Boots: what to wear and how to do it this fall
December 22, 2017
We give you the keys to the 5 trends in footwear of the season and the style tips to show them off.
Years ago they abandoned the rudeness of the countryside to raise the flag of 'cool' in the city. They have managed to make their way among the most classic shoes, and that is still many reluctant that do not understand that the style does not have to be a substitute for the practical but a simple addition.
Comfort and informal elegance are the two pillars on which this type of footwear is based, the key to which is how and when to wear it. The other great challenge is to choose the model well among the 5 trends in boots of the season, which one do you prefer?
Chelsea
Goodbye to the annoying cords, hello to the elastics (although these last ones do not finish convincing too much to their detractors).
These low-top boots are more than 200 years old, but they are named after the London neighborhood where the "Swinging" movement of the 60s was created and which made this comfortable footwear go around the world.
They are favorites by celebrities but, do not make mistakes, you do not need to be a rock star to include them in your day to day. It is enough to choose between the many suede or leather models that exist in the market and bring them your own personality when wearing jeans or even with a suit if it is not for an event that requires a label.
Alpine
There are many companies that, like Prada or Moncler, have successfully reinterpreted high mountain footwear this autumn.
Thick soles, ultra-resistant laces, broad lasts, ankle supports and even specific trekking materials that despite their sporting aesthetics will not look out of place in the city.
Of course, forget to risk mixing them with sophisticated clothes and wear them with jeans or tracksuit pants taking advantage of the 'athleisure' style.
Jodhpur
With the creation of riding trousers that protected the inner area of the legs, it was no longer necessary to wear the uncomfortable high boots for this practice. This provoked the appearance of a boot with a rounded tip and a side buckle named after the city in which, they say, it was created.
His transfer from the world of horse riding to the traditional male wardrobe can be done with a casual suit or tight pants, allowing the leather to look behind the hem, fleeing from too loose fittings.
Chukka
It is the classic booty with laces that lies somewhere between the formal and the casual, but with the advantage of being resistant and sober at the same time.
Normally it is made from suede, although its continuous evolution has led it to be made in all kinds of materials.
Its versatility makes it a basic season after season as it can happen to be a shoe. Your traveling companions, the chinos or the straight cut pants.
Biker
Perfect to bring out your most rebellious side based on leather jacket and worn pants. The biker boots with large buckles on the sides or even zippers still have their space, although in a residual way, in the seasonal collections.
The best? You can mistreat them as much as you want, the more careless they look, the more style points you will add.
