Boot's history can be traced back to very ancient times. Boots became famous with both genders in the Victorian era. These boots are referred to as Victorian boots, granny boots, gothic boots, or witch boots. By the mid-1800s, boots became the most popular form of footwear worn by both men and women.
Women's Boots were form-fitting, comfortable and drew attention to the women’s calf, and offered good support to the ankles. The ankles were basically covered to protect them from men seeing them, but the intricate, tight lacing on the ankle boots had a titillating effect.
