Used knee high boots in the UAE typically sell for AED 125 to AED 545 (about $34 to $150). Knee-high boots are judged on shaft condition and calf fit, and the calf measurement is what listings most often omit.

Selling knee high boots in the UAE
Bank transfer and cash on collection are both normal. Confirm funds have cleared before handing anything over.
The UAE has an unusually active second-hand market driven by how often people arrive and leave — relocation sales mean good-quality items turn over quickly and often at well below their age.
Domestic courier coverage is quick and cheap by international standards, and most of the population is within a short drive of everyone else.
Trading is not open in the Emirates yet, so treat this as a reference page: the pricing and the checks below hold, but the listings will appear once sellers here start posting.
Working out what yours is worth
- Work the full-length zip several times
- Flex the ankle and check for cracking
Getting it ready
- Measure the calf circumference at the widest point of the shaft, with the boot zipped and lying flat.
- Test the zips fully up and down. A sticking zip is the most common fault and, on a tall shaft, it makes the boot unwearable.
Photograph
- A tape measure across the calf at the widest point of the shaft
- Both soles and heel tips
- The zip full length, the inside label, and any crease, scuff or scratch
Put in the description
- Size as marked, with UK, EU and US equivalents
- Calf circumference and shaft height in centimetres, measured flat
- Material, zip condition, and whether the shaft is stretch-panelled
Bulkier than most footwear, so use a proper box and quote postage from an actual weight. Do not fold the shafts to make them fit a smaller box — leather creases permanently.
Autumn and early winter carry this category almost entirely. Listed in September or October a good pair sells quickly; the same boots in April will barely be seen.
It costs nothing to list
There is no listing fee, no selling fee and no commission, so the AED 544 a buyer pays is the AED 544 you keep. You and the buyer settle up and arrange the handover between yourselves; WishThrift does not hold the money or ship the item.

Common questions
Where can I sell knee high boots in the UAE?
List it free on WishThrift and deal with the buyer direct. There is no selling fee, so the whole amount stays with you. Bank transfer and cash on collection are both normal. Confirm funds have cleared before handing anything over.
Do the zips work smoothly?
Run them fully and answer honestly. A cobbler can replace a boot zip, but the buyer should be choosing that rather than inheriting it.
What measurement should I give for knee-high boots?
Calf circumference and shaft height. Those are the two figures buyers need and the ones most listings leave out.
What fails on knee-high boots?
The full-length zip, which takes strain every time they go on. Test it repeatedly before listing.
