These boots are designed to enhance a variety of styling styles, from active styles such as biker, work, and outdoor wear, to dressier styles such as suits and jacket pants. They are also useful for balancing out winter coordinates in which voluminous winter outerwear and thick layers of clothing are the mainstay, and they show their potential for adding presence to the feet of wide pants and baggy jeans. In this issue, we focus on boots and introduce styling tips, the latest international men’s coordinates for reference, and recommended items from standard brands!

The most important thing for men to consider when styling boots is the balance between boots and bottoms
The most important thing for men to consider when styling boots is the balance between the volume of the boots’ form and the silhouette and length of the bottoms. In addition, it is also important to determine whether the boot fits into the bottom hem opening or not, and whether the top of the boot should be tucked into the bottom hem opening or boot-twinned. If you want to emphasize the shape of the boots, choose short length bottoms, and if you want to fine-tune longer pants, roll up or boot twin your pants. If you choose thick-soled boots with lug soles or biblum soles, you can also avoid making the boots look bad by wearing full-length wide pants or baggy jeans to balance the boots and bottoms.
Dressing Point (1): “Pair slim dress-oriented boots with slim slacks or skinny jeans.
Boots that are slim in shape and suitable for dress wear should be paired with slim slacks, dress pants, or skinny jeans. Pair them with cargo pants or work pants. Be careful not to wear them with cargo pants, work pants, or other rugged bottoms, as they will be a mismatch.
Dressing point (2) “In winter coordinates where voluminous warm outerwear and layers are the mainstay, it is a common technique to balance the look with thick-soled boots.
In winter coordination, where voluminous winter outerwear and thick layers of clothing are the mainstay, it is a common technique to balance the styling with thick-soled boots with chunky soles. Sneakers and loafers with chunky soles are of course an option, but thick-soled boots are the best choice if you also have winter protection in mind.
Point 3: “Work boots and biker boots add to the masculinity of the outfit and give it a bold and masculine look.
If you want to boost the masculinity and brawn of your styling, work boots or biker boots are the boots to choose. Work, American casual, and biker styling, in particular, go well with tough-looking boots, and there is no sense of incongruity when combining work with biker boots, American casual with work boots, or biker with military boots. The styling and the masculinity of the boots will resonate with each other and raise the sense of brawniness.
