It is a universal fact in the world of styling that the right pair of boots can transform an entire look. However average your fit, however tattered your top half, whack a chunky sole of the right specification on your feet, and you’re sorted.

But with great power comes great responsibility. When a boot does the heavy lifting, building your outfit from the ground up, it can also dictate your vibe. So, choose it wisely. Let’s get to the variants.

MARTIN MARGIELA, IS THAT YOU?

No, it isn’t. But the person with this wardrobe rotation is dying to tell you that his Doc Martens’ are an MM6 collab. No shade though — they always look great.

Next up, there’s the loud girl. Her boots are Ancuta Sarca, her heels are sharp and her tongue is sharper. She’s nailing the Y2K trend, but with sophistication—less cringey slogans and diamanté overload, more sleek racing stripes and inventive textures. A little bit weird and a little bit wonky, AVAVAV is her ride-or-die (just her being is a piece of performance art), and she’s accessorised with a hint — but just a hint, mind — of Collina Strada cuteness. She’s unapologetic, a little chaotic, and definitely the centre of her friendship group.

But what if you like things a little more timeless? This Bally boot is a fashionable take on the classic countryside welly, and it’s just as suited to your urban escapades. With utilitarian charm aplenty and a refined silhouette, it’s perfect for those who blend practicality with polish. Clean bombers, quality hand creams and barely-there ballet pumps are the staples of this person’s wardrobe. And if you have a very expensive cabin retreat to stomp about in, even better.
