Another day, another purchase influenced by TikTok [1]. The latest fall footwear [2] to take the app by storm are the now-viral fold-over boots from Macy's, currently on sale at 40 percent off. Popular for their leg-lengthening effect, the sleek, knee-high boots feature a pointed-toe design, cuffed shafts, and a stiletto heel.
Aside from the recommendation to size up half a size, TikTokers have been giving their stamp of approval left and right over the past few weeks. Creators shared excited try-on hauls and visits to Macy's department stores showing off the chic, comfortable shoes, which come in cream and black colorways.
While the boots were already reasonably priced at $130, they're now available for $78, which Macy's claims will be the "lowest price of the fall season." One TikTok user, jaderobertson__ [3], gave the boots a "10/10" rating for their quality, sizing, and color. Another, TikToker vichkey_ [4], described them as "an impulse buy that I do not regret one bit," adding that she loves "how much calf space there is for ladies with bigger calves." If you're looking for more room, there's also a wide-calf version of the boot with the same design and price tag.
Many have also noted their similarity to Givenchy's famous Shark Lock boots [5], worn in recent months by the likes of Kylie Jenner, Nicki Minaj, and Halsey. Though the designer fold-over boots cost an extravagant $1,995 and boast chunky metal padlocks engraved with the Givenchy logo, shoppers can still look to its brand muses for styling tips and inspiration.
