How to Get Your Jeans to Not Look Loose in the Knees When Wearing Boots

Wearing boots over jeans can look odd if not worn correctly.

Whether you have a new pair of over-the-knee leather boots or a pair of winter boots, getting your jeans to look tight rather than loose in the knees is possible with a few wardrobe tips and techniques. Regardless of the type and style of boots you have, help make your jeans look tight and fitted.

Things You'll Need

• Tight socks

Instructions

1. Wear skinny or boot cut jeans that will fit within the shaft or opening of your boots. In addition to your jeans, purchase slim or tight socks that are long enough to tuck your jeans into.

2. Tuck your jeans into your socks before tightening or zipping up your boots by pushing the bottoms of your jeans in equally around all sides of your socks.

3. Pull and tug your jeans up tightly, and zip them closed to press the jeans against your legs without causing wrinkles in the knees.
