Those familiar with luxury footwear may have already be familiar with Marsèll, a fashion brand out of Italy. The brand offers handmade shoes and boots in innovative designs for those willing to put their best foot forward in style. Although the brand is mostly known for their women’s footwear, they also make some killer men’s boots in white. Here are the styles that caught our eye. Marsèll Ridged Sole Boots Marsèll takes the classic combat boot and adds some of their own features for a unique boot that is sure to turn some heads. The Ridged Sole boots first stand out because of it’s use of white leather. It’s all white profile is complete with white stitching and laces. Large ridged soles add to the dramatic effect of the boot. Marsèll Sancrispo Boots Although these men’s ankle boots have an intentional distressed look, they are the opposite of cheap. The Sancrispo is made of a supple white calf leather with handcrafted stitching that is made to last. An off-white piece of leather makes up the toe box for a unique color block look. The natural rubber sole does a great job at adding additional contrast yet blends exceptionally well with the white leather. It’s little details like these that make these boots really stand out. Marsèll Goccia Part lace-up, part combat, 100% high end. The Marsèll Goccia is a uniquely designed boot that is sure to turn some heads. The black heel creates a nice color block on the back profile of the boot. The heel also includes embossed circles on the rubber to create some texture on an otherwise smooth leather boot. A rubber sole and laces add a nice tough to an otherwise pure white boot.
You can check out Marsèll and their newest designs on their official website. Their shoes are currently carried at the high end retailer Barney’s. Drive is a cult classic and for good reason. Not only is it visually stunning and a great story but Ryan Gosling gives a great performance as the cool, quiet and collected protagonist. It’s a must-watch if you haven’t already.
What (naturally) stood out to us was the main characters style. Ryan Gosling sports a pair of white leather boots during most of the movie that we absolutely loved. His white boots were paired with black slim fit jeans, and that famous scorpion jacket. It’s a classic and understated outfit (and would honestly make a cool hollowed costume.) We recently found the exact white boots he wore in the movie: Stacy Adams Madison boots. They are white leather cap toe boots that are exceptionally made. Stacy Adams takes no shortcuts in craftsmanship and you can see that with their leather heel, footbed and lining. The white leather makes these boots exceptionally unique as you can only usually find this style of lace-up boot in black and brown. Classic brown and black leather boots are a no-brainer for most guys. But what about white boots? A recent article by Find Your Boots showcased some clean boots styles that inspired us to talk a little bit more about how to style a pair of white boots. Many of the white boot styles available today are far from formal and wouldn’t be appropriate in traditional office or formal event wear. Instead white colored boots are more of an adventurous style choice that pairs nicely with many popular streetwear styles. Although white boots are not formal they do add a layer of sophistication to your outfit. A clean pair of white boots pop and can make you look crisp and put together. A boot can be as versatile as a white pair of high top sneakers if you style it right. Let’s look at some outfit ideas that will work great with a white pair of boots.

Native AP Apex CT A hiking inspired boot that incorporates a throwback design with modern minimalism. The boot is weather proof and incorporates a cool sawtooth outsole for extra grip. The boot itself is not a pure white but an off white “Mist Grey”. This is great for anyone not looking for all white boots but still want an ultra light colored footwear option. Native Apollo Chelsea Boot These all white boots for men look both futuristic and familiar. Maybe it's because they remind us of Stormtrooper boots. Or maybe it’s their ultra minimalist design. The boots are completely white except for the black rubber sole and elastic insets. A small blue pull tab on the back of the boot makes an appearance for branding.
Star Wars is a cultural phenomenon I’m sure we are all familiar with. And Stormtroopers is as infamous as they are cool. Their iconic all white gear is topped off by a pair of white chelsea boots which gives them that dab of English style in an otherwise draconian costume.
