to see these beautiful boots walking slowly and deliberately towards the camera, giving us plenty of time to notice how the light reflects off them, and how the tight blue jeans fit snugly around the model's figure. At 23 seconds into the clip, the model makes her closest approach to the camera, standing seemingly immediately in front of it as she turns to face away from us.

For an instant, the knee boots that have been the focus of our attention slip below the camera's field of vision, leaving us to concentrate briefly on their wearer's denim-covered rump. Almost immediately, she begins to walk away from the camera, and her black leather boots are once again visible.

Surprisingly, this shot gives us even more detail than we had seen as she walked towards the camera, revealing a very clear view of the the lacing that runs all the way up the back of each knee boot. The trailing ends of each lace are visible behind her knees, standing proud of her sexy boots as she walks towards a wooden bench and rests her left boot upon it.

This pose offers us the opportunity to inspect the back of her right boot, which remains firmly on the ground. At 34 seconds we are treated to a closer inspection of the crossed laces rising from above her ankle, holding the leather kneeboot tightly around her jeans. At 41 seconds we have a similar view of her left boot, the bends and folks in its black leather surface clearly visible as it follows the contours of her foot and ankle.

Again, reflections gleam from the leather, in contrast to the matt texture of the laces and jeans. The video ends, after another brief interlude in which the camera focuses on her posterior, with both boots firmly on the floor and facing away from us. There is some sound in this clip, but it is not immediately obvious, not least because the model appears to be walking with deliberate care to emphasise the appearance of her wonderfully sexy knee boots.

As a result, there is very little opportunity to hear the creak of leather or the scape of her soles on the hard floor as she walks, although there is a hint of boot-on-wood contact when she puts her foot on the bench. I didn't find that this had any seriously detrimental effect on the video, though - it would have been nice to hear those kneehigh boots creaking as she walked, but there was enough other detail for it not to matter.

Overall, a very nice video, going from a shaky start to surprising detail in just a few seconds. It's only short, but these kneehigh boots are well worth watching!
