Gone are the days when winter boots only came in bulky, unattractive styles. While your winter boots should offer warmth and reliable traction, there’s no reason you can’t wear a heeled style when temperatures drop. You’ll want a waterproof option to keep feet dry in rain or light snow, but if you don’t live in a wet climate, traditional pairs work, too. Keep in mind that heeled boots shouldn’t be worn in a snowstorm; flat boots offer more stability in those conditions.
Below, we rounded up a range of chic and functional heeled boots for winter. We included options with features like cozy shearling linings, high-traction lug sole and insulation to keep toes toasty. And of course, some are weatherproof for ultimate protection, too.
Timberland Sienna Waterproof Boot
This versatile leather lace-up boot from Timberland is waterproof from the inside and out. It also features a cushy EVA midsole for comfort.
This chunky style boasts a water-resistant finish, a faux fur lining with WarmWair insulation and Airwair air-cushioned soles for enhanced comfort. Commando tread soles should keep you steady on your feet.
Another tall boot, this leather, block heeled style offers chic lace-up detailing at the back and is fully adjustable to accommodate different calf sizes. Built for comfortable all-day wear, these are cushioned with extra padding at the arch and heel and include a microfiber lining for a soft, breathable feel.
Sorel’s Blake lace-up features a waterproof leather upper with felt overlays for a cool, mixed media look. Its brightly-colored laces are easily adjustable, while a plush EVA footbed balances out the tall stacked heel.
