As I mentioned back in January, I was obsessing over Serena’s grey over-the-knee boots when I watched epsiode 3 of Gossip Girl but soon learned they were completely sold out in grey! I opted for the black and dark brown suede pairs and a leather pair recently (yes I’m obsessed with over-the-knee boots) which are equally amazing, I rock them all the time and get compliments left and right about them.
The good news is that Chinese Laundry has brought back their best selling boot of the season, the sister boot of Strate, Top looks 99% identical and is available in a variety of colors - including GREY. I quickly jumped to joy and copped a pair myself just now, so hurry before they’re gone once again! Thanks to Maria for the tip!

were you able to go to the chinese laundry booth at magic? they had so many of these boots it was like heaven.
I have a question, is the Chinese Laundry Strate boots the real boots worn by her? I ordered the Strate from Amazon.com and had my grandfather ship it to Canada, when i got them they were huge on me, i think i could’ve been a size 7 instead of 8 (what i ordered) and also they were extremely wide (what i mean is they did not cling to my leg; was that the design of the boots? i though they were supposed to be tighter). I was really disappointed with them, plus it cost me$21 dollars for shipping to Canada
Just wanted to share.
ooooo those grey ones are so nice!!!
you can use coupon “COUPONPOUCH” for 10% off
Just an FYI regarding those Steve Madden Latchh boots you posted about earlier (that were in the target preview)…someone had posted that barefeetshoes.com had them so I ordered them (feb 8). on feb 12 it was still processing so I emailed them asking if they had an expected ship date. They replied the next day (feb 13) saying they received the order and it started processing the next day and how long to expect it to ship, etc. I got another email 2 days later (feb 15) saying they canceled my order because they were out of stock!! What a disappointment.
My hubby called to complain but they said they can’t show on the website when things are out of stock and it’s basically too bad for us. 
So….I’m glad you found the boots after all! It’s nice when things DO work out!
sorry…meant to say that they said they received the order on feb 8 and started processing the next day. i dont know if that made sense or not. ;P
nice! i love my black suedes..
the STRATE which is the orginal boot has a 12″ circumference…
the TOP which is the sister boot has a 14″ circumference…
i have average size calves and i could fit jeans that were not skinny into my strates…
so TOPs must be huge on the calves… maybe fit sum wide leg jeans!
yay! thanks i think i will most def add this to my collection of chinese laundry boots =) i have tip in black suede & leather.
i’m just addicted to gossip girl.and i really love serena’s take on constance’s uniforms. the sweater vest is SUPER CUTE!! i haven’t found one like that yet..
thanks for the tip!!
There is a 20 off coupon for CL website on retail me not. I used it last week to buy the grey top boots. The run a little big, I normally wear a 7.5 to 8 and I got the 7.5 and could have prob gotten the 7 and fit. really cute though. suede is not good quality but i ended up paying like 80 bucks so i don’t really care.
I also found the Purple, Black Leather and Brown ones at flyJane.net. They are all of the Chinese Laundry Over the Knee boots. They also have FREE shipping!
Is there any way to get those shoes if you live elsewhere than the US (or Canada)?
I forgot: is the Top ones the same nuance as the Strate coz they look lighter in the colour?
Sorry to spam like this. But found out that flyjane.net actually do ship internationally.
I bought a 7 and a 7.5 of the TOP in ASH GREY and figured out I am a 7. I love them even though they are a lil big, there are some lil tricks you can use to collect/gather the excess material as well. Now I just have to send back the 7.5
I clicked on the link up and the boots aren’t there… =(
Please!! I’m totally obssesed with those boots, so if anyone knows where can I get them online I would be really thankful.
tammy ~ i just tried and its not there anymore b/c its sold out!
does anyone know where i can get these boots in grey or black i cant find them anywhere.. totally sold out and somewhere that ships to the UK
thanx
ash xox
I absolutely love how comfy these boots are, but at the same time, i wish they also made the same style, but with maybe a 3″ heel.
They have these boots at Macy’s for $79.00… And if you’re Canadian, all you have to do is show them a drivers license and you get an additional 11% off..
Good luck!
oh my goodness! thank god for this blog post or i would not have known that my most favorite boot ever was back in stock!!! after seeing serena wear these on gossip girl all i could find was black available!!!! am immediately getting a pair in grey and dare i say……..red!
