The Boot Trend Celebrities Are Wearing on Repeat This Season
Often, the "celebrities, they're just like us" adage applies to what they wear, especially when it comes to shoes. They love a good pair of walkable, versatile shoes… just like the rest of us. And since winter has hit pretty hard, even the L.A.-based celebrities have been forced to ditch their Birkenstocks and other foot-exposing shoes in favour of more weather-appropriate ones. Translation: It's boot season.
You may recall that all anyone wanted to wear last winter were track-sole Chelsea boots. This winter is similar but a little different. What we're seeing celebrities embrace thus far is a little less specific: platform boots. Some have laces or zips, some have track soles, some have small platforms, and others have thick platforms. Whichever specifics they choose, it's clear that they're craving cool, comfortable boots that offer a little height. And honestly, same.
Ahead, we've collected some examples of celebs such as Olivia Rodrigo, Zoë Kravitz, and Emily Ratajkowski wearing platform boots and paired them with edits so you can shop some of the season's best styles.
