Alaïa takes the season’s love for hiking boots to new heights. Available in black, white, and leopard-print, this style is set on a vertiginous 135mm stiletto heel.
White Eyelet-Embellished Leather Ankle Boots, $1,800 at Net-A-Porter
Embellished with the house’s signature eyelets – each one polished for a high-shine finish – they have been expertly made in Italy from smooth white leather and feature a gripped rubber sole for added stability.
Black Eyelet-Embellished Leather Ankle Boots, $1,800 at Net-A-Porter
Alaïa’s ankle boots highlight the label’s acute attention to detail – the French brand’s Tunisian founder Azzedine Alaïa would work tirelessly through the night to ensure each piece was crafted to the highest of standards. He died last year on November 18, in Paris, France.
Made in Italy from smooth black leather, this pair is covered with gleaming silver eyelets and has a cushioned heel tab for a comfortable fit. The coated laces ensure they’ll stay in pristine condition no matter how often you wear them.
Leopard-Print Calf Hair Ankle Boots, $2,060 at Net-A-Porter
Leopard print is one of the season’s biggest trends. Alaïa’s statement boots have been crafted in Italy from tactile calf hair and sit on a towering 135mm stiletto heel.
