Fashion hasn't always been thought of as practical, so whenever we see styles popping up that happen to be comfortable or easy to wear, we like to lean in. Right now, we're shopping for boots, and there's one style that has seemingly dominated the market; the utilitarian boot. Think thick, lug soles, lace up styles, and picks that are made to move with you. They're weather resistant, comfortable, and actually cool, which we weren't sure was possible.
Channel some Mad Max vibes with these 16 boots that can take you anywhere you need to go. From combat boots to rubber waterproof styles, these are the picks we actually want to wear, and they'll be staples in our closet for years to come. Keep on reading to shop our selects.
