Lace-up boots either fit properly or they don't. With laces running from the toe right up the shaft, this pair lets you set the fit exactly where you want it.

The details that make it work

Metal eyelets run the full length of the front opening, so you can tighten the laces across the instep and loosen them at the calf, or the other way round. The mid-calf shaft holds a straight, structured shape, and the closed, rounded toe keeps the look classic. It all sits on a flat sole with a low heel and visible tread, which gives grip on wet pavements and keeps them comfortable for a full day of walking.

Where it fits in

With skinny jeans and a long coat for wet-weather commutes, or with leggings and an oversized jumper for a weekend walk. They're the flat, secure boot for days when heels aren't practical.
