Shoe Fetish: these biker boots from AllSaints

AllSaints, or AllSaints Spitalfields as it's officially known, was born out of the UK as a menswear brand, although today, clothes for both ladies and gents feature directional design and exquisite leather jackets.

The splurge-worthy brand appeals to those who like their clothes ever-so-slightly pre-aged and marked by a simple, somewhat moody palette that's often mixed into experimental prints. Their clothes at once channel the past and a (quite possibly Mad-Max-esque, post-apocalyptic) future.

But what you should take a closer look at is their line of rock 'n' roll-infused boots and shoes. Whenever the temperature dips, we reach for the heavy-duty, Gore-Tex insulated boots that sometimes fail to accentuate the natural line of the foot. Enter AllSaints' Jules Heeled Biker boot—a hand-finished, Italian leather biker boot atop a thick, easy-wearing 10 cm heel. The leather sole features an injected rubber forepart, which offers a bit of much-needed grip in the slush, while the buckled stirrup is removable.

Add a pair of leather-trimmed tights and you're good to go.
