Does anyone know how they measure the height of boots? I've seen boots that are shorter but claim to be taller than other boots.

A pair of hunting boots I got from LL Bean, were said to be 7" tall. The 7" was measured from the bottom inside of the heel area to the top of the boot. Overall height is 8.25" from the floor to the top of the boot. Not saying all mfg'rs measure boots the same.

I would have to agree that different companies likely measure boot height different ways. If you plan on buying online it may be best to run by a store that sells the model of boot you are buying and try on a pair to make sure they fit properly.
