As per the history, they were found in the tomb of Khnumhotep (2140–1785 B.C.E) in Egypt. Greeks were also believed to wear simple bags like boots of untanned leather with fur and a thong of leather lashed to the leg. The simple basic form was a part of the traditional dressing of Asiatic and Arctic cultures, as it represented the ruling and military power.

A Boot is a form of footwear that covers the foot, ankle, and some parts of the lower calf. They were made with different fabrics like leather, fur, or rubber. But with the introduction of modern designs, the new material has also made its way into the industry. They are not only wintertime fashion accessory but they also protect us from strong cold winds and freezing temperatures in snow covered areas. Boots were also an essential part of dressing for workers and mountaineers as they protect them from causing any injury.
