As winter rolls around once again, colder temperatures leave us no choice but to bid adieu to our favourite summer sandals.
But casting our summer footwear to one side means it’s time to bust out our favourite pair of boots—or invest in a new pair, of course.
A good quality pair of boots will always be worth the investment, and while the latest trends come and go, there are some styles that can last the test of time.
Luckily for us, 2020 winter boot trends have longevity written all over them.

Want to elevate your winter wardrobe? From square-toes to knee-highs, keep scrolling to see the six winter boot trends for winter 2020.

The White Boot
The trusty white boot has skyrocketed in popularity this season, and we can certainly see why. White boots can be used to elevate any outfit, as they’ll match almost anything in your wardrobe. Whether you prefer to wear bold colours or stick to neutrals, invest in a pair of these and watch your wardrobe transform.

The Square-Toe Boot
While we’ve seen the square-toe many times before, the trend can easily be worn outside a summer sandal. An innovative way to upgrade your winter wardrobe, the subtle change in toe can elevate any mediocre, cold weather outfit.

The Slouchy Boot
This ’80s-inspired trend has been a runway staple for the last two years, as seen in Celine and Isabel Marant, to name a few, and it seems as if the style is here to stay. Pairing perfectly with winter staples and party pieces, the slouchy boot can give any mid-length dress or trouser a completely different look, becoming the perfect day-to-night boot.

The Lace-Up Boot
Reminiscent of ’70s era Stevie Nicks, this eccentric take on the classic boot is far from vintage. The style is back with a bang, with many sporting both knee-high and mid-length versions. Keep your feet firm and secure, and add some vibrant laces to elevate your potentially flat winter outfit.

The Combat Boot
If you’re a fashion obsessive, then you’ve surely spotted this boot trend making its way around the industry. While the humble combat boot may be a relic from the late ’90s grunge era, the thick, platform soles and calf-length leather structure has certainly made a comeback. With cult-favourite brands, like The Row and Bottega Veneta leading its revival, there’s no wonder why it’s become a crowd-favourite on any rainy day.

The Knee-High Boot
While a knee-high boot is hardly a new fashion discovery, this winter staple continues to reign supreme. Whether they are flat, equestrian-style or a sky-scrapping stiletto, a knee-high boot not only provides warmth but also offers the illusion of an elongated leg.
