If you’re looking for a less-expected alternative to the classic Highlander style, the fall runways served up slouchy over-the-knee boots that feel a bit more relaxed than sleeker fits of years past. Amazon shoppers love this boot in particular because it offers editor-approved style that comes in multiple colors and leather types, so you’re sure to find a staple.

They also come in a seriously impressive range of colors, including faux hikers and neon options. If you’re wondering how TF to style them, keep the rest of your outfit classic to balance out the shoes and let them shine.

A glowing review: “Got these for a festival and was floored by how lightweight they were! Still very durable but not so heavy which was great for lots of walking. Nice sturdy platforms, held up well to lots of dancing and jumping, and I got tons of compliments on them.”

A latex padded footbed cushions every step and makes them comfortable to wear for hours. Choose your heel height — both 2-inch and 3-inch options are available within the listing — then try narrowing it down to just one color. With the best selection of transitional shades, you’ll be tempted to grab a few.

A glowing review: “They are elegant, easy to put on with the back zipper, and affordable. I had to take them off going through security at the airport, probably because of the zippers, but they were easy to get off and back on again in a hurry.”

Franco Sarto’s knee-high riding boots also have equestrian appeal but with some gorgeous details that make them street-ready.

The rubber sole is flexible yet sturdy. Some shoppers thought the leather was a little stiff, but it broke in with a couple of wears. (As leather tends to do.)

A good rain boot is a must-have any time of year, but especially during the soggier months when staying dry is essential for keeping warm. Opting for a taller boot gives you the leeway to wear it through winter, and investing in a good pair is well worth it in this case. Meghan Markle’s go-to rain boots are handmade from vulcanized rubber with a wicking liner so feet stay dry inside and out. I’ve personally worn these several years in a row to climb city snowdrifts, where they kept my feet surprisingly warm under a couple pairs of socks. (The traction is good, too.) They’re sturdy, practical, and they last for ages so you get a good return on the British heritage investment.

A glowing review: “I have had this pair of Hunters for going on three years now, and I cannot say enough about them. The biggest testament to their comfort: I walk about 4.5 miles to work each day (round trip) even in the rain/snow, and these boots are just as comfortable on the last mile as they were on the first.”
