Not that there's anything wrong with timeless black or brown boots (they’re wardrobe essentials, after all), or even the rise of their bright-white counterpart, but if there’s one boot color that has been seriously underrated over the years, it’s gray. We know what you’re thinking: Why go with gray when you have the other neutral hues in your closet? Well, due to the fact that outfits with gray boots have flown deeply under the radar, they’ll naturally serve as a refreshing take on any of your winter outfits. And, not to mention, there has been a steady growing interest in minimal outfits that just so happen to incorporate the use of gray boots. They're versatile and leave any winter ensemble feeling soft and ethereal—all the more reason to add them to your closet if you ask us.
