Riding Boots

Edited by
Words by

You don't need a horse to justify a pair of riding boots. The classic equestrian style is one of the most timeless styles to have in your winter boot repertoire. In fact, so enduring is the silhouette, it has barely altered from its military origins and looks just as chic today as it did when worn with a navy blazer and straight jeans by Princess Diana in the eighties. Add to your winter layers for functional ease and instant polish.

Top Tips

Stay true to the heritage of riding boots by opting for flat soles and a knee-high length in good quality leather.

While minimal styles are both enduring and versatile, a discreet buckle or horse-bit detailing add timeless embellishment.

a riding boot is a foundation piece, so stick to classic colour ways: black, brown, or tan.

Top Tips

When wearing riding boots with trousers, opt for a slim or skinny leg that can easily be tucked in.

Layer over tights and use a long boot to make shorter hem length winter-ready.

As we move into spring, wear your riding boots under lighter-weight midis and trench coats as an effortless transeasonal outfit.
