Here comes the rain — we knew it would but that doesn’t lighten the blow. What might, though, is ditching the suede trainers and a morning of misery in sodden feet and slipping into something more practical. Boots, bring it on.
The bulky stomper boot, with thick soles and plenty of attitude continue their boom from last year. This season they’ve been updated with pops of colour and patent leathers — but they retain those same confidence-boosting soles. Fashion forward cowboy boots have slipped into grittier, harness-strapped bikers, while strong shearling hiking boots (also big for the coming season) have the practicality and warmth to last the winter.
