Bring! On! The! Boots! If there’s one thing appropriate for pretty much any season (even summer, if you’re brave enough), it’s boots and booties. For those of us who believe you can never own too many of the chic shoe, the 2020 boot trends are a welcome addition to our boot arsenals. You’re going to want to make some major room in your closet—or shoe rack, or under your bed—because the upcoming boot trends came to walk all over previous years. Expect to see your favorite styles updated for 2020, as well as some new looks in the mix. 2020 is officially for boot-lovers.
Boots and booties trends are arguably some of the most fun to play around with because they don’t differ too much from year to year. I mean, buy a good black Chelsea boot and you’re pretty much set for years to come. However, the 2020 boot trends will give us all a chance to try out something new. Whether it be a bright pop of color, some metallic glam or letting your socks do the talking, 2020 is sure to be filled with the chicest boots. Below, you’ll find eight boot trends you can expect to reign in the new year. These boots and booties were made for both walking and looking stylish as hell.
