As the temperatures drop, it’s time to embrace layers, cozy evenings, and, of course, boot season. Nothing beats the joy of digging through your closet for those perfect pairs—be it tall, short, or ankle boots. And this year, we have an extra reason to celebrate: combat boots are officially back in style!
Forget about your flip-flops; it’s time to channel your inner rebel (or the high school version of yourself, if you will) with these edgy kicks that not only elevate your shoe game but also stir up a wave of nostalgia. I can’t believe I parted ways with my beloved Dr. Martens after college. I donated them thinking I’d moved on, but now I’m regretting that decision big time! Those iconic boots would look fabulous with my favorite boyfriend jeans right now.
Combat boots graced the runways at New York Fashion Week, proving they aren’t just for casual looks with distressed denim and vintage tees (though that combo is a classic!). They pair beautifully with flowing dresses and skirts, creating a striking contrast that screams effortless chic. And let’s not forget how fantastic they look with leggings and a cozy oversized sweater—seriously, it’s the ultimate “I’ve got it all together” vibe.
You can tuck your pants into these bad boys, wear them over jeans, or style them with your favorite cut-off denim shorts. Combat boots are versatile enough for anyone, regardless of age. Just last weekend, I spent an afternoon trying on various pairs with my 12-year-old daughter, and we were joined by a fabulous woman in her 60s who couldn’t resist picking up a pair for herself.
Today’s combat boots come in a plethora of styles compared to what we had back in the ‘80s and ‘90s. From high to low cuts, with heels or buckles, there’s something for everyone! For some stylish options, check out these fabulous finds:
- Macy’s has a tough-looking pair in black and brown for under $80 that’s not too clunky.
- The Dr. Martens Persephone Boot from Journeys brings a funky, feminine silhouette that pairs wonderfully with just about anything.
- If you’re feeling adventurous, there’s an over-the-knee style available for under $50 that could push your fashion boundaries.
- For those who want to make a statement, a stunning velvet floral pair for $60 is sure to turn heads—my daughter can attest to that!
- And of course, the classic Dr. Martens combat boot, reminiscent of simpler times while binge-watching teen dramas and living on ramen. For $135, you could almost relive those days. They also have a great deal at Famous Footwear for $89.99. Ah, the ‘90s dream is alive!
So, if you’re a shoe enthusiast like me or just yearning for a trip down memory lane, now is the time to invest in a pair (or two!). Just make sure you hold onto them this time—they’re bound to come back into fashion, and you’ll want to be ready when they do.
