Christian Louboutin Kate Botta Alta 100 denim over-the-knee boots

What stands out about the Christian Louboutin Kate Botta Alta 100 denim over-the-knee boots is how little it tries — the brand lets the construction do the talking.

The Upper: cotton, sole: bovine leather build comes through in blue, UK 3.5, with a finish that holds up to close inspection.

Suits a wardrobe where fewer, better pieces matter more than keeping up with trend cycles.
