The autumn-winter season is here and it's time to buy boots, but you hesitate between several models and end up buying ones that you don't like how they look... does this sound familiar? As we don't want you to experience this situation again, we bring you a small guide with which you can find your ideal boot style. Discover your perfect boot type and feel like yourself with Alpe.
What type of boot suits you best?
Knowing yourself is the first step to knowing what suits you and what doesn't. Aspects such as height, body type or leg length are essential to determine which footwear suits you best and you should take them into account when buying your next adventure companion.
Below, we explain in detail the tricks and tips that will help you succeed in your next boot choice.
People of large build.
Women with a larger build should be careful with the calf area. If you are one of them, you will know what we are talking about. In this case, our recommendation is to avoid boots that reach halfway up the calf as they will be uncomfortable, add bulk, draw attention to this area and shorten your figure. We recommend that you opt for models that are tight to the leg and have a slight heel to lengthen and stylize your silhouette. For example, the Alpe Monza high-top or the Alpe Janis high-top can be an interesting option.
People with thin build
Even though it may seem like it's easier, there's something to it. You can play around with ankle boots, over-the-knee boots and everything in between. Thin, wide heels and flat shoes will also suit you. However, avoid wedge platforms. If you have very narrow calves and aren't keen on how boots look on the upper part, you can opt for sock boots, which adapt very well to the shape of the body. You'll love how the Alpe Cecile or Rose ankle boots look on you.
Short people
TO If you are short on height, heels are your ally. Platform track boots are also a good option, which will add a few centimetres to your height. Also opt for models that are just below the knee, in light colours and without any decorations on the top. This way, you will lengthen your figure even more. An extra tip: wear leggings, tights or trousers in the same colour as your shoes to enhance this lengthening effect. You could try the Alpe Soho or the Liverpool, they are our favourites.
