The summer boot style has both pros and cons. If you want to incorporate them into your look, you need to keep in mind the points you need to pay attention to. In this issue, we focus on the situation of boots in summer and introduce some points to keep in mind and some examples of outfits!

Is wearing boots in summer a good idea? Or not?

Whether or not it is appropriate to wear boots in summer depends on personal preferences and tolerance to heat, but I would venture to say that it is possible, depending on the material and design. For example, if you are going to wear boots in the summer, we recommend that they be made of suede. It is said that suede shoes are breathable as a characteristic of leather and are often worn in desert areas. As proof of this, suede shoes called “desert boots,” as typified by Clarks, were originally worn by the British Army for desert operations because of their breathability.

The height of the cut should also be noted. Boots that are high enough to cover the calf, such as engineer boots and Pecos boots, are simply not suitable for the intense summer heat, as they have a large area where heat can accumulate.

As a general guideline for boots to wear in the summer, it is better to keep them to short boots, about ankle length. If the boots are shorter in length, there will be no problem even if you choose a material other than suede.
