When it comes to functional winter style, few examples are as enduring as the coordinated navy looks worn by Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively in New York City on January 24, 2022.
While the couple is often seen navigating the city’s colder months, this particular outing serves as a practical guide for balancing heavy outerwear with distinct footwear.
By anchoring their outfits in a classic navy palette, they demonstrate how to stay warm without sacrificing personal style.

The Deadpool star wore a navy Canada Goose puffer jacket over his dark button-up shirt, teamed with dark blue jeans and matching navy gloves.
He then added color to his outfit with a pair of Off-White x Nike Blazer sneakers in Orange Spooky Pack, first released in October 2018.

Meanwhile, the Gossip Girl actress kept the chill out in an oversized navy coat from the iconic Max Mara brand.
The iconic double-breasted “Teddy” coat ($3,690) is made from an alpaca-and-wool blend and features a notched collar, button front, and side welt pockets.

Underneath, Blake wore a gray top with $199 DL1961 “Emilie” high-rise jeans in a light vintage wash with authentic sanding and pocket grinding.
She also added a pair of thick tan suede gloves and a multicolored patterned beanie with a pompom on top.

She finished the look with a black-and-white snowflake-patterned Maskc face mask and grounded the outfit in Rag & Bone’s “Sloane” boots—an elevated take on utilitarian winter footwear that blends workwear edge with luxury construction.
Rendered in soft cream suede, the lace-up combat silhouette is lined in leather and detailed with tonal stitching and a padded collar for all-day wear. But what sets the Sloane apart is its signature flared crepe sole—a subtly wedged, outward-tapering base that adds both height and stability on slick city sidewalks, making it as practical as it is visually distinctive.
Beyond its polished finish, the design reflects why the style gained a cult following: Italian calf suede offers structure with breathability, while the cushioned interior creates a snug, almost “ski-boot” feel that molds to the foot over time.
The boot originally shipped with interchangeable laces—tonal for a softer, monochrome effect or contrasting for a sharper, more rugged look—allowing it to shift effortlessly between refined and utilitarian styling.

Rag & Bone later expanded the silhouette into a Chelsea iteration, but the DNA remains the same: an oversized crepe sole, padded support, and city-ready durability that thrives in cold weather. It’s also known to run slightly small, with many opting to size up to accommodate thicker winter socks.
The natural crepe sole, while exceptionally cushioned, develops a lived-in patina as it absorbs the grit of winter streets—an evolution that only enhances its character.
And it’s clearly a silhouette Blake Lively relies on; she’s been spotted in multiple colorways, proving that when a boot delivers both form and function in New York’s winter, it earns a permanent place in rotation.

Why Rag & Bone’s “Sloane” Boots Keep Earning a Place in Winter Rotations
From their sculpted crepe sole to their city-ready durability, Rag & Bone’s Sloane boots capture what great winter footwear should do: ground a look, withstand the elements, and still feel considered.
It’s the kind of silhouette that doesn’t just complete an outfit—it quietly defines it, which explains why it continues to show up in repeat rotations, from off-duty errands to polished street style moments.
