Waterproof Lace-Up Boots

Rain, slush, cold and wet streets: this is the boot for city winters. It keeps your feet dry all season in a smart, sharp-looking boot that's light and comfortable enough to wear from morning to night. It's the pair you reach for when the weather turns but you still want to look put together.

Our Waterproof Lace-Up Boots are made in Portugal using the same advanced injection-moulding process as our Waterproof Derbys, the kind usually reserved for high-performance hiking and sports footwear like our WVSport collection. The dual-density PU sole is moulded and fused directly onto the upper in one piece, creating a completely sealed base that keeps water out. A PFC/PFA-free Sympatex® membrane sealed inside takes that protection up to the lace line, so rain, puddles, slush and wet ground are no problem. A deep-lugged tread gives solid grip on wet pavements and cobbles, yet the sole stays light and flexible underfoot, more like a trainer than a traditional boot.

The uppers are onMicro® waterproof microfibre, a breathable, PFC-free vegan leather that keeps water out while letting your feet breathe. Because it's fully synthetic, it won't rot, crack or spoil the way natural leather can when it's soaked and dried over and over, and road salt won't mark or stain it. A quick wipe with warm soapy water and they're clean again, which makes it an ideal material for boots that see a lot of weather.

Inside, breathable onSteam® linings wick moisture away and resist odour, and thick, removable cushioned insoles absorb shock and keep you comfortable all day. Recycled polyester laces with metal tips finish the look.

The design is clean and refined: a classic cap toe, neat double-stitched quarters and a sleek ankle-height profile, with a heel pull tab for easy on and off. They look just as good with tailored trousers and a long wool coat as they do with cropped jeans, or a midi skirt and tights. They're a polished pair for work, travel and everyday city life in all weather.

These are the boots you can wear anywhere this winter, whatever the weather, without thinking about it.
