An afternoon spent walking the halls of a museum or historic site calls for a boot that keeps up quietly, and this mid-height ankle boot does exactly that. It slips under trousers or a longer skirt and settles into the part of the wardrobe you reach for without thinking.

The upper pairs real leather with hard-wearing synthetic, and a warm cold lining makes it a practical choice once the weather turns. A textile insole sits underfoot, and the lightweight thermoplastic elastomer sole flexes as you walk while the block heel keeps you steady on uneven ground. The pointed toe and closed shaft give it a clean, finished look in a normal fit.

A side zip runs the full shaft, so the boot goes on and comes off with one easy pull.
