The Skechers Guide to the Best Boots for Winter
The cold rolls in, and suddenly trainers just don’t cut it anymore—you need a great pair of winter boots. A pair that’ll keep your toes toasty, handle slushy sidewalks, and look great when you’re headed out. Here, we’ll give you our best winter picks, plus top styling tips.
What Skechers offers when it comes to Winter Boots
A solid winter boot has one job: keep you warm, dry and comfortable. It might seem like any boot is up to the task, but it all lies in the details. Here are some of the things to look out for when you’re shopping for a great new pair:
Insulation. A lined boot is a lifesaver. Fleece, faux fur or thermal padding all keep your toes cosy even when the temperatures start to fall. Paired with the perfect socks, your feet will stay snug, no matter the weather.
Water resistance. Snow and slush can easily creep in if your boots aren’t designed to keep water out. Look for waterproof uppers—or at least a water-resistant coating—so you’re not stuck with soggy socks for the whole day.
Traction. Icy sidewalks can take you by surprise. A grippy sole helps you stay upright even when it's slippery underfoot.
Support. If you’re doing a lot of walking, go for boots with cushioning for your arches and ankles.
Versatility. Go for a pair that you can wear with a few different outfits, rather than a style that only looks good with one or two. A pair that goes with jeans, leggings or even casual dresses will get way more wear.
Best winter boots
The best boots for you will depend on two main factors. First is the kind of winters you’ll face (think very cold and icy or more mild). The second is whether you need boots to conquer the great outdoors, or just the day-to-day runaround in the city. Let’s break it down.
Best winter boots for men
When you’re on the hunt for men’s winter boots, think durable, comfortable and built to last. Sturdy soles and a rugged vibe will usually wear well, no matter where or how you wear them. Look for slip-resistant outsoles and waterproof uppers for maximum performance. Here’s a quick look at some of the styles you’ll find when it comes to winter boots for men:
Hiking-inspired boots. These are lace-ups with weatherproof leather and cushioned midsoles. They’re trail-ready but look just as good with jeans.
Insulated ankle boots. These are lighter than bulky snow or hiking boots but still warm. They’re great for commuting, errands, and everyday life.
Workwear-style boots. Think chunky soles, solid stitching and padded collars. They’re tough but stylish, especially with denim.
Best winter boots for women
For women, the best winter boots need to handle the weather and work with different outfits and silhouettes. Luckily, there are plenty of options. Fashion meets function here, with many styles offering faux-fur lining, slip-resistant soles, and waterproof protection.
Tall boots. These might be calf high, knee high or higher. They’re great with leggings or skinny jeans. Your calves stay warm and the wind is kept out.
Faux-fur lined boots. The ultimate cosy and cute winter boots. The lining adds warmth but also delivers a punchy style that works with a variety of outfits.
Chelsea boots. Waterproof versions of these are golden in winter. They’re sleek, versatile, and match almost anything.
Fashionable city boots. Comfy heeled leather or suede boots balance style with practicality, making them ideal for day-to-night winter looks.
Hiking-chic boots. These are all about chunky laces, tread soles, and a trendy edge. Practical but still city-friendly and surprisingly versatile.

How to style winter boots
Here’s the fun bit—styling your winter boots in all the ways you want. Here are some of the basics, but you can experiment just as much.
With jeans. Slim or straight-leg jeans tuck nicely into boots. Got chunkier boots? Roll the cuff a little to show them off.
With leggings. Pair tall or lace-up boots with an oversized sweater. The result: instant cosy winter vibes.
With dresses. Midi or sweater dresses with ankle boots are a classic winter look. Add tights for extra warmth.
Layered looks. Layer up your look with boots, and bring some extra warmth. You can even layer up socks: slouchy ones peeking out of lace-ups add a relaxed, cosy vibe.
Neutral boots like black, tan, or grey always come in tops' versatility. So you can wear them with pretty much anything. Or go bold. Burgundy, forest green, or even pastels can make boots the star of your outfit.
A great pair of winter boots for men or women aren’t just nice to have. They’re a key part of your everyday look once the cold sets in. Start with the basics: insulation, waterproofing, grip and comfort. Then, pick a style that matches your vibe, whether that’s outdoorsy and rugged or sleek and ready for the city.
At Skechers, we’ve got all the boots for men, women and kids to carry you through snow, slush, and chilly mornings feeling your very best.
