When it comes to finding comfortable boot styles, there are a few things to look for. One: a heel that’s lower than five centimetres. According to podiatrists, when you go over five centimetres in the heel, it starts to put weight onto the front of your foot.
Thickness is also key — the thicker the heel, the more stable it is (plus there’s less risk if you spraining an ankle).
The good news is that because a boot offers support on both sides, these are a great option for people who have weaker ankles… but still want a little height.
And while some boots require several days’ worth of breaking in — which means you’re bound for at least a day of discomfort wearing them — these 10 boots will leave your feet feeling like they had a day at the spa from the instant you put them on.
