Autumn/Winter Shoes

Designers offer a fashionable way to protect yourself against the cruel elements during the winter and keep your feet warm. The men who want to go casual and slightly aggressive should look for thick crepe soled brothel creepers, either buckled or laced up in big and bulky styles. For those who want a less aggressive look, the return of the classic ankle boot with a thicker heel is an option.

As usual the boots are the big issue with the women. Slim-shaped boots made of firm polished leathers, lacquer or new leather with a crocodile leathers effect. The legs are usually knee-length again, often made up of a patchwork mix of materials or colours, but also with new style wave-shaped inlays, narrow trims, fine pipings or contrast quilting. Medium high upright heels as well as domed-shaped ones - often curvy on the inside - characterize the silhouette of new boots and bootees.

Men can jazz up an old plain pair of boots with leather laces tied around the ankle and under the bridge of the foot. Brogues come in the traditional browns or mocha and mahogany.

Dark leathers are favourite for this winter look. Colours such as black and nearly black, very dark purple, green, or inky blue-black are perfect colours for the darker evenings. Brogues come in the traditional browns or mocha and mahogany. Laces are worn short, just enough to tie a tidy bow. Boots and shoes may have some fine piping or raised leather detail around the vamp or heel.
