Used knee high boots in Washington typically sell for $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 Washington
Washington has one of the most transient professional populations in the country, with people arriving and leaving on administrations, contracts, postings and academic terms. Professional clothing and apartment furniture move constantly as a result.
The cycle here is unusually predictable: fixed-term roles and postings end together, and each round of departures puts a wave of furnished-apartment contents onto the market at much the same time.
Metro covers the core well and is the usual way small items change hands. Parking in the central neighbourhoods is difficult and often permit-only, so for furniture it is worth confirming where a vehicle can actually stop.
On anything from a short-term let, ask how long the seller owned it. Items bought for a one-year posting are often barely used and priced to clear, which is genuinely the best value in this market.
Handing it over in Washington
USPS, UPS and FedEx all cover the country. USPS Ground Advantage is normally cheapest for anything under a few pounds in weight; above that the gap narrows quickly.
What knee high boots are worth
What lifts the price
- Working full-length zips
- Recognised makers with a following
What pulls it down
- Cracking at the ankle flex point
- Very narrow calf fittings
Working out what yours is worth
- Measure the calf circumference and shaft height
- Work the full-length zip several times
Getting it ready
- 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.
- Stuff the shafts so they stand upright, and clean the leather or brush the suede before photographing.

- Heel height and type
- Material, zip condition, and whether the shaft is stretch-panelled
Brand, material, size and shaft: “Leather Knee High Boots, Size 6, Black, 38cm Calf”. Putting the calf measurement in the title is unusual and it works, because a large share of buyers have been caught out by a shaft that would not close and now search specifically for one that will.
Listing is free and there is no selling fee, so the whole amount the buyer pays stays with you. You and the buyer agree the handover between yourselves.
