12 Boots That Will Outlast Winter

The American designer's identifiably posh aesthetic comes through just as much in her rugged footwear as it does with pretty party dresses. These Tory Burch Henry Booties in Black ($349, originally $498) combine classic equestrian wear with the warmth of a cozy lining.

The New York-based label brings a Manhattan sensibility to its well-constructed designs. Styles like these Rag & Bone Compass Boots in Camel ($695) pair a sturdy Goodyear sole with luxurious lamb shearling.

If anyone knows Winter, it's the fine folks in Maine, and G.H. Bass has been making quality footwear there since 1863. The legacy lives on in these Nadine Hiker Boots in Grey and Mustard ($135), which combine the label's iconic design with a modern color palette.

With more than 150 years of experience, Frye means business. The label's sturdy, handcrafted, Winter-friendly pairs, like these Natalie Cuff Lug Fur Boots in Dark Brown ($598), feature rubber lug outsoles and Italian leather.

There's nothing like a classic — and L.L. Bean's Bean Boots in Tan and Brown ($199) are a true classic! Gore-Tex-lined and Thinsulate-insulated, this durable yet breathable Maine-made pair will keep you warm when it's (literally) freezing outside.

The Canadian outerwear label's signature silhouette gets a modern and edgy update with Sorel's Joan of Artic Wedge Boots in Black ($250). Premium materials like waterproof leather have made the brand a staple of adventurous feet since 1962.

No matter what your experience with UGG boots is (hands up if you wore them with denim skirts back in the day!), one thing remains: they're pretty darn comfortable. These Viki Waterproof Boots in Port ($220) are darn cute too, with a cold-weather-ready hiker silhouette that's embellished with a pop of pink.

The ski-ready brand you count on to keep your body warm on the slopes is equally dependable for your feet. Moncler's Ginette Boots in Black ($360) combine an elegant form with a rugged, waterproof exterior.

Miuccia Prada's quirky label isn't just known for high-fashion runway designs. At its core, the Italian house can be counted on for quality construction and fine materials, as with these Prada Suede and Fur Ankle Boots in Deserto ($990).

If it's good enough for Gigi Hadid . . . ! The model's go-to footwear brand of stylish yet comfortable designs hits peak wearability with cozy flat boots like Stuart Weitzman's The Belowdeck Boots in Ocean Blue ($321, originally $535).

Red Wing's work boots, well, work hard when the temperature drops — hey, it's no coincidence they're based in Minnesota. The American brand's collaboration with Madewell on 6-Inch Moc Lace-Up Boots in Oro Brown ($290) puts a fresh spin on the 110-year-old design.

This New York-based label's durable footwear is made with the spirit of travel in mind. Matt Bernson's Legion Boots in Brown ($350) are tested for comfort — and thanks to full shearling linings and sturdy lug soles, the weatherproof pair will definitely come through when you need them most.
