Question about "back zip" boots

[Emily363]

I love knee high boots with stilettoes! A couple pairs of my knee boots are "pull ons" but most have zippers on the inside of the boots. I just saw these with a back zipper from BR.

I also saw these from JCrew that have back zippers.

I haven't tried them on, just saw them on their web sites. Do any of you have knee high boots with back zips? Are they comfortable? Are they easy to get on and take off? Do they fit better than those with side zippers?

Thanks for any inout you may have for me.

P.S. I have noticed that many Jimmy Choo boots have back zippers.

From a design standpoint I like back zippers better, it gives symmetry (very important to me) and plus like in the BR pair they can have extra decoration. Most boots zip on the side because its easier to reach and the zipper is less obvious.

Yes, they look good, especially when they are not the usual black when inside zips show up more.

The only problem though is that it's very difficult making sure that the bottom of the zip doesn't rub on your heel ....instant blisters
