The combat boot men’s shoe trend

You may have seen this rugged boot popping up on various #menstyle feeds here and there. Perhaps, you have even seen someone rocking a pair in the streets of Soho. So what’s up with the combat boot making it’s rounds in men’s fashion?

Why we love it

Perhaps it’s our internal appreciation for those that serve to protect the country (many of which are bit fans of the Nike field boots), but there is something visually pleasing about this men’s shoe that has caught the eye of fashion influences in the street style scene. The combat boot packs both durability and a rugged urban feel into an otherwise casual outfit. Below are a few places on Instagram that we have seen this look flourish.

The wrap up

With the underground urban-style subculture beginning to flourish it’s probably safe to say that this trend might stick around. The boots simply look pretty damn cool and people seem to enjoy the look. What you rock a pair?
