There are a few fall boot silhouettes that are more or less staples year over year and hold strong within the ever-changing trend cycle. Yep, chunky boots are one of said styles.

We also pulled some visual inspiration from fashion people in the shoe silhouette to give you a few outfit ideas. We're talking about everything from a laid-back ensemble to something a bit more dressed up. Keep scrolling for the ultimate curation of the boot trend that will never go "out."
1. Ankle Boots
You can't go wrong with a classic pair of chunky Chelsea boots. Pair your favorite pick with a neutral midi dress for a flawless fall outfit.
2. Lace-Up Boots
