How to wear chukka boots

If you like to play around with different outfit ideas, there is a high chance that you are a fan of boots. Boots just add a lot of character to your overall look. And with different outfits, you want to match with boots of different styles and lengths. Many of you may be familiar with ankle boots and knee-high boots. In this blog post, I’m going to talk about something else: the chukka boots. For those of you who are new to the field, chukka boots refer to lace-up boots that are usually shorter than ankle boots. Now let’s look at some of my favorite chukka boot outfit ideas.

Since chukka boots look like high-top shoes, you can wear them to replace the high-top converse for your casual street look. For example, you can simply wear an oversized gray t-shirt and leggings with chukka boots for a slightly tougher look than you would normally do with a high-top converse.

This is an adorable outfit that is perfect for fall and winter. Pair a white t-shirt and slim-fit jeans with an oversized black trench coat and chukka boots. This is a good demonstration of how a slightly oversized coat can make you look slimmer. You have to be very careful though as all the pieces have to be balanced or you’ll end up looking chunky instead.