White chelsea boots are a must-have for any Star Wars cosplay of Halloween outfit and can sometimes be a bit tough to find. What is currently available today are cheaply made boots intended for costume use as opposed to everyday wear. This can be a great thing if you want to dress up as a storm trooper once a year, but pretty disappointing if you are looking for a nice pair of white chelsea boots for everyday use. We recently found one manufacturer that offers good quality white chelsea boots that are exact replicas of the originals seen in the films. Imperial Boots offers the Classic 421 boot which is an all white chelsea boot made especially for cosplayers and costumes. It’s safe to say that Dr Martens does white combat boots for men the right way. Their mono series of boots and special edition colors have us wondering what’s next from the popular boot brand. Here are some of our favorite white boot releases from Dr Martens that are definitely worth a look. Dr Martens 1460 Smooth White Dr Martens offers their 1460 boot in a smooth white finished leather. Other than the leather color little else has changed. The boot still uses the rubber AirWair sole that is found in their classic black 1460 version as well as black eyelets and laces Dr Martens 1460 Mono White For those that want a true white on white boot then the 1460 Mono is the way to go. This boot is completely monochromatic and ever detail down to the sole is white. This is their iconic boot in a re-imagined white for those who want to take their footwear to the next level. Dr Martens Talib Venice If you are interested in a pair of white combat boots but don’t want go with the common 1460 then the Talib Venice is worth a look. These are white combat boots for men that actually look pretty badass on the feet. It’s made of a full grain white leather that has a softer feel unlike the smooth shiny leather used in the 1460. Pascal with Zipper Aunt Sally Although this boot is unisex it’s marketed more towards women. Nevertheless we had to feature it here because of it’s unique design and complete monochromatic design. We especially like the pebbled white leather on these boots that give it a unique texture.
In 2016 Supreme collaborated with Timberland to release a special edition Classic Field Boot. This often overlooked boot is really the ultimate collaboration with our favorite being the white boot color option.
Let’s start with the uppers. The uppers are made from a of really snakeskin embossed leather with a rich matching suede. The suede is a really nice touch as it blends nicely and doesn’t overwhelm the boot. Next up you have gold colored lace eyelets that really pop against the white leather. Black is tied in on the outsole and laces. Overall this is a really well designed boot. Since these boots were a limited release they are pretty hard to find at retailers. Many buyers will have to look to resellers for a pair. You can usually find these boots on Ebay so we recommend going there first if you are planning on buying a pair yourself. Although it’s all about black knit footwear this season, Y-3 has released a few cutting edge white boots for men over the years. Let’s take a look at some of these awesome designs: Y-3 Warrior High These boots were military inspired and it really shows. They look like a cross of classic military boots and a futuristic samurai. We especially love the incorporation of black in these men’s boots. The black sole and top eyelets don’t overwhelm the look but instead form a nice minimal color block that really helps these boots shine. The materials used in these boots are top notch with a mix of canvas and white leather as well as white rubber on the toe. Adidas + Y-3 Chelsea Boot This is an all white chelsea boot that will surely turn some heads. This is one of Y-3’s most classic inspired footwear styles but at closer inspection you’ll see a lot of surprise elements that make this boot streetwear approved. The large Y-3 logo near the front ankle is loud but works and doesn’t seem too out of place. The pull tab on the back of the boot is striped and makes for a playful design element. The all white sole is a nice touch and really makes this a great minimalist boot. Adidas + Y-3 Pro Zip Well the Y-3 Pro Zip isn’t exactly a boot but it’s the only recent Y-3 offering in all white. These high tops are a mix of the popular Adidas Superstar sneaker and Y-3 own unique design elements. It features a zipper instead of laces and a white hard shell toe. On the uppers you can find off-white paneling that really gives these shoes a nice touch.
The Jordan Future boot by Nike is unlike any winter boot we’ve seen before. Released in 2016, this futuristic take on winter footwear looks especially out of this world in it’s all white option. These boots are a blend of Nike’s Air Jordan signature style with elements of higher end footwear that are usually reserved for brands like Y-3. This makes these Jordan Future boot a great value for the price for anyone looking for something original that still has some trademark basketball shoe elements.
As with all Nike athletic footwear, you can expect the Future Boot to be pretty comfortable. For a boot it features enough athletic features to keep it feeling like you are wearing clunky winter boots. A great example of this is the Jordan sneaker outsoles and cushioned footbed. Foot Locker currently has these boots on sale online. |
