Ted Baker Knee High Boots Resale Value

Ted Baker knee high boots: price by condition

Seller-declared grades, sterling with an approximate US dollar equivalent at £1 ≈ $1.33 (July 2026). What each grade means.

What holds its value across Ted Baker

• Tailored suits and blazers, which are the strongest part of the label and are bought secondhand specifically for weddings and interviews
• Occasion and cocktail dresses in the distinctive floral prints, which buyers search by print rather than by style name
• Older pieces from before the 2018 restructuring, which were made to a noticeably different standard and are recognised as such
• Pieces still carrying their branded buttons, linings and hanging loops, which are the details that identify the label at a glance

What pulls Ted Baker resale value down

• Pilled or thinned wool on the tailoring, since the whole appeal is that it still looks sharp
• Faded prints on the dresses, where the print is the reason a buyer chose it
• Missing branded buttons, which are distinctive enough that a replacement is always visible
• Anything from the outlet and clearance channel, which was built to a lower spec and sells accordingly

Identifying and dating yours

1. The interior label carries the Ted Baker size numbering, which runs 0 to 5 rather than standard sizing and confuses buyers — state the equivalent in your listing
2. Branded lining and engraved buttons are the label’s signature and worth photographing close up
3. Older garments carry a different label design, which is how buyers date a piece to the pre-restructuring era

What lifts any knee high boots, whatever the label

Knee-high boots are judged on shaft condition and calf fit, and the calf measurement is what listings most often omit.

• Supple leather with no cracking at the ankle
• Shafts that stand rather than slouch, if the style intends it
• Working full-length zips
• Recognised makers with a following

And what pulls one down

• Cracking at the ankle flex point
• Broken or split full-length zips
• Slouched or misshapen shafts
• Very narrow calf fittings

Working out what yours is worth

1. Measure the calf circumference and shaft height
2. Work the full-length zip several times
3. Flex the ankle and check for cracking

What to state in the listing

• Size as marked, with UK, EU and US equivalents
• Calf circumference and shaft height in centimetres, measured flat
• 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.

Preparing and photographing it

1. Measure the calf circumference at the widest point of the shaft, with the boot zipped and lying flat.
2. 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.
3. Stuff the shafts so they stand upright, and clean the leather or brush the suede before photographing.

1. The pair standing upright, full height, side on
2. A tape measure across the calf at the widest point of the shaft
3. Both soles and heel tips
4. The zip full length, the inside label, and any crease, scuff or scratch

When it sells best, and handing it over

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.

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.

What buyers ask

What size is a Ted Baker 3?

Ted Baker uses its own 0 to 5 numbering rather than standard UK sizes, and a 3 generally corresponds to a UK 12. State the standard equivalent and the flat measurements in your listing, because this numbering is the single biggest source of returns on the label.

Does Ted Baker hold its value?

Modestly. It sells steadily rather than at a premium, and the tailoring and occasion dresses do best. Everyday pieces compete directly with the high street and are priced against it.

How much are Ted Baker knee high boots worth?

Roughly £25 to £110 depending on condition, against £25 to £110 for knee high boots generally. The identification points above are what move a listing to the top of that range.

What the fees would take elsewhere

At the mid-range £67 for Ted Baker knee high boots, against what the commission marketplaces would deduct:

Seller-side rates verified 26 Jul 2026, percentages only — the per-order and processing charges those platforms add are excluded, so the real gap is wider.
