Biker and equestrian boots emerge as key footwear trends for Autumn/Winter 2026

Footwear trends for the Autumn/Winter 2026/2027 season are seeing a resurgence of both equestrian-style and biker boots.

Equestrian-inspired boots, characterized by knee-high silhouettes, slim legs, and low heels, are highlighted as a practical yet elegant choice for cold and rainy weather. Sienna Miller has been noted for wearing black equestrian-style boots from the brand Dune, pairing them with tailored shorts and navy sweaters.

Simultaneously, biker boots are returning to prominence on fashion runways. Major luxury brands including Dior, Balenciaga, Chloé, and Fendi are incorporating these rebellious styles into their collections. Trends include distressed leather, suede textures, and metallic buckle details. Specific models such as Dior’s Bolt ankle boot and Chloé’s Dakota calfskin boot are noted as key pieces for the upcoming season.
