This Designer Makes Functional Yet Stylish Winter Boots, so I Tried Them

When most people think of Moncler, they think of the puffer coat that gives you instant cool status. Its coats are next-level, as they were originally designed to keep workers warm while they made expeditions in the mountains that approach the border of Switzerland. As the brand grew to be renowned in the fashion world during the '80s, it became known worldwide that all of its winter gear is designed to keep you warm and comfortable no matter how much snowfall hits overnight. And Moncler's snow boots are no exception.

Functionality is quite important to me as a New Yorker. We experience all four seasons, with winter being the most challenging to get through. I grew up with the comfort of only walking to and from my car on colder days, so living in New York and walking everywhere presented a challenge for me. One thing I've learned the hard way is that the right pair of boots makes all the difference. On a snowy day, sneakers will simply not do. It's important to have a few pairs of snow boots on deck. I like to have a pair that I don't mind getting absolutely trashed and then a pretty one to wear once the snow dust settles. Today, I write to you while wearing a pair of Moncler boots. Stay tuned for my review.

If you want to feel like your ankles are surrounded by a warm pillow, I just found the perfect pair of boots for you. It's essentially like wearing a puffer coat but on your feet, which is something that I'm most definitely here for. I love that they can tie up tighter for extra warmth and to avoid letting the snow fall into them. The lug soles are the perfect finishing touch.

I love how eye-catching this shiny style is.

This is the perfect take on the lug-sole trend.

Every detail from the hidden zipper to the subtle logo makes these boots seem so luxe.

I'll take a break from my black snow boots and try these on for size.

Combat boots are always a good idea, especially when they're built for snow.

I've never met a fashion person who doesn't love these.

The short boots are always so dang cute.

The brand keeps bringing back this style because it's that good.
