In case your calendar isn't quite as detailed as mine, rest assured that we're still deep in the heart of boot season as part of your full rotation of men's style essentials for winter. And just in case you're growing somewhat tired of the cold and of your current rotation of men's boots, well, here's a new pair to shake things up from my friends at Huckberry.
The Huckberry Boot Shop, as luck would have it, is jam-packed with a full array of versatile, rugged, durable and even refined boots for nearly every occasion, and the Sanders Wilson Apron Derby Boots check off quite a few boxes nicely in terms of versatility.
British footwear maker Sanders is well-known around these parts for making some of the best chukka boots (my Sanders boot review has the scoop), but these expand on that footwear craftsmanship a touch further in terms of coverage, support and durability.
The Sanders Wilson Apron Derby Boots look like a pair that stepped right out of Peaky Blinders, with durable moc toe construction, the six-eyelet build more closely associated with work boots, and yet plenty of handsome details built right in.
Of note, the Sanders Wilson Apron Derby Boots feature rich leather (either Tan Waxy, a personal favorite, or distinctive Milkshade suede), with hand-finished detailing and tough Goodyear welt construction. In fact, that Goodyear welt's resoleable build should work nicely with the Vibram Christy Moreflex sole -- that sturdy sole should provide maximum grip and shock absorption. Interior suede lining adds a soft, comfortable and supple touch.
And best of all might be the fact that the profile on the Sanders Wilson Apron Derby Boots is streamlined enough to wear with either faded blue jeans or chinos (in just about any color) for more polished, office-ready style.
And as Tommy Shelby of Peaky Blinders might tend to do, these boots would also work handsomely with a charcoal wool suit for the ultimate in winter tailoring excellence. Find them now at Huckberry to shake off the winter blues, my friends.
