Men’s Boots Trends Autumn & Winter 2019
There’s a few stand-out styles of men’s Autumn boots that have been dominating the runways. Fashion doesn’t make sense anymore in 2019, if it ever did. Coming out of a summer season where apparently the uglier the shoe, the better, things are somewhat getting back to normality this season.
The Chelsea Boot
Men’s Chelsea boots are well-represented this year. These never normally go out of fashion, but with designers adding them to their collections, Chelsea Boots are back. Those in the know have been wearing them for a while now but it’s taken a couple of seasons for them to return to their status as a mainstream fashion staple. So, if you’ve already been wearing Chelsea boots, congratulations. You are officially ahead of the curve.
Mix it up with different textures, and if you’re going for suede Chelsea boots, make sure you protect the suede from the autumnal elements (invest in a protection spray). Brown is the colour of the season so bear that in mind for any type of boots you may buy this year. Chelsea boots not for you? Zip-up Cuban boots are a good workaround that are similar but different.
Desert Boots
Desert boots are very much in style this season. They’re classic examples of stylish boots for men. Desert boots are a type of chukka boot. Their history goes back to the days of Second World War, as the at-ease footwear of choice. In the decades of peace that have followed, they’ve been co-opted into the world of fashion.
Again, keep brown in mind when shopping for desert boots. Their unique silhouette and design is a good way of mixing up your wardrobe and adding something a bit different. For example, if you get a pair of Chelsea boots, you don’t want to be seen in them every day. Mix things up a bit by getting a good pair of desert boots involved too.
Hiking Boots
The outerwear crossover into the fashion world has been going on all year. There’s no signs of it stopping this Autumn/Winter. Hiking boots are very much in style for Autumn/Winter 18. You can rejoice in the fact that your hiking boots aren’t just reserved for muddy walks in the rain anymore. They’re now at the height of fashion.
We have a wide range of boots that match the style in our lace-up boots section. Pair these with a big winter coat as ‘protection’ has been a big theme of the catwalks recently. With all the chaos and political turmoil going on, there seems to be good reason to protect yourself this winter!
