*Not* Suede Boots: The Rich-Looking Boot Trend Fashion People Everywhere Are Wearing With Jeans and Skirts for Fall 2025

Suede boots are an It boot trend every fall, but this year, a fresh style is already becoming the favorite: croc-embossed boots. These shoes are everywhere, worn by every fashion person, especially those in London, Milan, and NYC. For example, during Milan Fashion Week, at the Gucci show, model Lila Moss wore knee-high, heeled croc boots paired with a matching croc miniskirt and a black turtleneck. In London, content creator Rikke Krefting Ulstein styled ankle-length croc-embossed boots with white jeans and a long trench coat. I recently wore a pair in NYC with blue straight-leg jeans and a white tee.
Croc-embossed boots walk the line between bold and classic. They are made from stamped or treated leather that closely resembles crocodile skin and come in simple shapes such as flat ankle boots or kitten-heel knee-highs. IMO, they effortlessly enhance any outfit with their depth, elegant shine, and rich appearance. The best part is that there is a range of pairs from brands like H&M, Madewell, and Toteme, catering to all budgets and styles.
