When it comes to boot trends, some have a short lifespan, quickly floating in an out of relevance (ahem, Moon Boots), and others like those classic styles you're used to seeing continually pique the interest of style lovers for years on end. Today, I wanted to focus on those heavy hitters that you can get lots of use out of—you know, those styles we all can't seem to get enough of. I've highlighted a selection of three classic boot styles that will continue to occupy our mind space in 2023 and Beyond.
I've handpicked fashion editor–approved boot selections in kitten-heel, platform, and knee-high boot styles that are absolutely gorgeous. Ahead, shop a wide variety of boot selections that'll please any and all tastes. Calling all the sartorially inclined— you don't want to miss out on hours of digging for these top-notch product picks. I can't think of a better way to enter 2023 than with boots made for walking confidently through the year.
Kitten Heels
This style proves height is not everything. There's something slick and cool about itty-bitty heels with such a demanding presence.
Platforms
A little lift never hurt anybody. The exaggerated height of platforms has been capturing the hearts of retro style lovers for decades and continues to do so.
Knee-High Boots
It's hard to go wrong with a good, classic pair of knee-highs. From Western takes to lace-up styles, knee-highs are absolutely everywhere and will continue to be in the foreseeable future.
