Are there similar boots for Genesis 8 female? Thanks.

No, not "out-of-the-box."
If you feel like putting a bit of work into it, Sickleyield has a tutorial that shows how to convert clothing, shoes, and hair between Genesis 3 and Genesis 8, either direction: [Tutorial] Convert Clothing G3 to G8, G8 to G3 .
Or if you'd rather, SY and RSA have collaborated on a series of products that will do most of the work for you. For these boots, you'd want to pick up .Clothing Converter from Genesis 3 Female to Genesis 8 Female.
I don't know about similar boots for G8F. Perhaps someone else will be able to answer that for you.
I have tried many methods to get heels from one generation to another and none of them has worked perfectly. This converter that LAdair linked to is the closest I have seen, but there are still issues,mainly the mesh warping to a degree. https://www.daz3d.com/clothing-converter-from-genesis-3-female-to-genesis-8-female
If you need some great boots for GF8 check out lilflame or Arryn's stores at Rendo
I really wish they could add morphs to the shoes/boots themselves like what many of the clothing wearables have because some of the shoes/boots don't fit very well even on the intended actor/character type; especially if you want to have socks or stockings on underneath. Unless I'm missing something, trying to increase the footwear size or making the feet smaller doesn't work due to how the surfaces, out of necessity, need to follow one another.
depends on who you purchase from. Arryn at Rendo includes quite a few morphs, both for adjusting fit and heel/sole morphs. Alot of their products come with pantyhose also. If you need a good universal pantyhose product, idler168 has a stocking set at rendo that is texture based and looks great with any heels.
For a lot of my renders I just give up and hide the actors feet and pose the boot or shoe as needed. While their are many excellent shoes and boots most simply do not come close to confirming to the foot poses they are supposed to be able to.
Seriously, Renderosity has a LOT of good stuff I would like to see here. I would've already purchased a few utilities from there, but they don't have a DIMwit installer, if you know what I mean, and I'm a bit apprehensive with the thought of messing about with Daz's file architecture and trying to install new content manually because all it takes is one little mistake with a file(s) to throw Daz out of whack. When it comes to stupid and Daz, that's me! Maybe over the holidays when I have some extensive desk-time at work I'll set up an account over at Renderosity and ask for details in the forums about how to download and install content from there.
Sorry to hear that. I don't ever use DIM, Smart Content or metadata. As long as you know the file path, it's usually (98% of the time) a simple unzip to the right folder (Studio for DAZ content and Content for Rendo content)
Like I said, I'll have to ask there about installing stuff. If worse comes to worse, I'll use a program to prevent any permanent changes and just experiment with content installation. If I screw up, I can just reboot the computer and try again. If it goes well and the product & components work, I can just write down what I did for the installation, deactivate the program, and do it again to make it stick.
You don't need to ask the forums over there how to do it, it's very easy.
If you're not using Smart Content/Connect, daz studio can be quite forgiving with folder installation. If you download manually, ALWAYS unzip to a dummy folder and check it out before installing into your DS runtime. ALWAYS.
rdna uses zip files so all you have to do is download it, unzip to a dummy folder, and then move the folders over. You CAN change the name of certain folders so you can find them easier - for instance, if the particular item you have bought has the folder called "Brian's Fancy Green Dress that is SO COOL" that contains the 'dress', you CAN rename it to "G8F Green Dress" for example. You can also put the folder of mats into that folder so you don't have to scroll down to the "pose" folder to find them. It's very very easy. NEVER change or rename the main folders tho.
As for boots that would fit G8F here natively, dx30 is quite a prolific shoe maker here at DAZ.

I use lots of customer folders to install content; some of those folders are for items from other stores.
