We believe in the integrity of every boot style, but we also understand the benefits of a concisely curated wardrobe. Space and money are powerful restricting factors, and very few people have the means to buy and store fifteen pairs of boots. Even if you have a closet the size of a swimming pool, with enough money to fill it, you’ll get farther in life with a range of footwear options — literally and figuratively. Do yourself a favor and diversify. We recommend the lace-up, the Chelsea boot, and the chukka. With these three styles on deck, you will theoretically never need to buy another pair of boots. (Although, we couldn’t possibly discourage you from exceeding those parameters.)

1

The Lace-Up

The lace-up boot is the most prevalent style. It’s simply footwear that laces up the shin. Think of this as anything from chunky work boots to delicate dress boots. The most versatile lace-up boots have some heft for durability, along with fine features for formal occasions.

Our best-selling Captain boot’s cap-toe design encompasses the dressiness of a pair made for formalwear, while simultaneously looking right at home with ripped jeans.

The Chelsea Boot

We make versatile boots, but sometimes the ideal pair of pants for the day just doesn’t go with your tried-and-true, go-to pair of kicks. It’s why we also encourage you to invest in our Chelsea boot, the Duke. Chelsea boots run up the leg to the height of lace-up dress boots, feature elastic goring, and ooze metropolitan sex appeal. You’ll hold your chin a little higher while walking down the street in this style, and they’ll give you extra intrigue during nights out.

If you have items in your wardrobe that have been too edgy for you to confidently show off in the past, this boot style will give them life. It’s both punk and proper. Don’t be afraid to wear the Duke with adventurous outfits — whether minimalist and elegant, or extravagant and raw.

The Chukka

The Scout, our chukka boot, is your safe, everyday bet. Although every Thursday boot style is made with versatility in mind, this might be our most accessible style, as it’s lower-profile both literally and figuratively. The shaft runs just past the ankle, but still offers a boot’s durability and support, along with optimal versatility.

You’ll still hold on to some anonymity while walking down the street in this style, despite its sophisticated look. But, you’ll look exceedingly dapper — as timelessness is this boot’s MO. Its more modest silhouette makes it ideal for family gatherings, low-key get-togethers, leisurely weekends, and the office.

Looking for something to wear throughout the year? Low cut, loose, and reminiscent of a desert boot, you won’t sweat to death during warmer months and it looks stylish without visible socks. Think if the Scout in brown as an elegant alternative to boat shoes.

Boots can completely change an outfit’s personality, and every outfit begs for a specific type of footwear. With the lace-up, the Chelsea boot, and the chukka in your repertoire, you’ll have a boot for every occasion. They’re all independently versatile, while serving specific roles in your closet.
