The Comfortable Ankle Boots I've Been Wearing for Years
If you've ever left the house only to find yourself stuck in a pair of boots that quickly pinch and rub your poor innocent feet to oblivion, you get the importance of having comfortable boots to accompany you throughout your busy fall days. And I'm happy to say that I have. A few years ago, having grown tired of replacing my worn-out black fall boots each season, I decided to splurge on a pair that I'd had my eye on for what felt like ages: Acne Studios Jensen Boots. They have the classic look of a Chelsea boot but feel cooler and tougher thanks to the pointed steel-tipped toe and modern design.
It's been several years now since I invested in the Jensen boots, and the number of trips I've taken them on, miles I've walked in them, and people I've raved to about how comfortable they are is countless. Not only that, but I'm proud to say that they still look brand-new, which may have something to do with the grained-leather version that I chose. Each season, Acne releases new on-trend colors and fabrications of the boots (I've added a white pair with pink side panels to my collection), but the comfort level and wearability remain the same. On the off chance that my pair ever does wear out, I can guarantee that I'll purchase another without hesitation.
Below, shop the Acne Studios Jensen Boots I swear by in a variety of colors, along with a slew of other comfortable boots to consider.
