Now you might have some questions about how to pick the best work boots for you. Ultimately, it comes down to style preference and comfort.

These questions might have also popped in your head:

ARE WORK BOOTS BETTER TIGHT OR LOOSE?

For ultimate comfort, it’s best to choose a well-fitting work boot that has a bit of room. If you’re on your feet all day long or putting in the steps to get to your workplace, your feet might expand slightly. So make sure they have a bit of space. Nobody likes a squished foot!

IS IT STILL FASHIONABLE TO WEAR KNEE HIGH BOOTS?

Yes! Knee high boots are back in a BIG way. And they’re perfect for dressing up jeans, popping under a loose, flowy skirt or going casual and cute with leggings and an over-sized chunky knit sweater.
