“When it comes to rugged fall boots, Timberlands undoubtedly reign supreme,” says Sam Peters, senior fashion and luxury commerce editor. “For a more feminine take on the brand’s iconic 6-Inch boot, I’m obsessed with this platform Chelsea style. Not only is it grippy on slick sidewalks thanks to its chunky lugged sole, but it’s also insanely comfortable via a buttery soft leather upper and Ortholite footbed. What’s more, it’s a cinch to slip on when I’m running out the door. I own these in a now sold-out stone color, but I think the classic Wheat Nubuck finish would make a rich addition to plenty of autumnal outfits as well.”
