Casual boots

Casual boots
Boots are fundamentally casual, that is why you should only wear them with jeans or chino pants.

They come from rugged roots, and that’s embedded in our perception of them.

Do not wear any casual boots with a formal suit, and certainly not for a black tie.

You can wear ankle boots with skinny jeans that are cuffed, tucked in, rolled under, or with a pair of jeans that hits at the ankle.

If your boots are short, don’t tuck them in.

If your boots are tall, they’ll look best with tucked-in skinny jeans.
