There are certain shoes that have become true wardrobe staples over the years – leather ankle boots, cowboy boots, knee-high boots. As of this year, it’s clear that the suede ankle boots have earned their place in the list – especially when it comes to dressing for the cold winter months. And it’s easy to see why. Suede has a soft, velvety texture that brings an instant richness and sophistication to any outfit. Plus, 2025 is proving to be the year of all things suede regardless. Whether it’s boots, bags, skirts, trousers, jackets, or even hair, we can’t get enough of it.

So, how are we wearing them? Well, the most stylish It-girls are getting creative. They’re pairing their pointed suede ankle boots with tailored wool trousers and even baggy jeans. The key to wearing this classic closet staple is contrast. Try combining their soft texture with structured garments for balance.
However, these ankle boots are not just another accessory – they can also be the key piece that holds the whole look together. They work with wide trousers to emphasise the length of the leg, as well as with satin, lace or even knitted fabrics, which can add a little delicacy. And when paired with rich, decadent fabrics like leather or wool, they only enhance their elegance.
