The knee-high boot is back in every fall assortment, but Ulla Johnson’s Carlyle earns a closer look because the shape is specific without becoming costume-y.
The Noir version is made in Italy from black lizard-effect leather. It has a tapered square toe, pull-on shaft and 60 mm heel. Price: $1,200.
Worth it for shoppers who want one directional black boot to wear repeatedly with midi skirts, denim and tailoring. Skip if you need a weather-proof winter boot: the finish is fashion leather, not snow gear.
