Hi, everyone welcome back to my YouTube channel if you're brand new welcome
I'm super glad to have you here as you can see from the title today's video is going to be a comparison video
so I will be comparing my two new favorite pairs of boots be stuart Weitzman Highland boot in Black Suede and
the Stuart Weitzman fifty-fifty boot in Black, Napa Leather
I have done a full review on both of these boots that has milo shaft
Discusses my feelings about them shows you them for a bunch of different angles and all that jazz
I will link those down below and I'm going to try to make this one short and not really repeat any of that information
So I will just be showing you comparisons giving you some measurements things like that in this one
It hopes is trying to keep it short. I'm usually pretty bad about that
I usually ramble so I'm going to try my best and in order to get there as soon as possible
Let's get started
Okay, so let's first start with
the sizes so I bought the highland boots in a size 5 and
I bought the 50/50 boots first in a size 5 which is what's in my video?
but then I
Traded those in for a 5 and a half and by traded
I mean I am selling the 5 I bought a pair of 5 and a half so if you are
a 5 and you want those in that size, then let me know contact me about that um I
Just recently right after I put that video up
Went to cert wesson and tried these highland boots on in a 5 and a half
I talked in that video about it was very tight around my toes on my left foot
But it was very tight and supportive around my ankle so 5 and 1/2
was way too big on my ankle and quite roomy in the toes, so
Leo more roomy than I would sort of need
So I think that I made the right decision with the 5 I do not looking for the 5 and a half in these
the
Sales associate did suggest that I might want to try a 5 wide then it would be a little bit more comfortable around my toes
But she wasn't sure if the angle would be as tight or if it would be slightly looser
And I did really like the sort of tightness around my ankle and the support that it gave in my side
So I think I'm going to give this size keep this size
and then you know, maybe it will stretch out a little bit or
I'll just kind of get used to wearing it at that size
So I did buy these in two different sizes I did originally have these in a five they did fit
But they were a little bit too tight
I wanted to be able to wear them with socks
So I got these in a five and a half so that size life is different
The next thing I want to show you is the heels so I'll show you the bottom of the boots first
So you can see there too, so this one's got some clean second
Motives, they are two totally different
Fields and the bottom of the boot is different the design around the bottom of the boot are
Quite different and even the designs of the heel, so they look entirely different on the bottom and they are completely different boots
They're both by sir whites and they're both sort of the classic sold
And I think they are both rubber soles in that in that sense
They this one is made in Spain and this one also made in Spain
so they were both made in Spain, and you can see
How much bigger the fifty-fifty looks even though it is a half size bigger
But it's because of the shape and the heel of course and bigger really more of a flat boot in fact this heel is one
Inch and
this heel
holding it's kind of funny start this heel is three and a half inches, so
That is something to keep in mind
They're both black heels obviously this one is really quite quite blocky
And this one is you know more typical high heel block so that is that measurement?
So the full height of this boot is
twenty five and a half inches three and a half inches of that is
The heel so from the bottom of the actual where your feel would be it, but that to the top of the boot is
22 inches, so it is sort of the average height
And I did want to say that it depends on the shoe size that you get so if you get a higher shoe size
It's likely this is this shaft part will be taller
They kind of assume that if you have smaller feet you are shorter
Which not always how it works in my case, especially I'm an average height lower average height five foot four
for a woman, but I have small feet I wear five and a half typically in-store Wiseman's, so
that is one thing to keep in mind is the height will be different and usually the height that they
Display and the measurements that they provide are usually for around a seven or an eight something that's considered more average size
So I did want to give the measurements in the smaller sizes so that you could see the difference in that
But so then you can think of the shaft native this is being 22
for this one
the back of the Heel
Back of the back of the top of the calf I guess at the other side of the knee and in the part that goes
over the knee are different heights and this even slopes, so
From here all the way to the total bottom of the shoe is 19 inches again
This is an inch so from where I'm going sometimes goes to the back of your knee is going to be 18 inches and then
All the way up to this part is 19 and a half at the tallest part and that is also
Including the heel, so weight sorry no this 18 not including the heel
And this is 19 and a half not including the heel, so that is how high these go
so the last measurement
I want to give you is the bottom of the shoe at the widest part the widest part of the footbed
So for these it is two and three-quarters inches a lot of people like a three inch width
So that is something to keep in mind
It is two and three quarters
So it is meant to be sleek and tight around the toe
And around all the toe box and into the rest of the foot
