The Right Way to Wear Boots in Warm Weather

Boots can definitely be worn year-round, says Men’s Health Associate Fashion Editor Dan Michel. The trick is picking a pair that remains comfortable when the warmer temperatures roll around.

“Where your insulated winter boots will look strange, a simple leather pair will come off as cool and rugged,” says Michel.

Good examples would be a waterproof pair, like Timberland’s rugged Chestnut Ridge 6-Inch Waterproof Boots, to keep your feet dry during summer storms or Chippewa’s clean, uncomplicated Crazy Horse General Utility Service Boots, which will work with most outfits. Lighter colored leather automatically looks more seasonally appropriate than dark browns and black.
