Hunter Boots

There is nothing I hate more than rain boots. Not because they aren’t the most fashionable but because they have no height to them. I’m short and to be honest I love my heels. I wear heels every single day and there is no doubt in my mind that I will have a back problem in the near future. Pretty bad, but at least I always manage to look fashionable and taller.

In New York, whenever it’s raining you see tons of people all over the city sporting rain boots. They all look the same just with different patterns. This is why I like Hunter Boots “Verbier” Wedge Boots. The wedge gives them some height and they have a lace up detail. Definitely a different take on the everyday rain boot.

I probably will never buy a pair of rain boots but if I had to it would definitely be these. I like that they come in different colors and I think what I love the most is the wedge. More rain boots should feature some height, it gives it a little more style. Overall, I would say they are cute and a much better alternative to the tacky rain boot.

You can purchase the Hunter Boots “Verbier” Wedge Boots with Lace Up Detail at Shop Bop for $175.

From World War I soldiers to royal families to today’s fashionistas, Hunter has provided us with rainy-day footwear for over 150 years. Originally created to combat Scotland’s unpredictable weather and rugged terrain, Hunter is committed to durability and performance. But it looks like this designer has decided to branch out a little bit. Yep, the original Wellies designer is now producing a line of handbags!

These classic, equestrian-style pieces are sure to become just as iconic as their footwear cousins. But don’t worry, they aren’t made of rubber. Instead, these structured pieces are made of sturdy leather that is sure to stand the test of time. My two favorite pieces (seen pictured here) are the Ascot Satchel and Adelaide Field Satchel. Both feature crisp, clean lines and simple buckle details. Plus the Ascot Satchel sort of reminds me of Mulberry! I wasn’t kidding when I said they were classic styles!

Discover Hunter handbags at Bloomingdales! Prices range from $395 to $595.

It’s autumn, which means it’s that time of the year again to stock up on rain boots.

My pick is for the original famous Hunter boots in the classic forest green. It was the first in this style, made back in 1956.

What makes Hunter so unique compared to other boot makers is that the watertight, light weight boots last much longer and are made with stronger, more durable materials. Also they just look so simply fabulous.