Keep that in mind you may want to go with the wide is that is not wide enough for you
Whereas these and of course these are flat your put two shapes differently when you're wearing them
You know you put your pressure in different parts and a flat shoe people tend to like an even more wide shoe
Especially if you want to wear socks, I don't tend to wear socks with heels, so that's something to keep in mind
But this one is three and a half so 3/4 of an inch wider and these are not neither
These are the wide there's a regular width so that is something to keep in mind with those for sure
Ok so the next thing I want to talk about with the comparing is obviously when I would wear them
I wear these for more formal occasion when I would wear heels, and I want something over the knee I prefer this with a dress
Whereas if I'm going on just a casual running errands, and I'm wearing jeans. I like these better
They're more comfortable to walk around for longer because they're not the heels and I find that this napa leather is
So incredibly comfortable it's really
Form-fitting and its really soft and luxurious and wonderful with that, and I think get salt on it
I do live in a snowy climate it easily wipes off whereas suede is a little bit more
Difficult to take care of this is the suede and of course. This is a stretch suede
So it's so so comfortable both of them are incredibly comfortable and soft
Boots that still provide structure, but are just really wonderful and make your legs look great, so I definitely recommend both and absolutely adorable
But suede is harder to keep
Care of so I get more worried wearing these than I do with these and so I tend to wear these more
Because I have less occasions where I want to wear these
But these are really special to wear when I have an occasion that is nice to wear so you can even see
the difference between
These boots right there totally different this almost the part that goes up right almost below the knee is in line with
The back of the knee in this one
So they definitely fit differently these do not fully cover my knees
So I really don't like to wear these with dresses. I really only like to wear these was pants so that
It's not stopping in the middle of my knee to see the top of my knee
I don't prefer that so with dresses for sure this and
Something more casual I prefer these as four
Which is tighter on the legs both of them are pretty much the same?
these case a little bit right at the tippy top on the back of my
the back of my knee basically the back of my calf and
These are sort of fit
Just kind of like a glove all the way up
But then they do
Slouch a little bit above the knee so both of them can be a little loose at the very top if you think about it
in that way
But these look more form-fitting all around my leg these also form fit to my calf
But both are likely to sort of Gather around the ankle sometimes
But in general they both fit really well and both would fit a variety of leg shapes
Because they are soft and they do stress. They're malleable in that way
Okay, so the last thing I want to cover is just the shape of the toe so the 50/50 is really more
of a round toe it's sometimes described as an almond toe but I find it much more round and I find this a
Much more almond shape so you can see the front of the boot
They're both very pretty the way that they frame the leg and the foot
the ankle I guess you could say, but the toe boxes are completely different shapes and
They definitely this is more sleek on your foot. It makes your foot look smaller and
It's prettier on your foot. These are more casual
They still look nice, and they're not pointed toe so we're not elongated your foot in any way and the round looks nice
But it is a very different shape, so I would call this one almond and I would call this one round
So I have heard people refer to this as an almond toe as well. I
Hope that that was helpful. It was just a quick review
I'm happy to answer any questions
Or if you want me to cover anything else that I might have missed please just let me know I recommend them both
I love them both for entirely different reasons
They are great for very different occasions
And they're different levels of comfort in
That way depending on if you can wear heels then you can walk in heels for a long time you might be more comfortable
In those I do like the way that my legs look more in the highland books than I do in the 1550s though
I really still love those and I think they're wonderful boots
I like them more than any of my boots that just go up to me high level and like that
Over the new height and look even though it is not going fully over the knee in the 50/50 boots
But I hope that's helpful. I hope that that helps you determine
Maybe the sizes that you want you can see the model shots in the other videos if you want to see them on your leg
But depending on what you're looking for
I mean, I suggest getting both if that's something that you want, but just figure out your lifestyle
What do you want them for one is going to wear them and then what material you want?
Based on that because you can buy both of these in the napa leather or in the suite
So I chose to do suede for the more formal over the need occasion kind of boots
And I chose to do the napa leather for the casual
But you may want to switch that or you may want to get both in one kind if that works better for you?
but I hope that that gives you some information and that you can use that to your advantage to
Decide which ones you want if you have either, please let me know which you prefer
And if you have both tell me which one you love and why?
