The appeal of a boot or bootie goes way beyond the fall and winter months — especially when traditional spring deliveries hit while the weather is still quite brisk. In fact, most designers have adjusted styles to offer weather-appropriate options. The result? A boot covering the whole foot, but in more springlike colors and themes. Gianvito Rossi’s garden mood resulted in an floral print. Chiara Ferragni literally saw stars with her celestial-inspired silver bootie, while Creatures of the Wind went mod with a striped black-and-white number in a collaboration with Newbark. And when it comes to comfort, these styles go the distance with reasonable, chunky heels.
