knocks boots

Gets physically intimate

Knocks boots is slang for having sex, evoking the image of boots banging together during vigorous activity.

The phrase is playful rather than crude: We've been knocking boots for a few months now.

It peaked in popularity in the early 1990s but remains understood.
