For some, it’s the September equinox that truly marks the arrival of autumn, but for me, it’s the moment that my daily shoe collection shifts gears. After spending months slipping on sandals and easing into ballet flats, the sudden downpours and cold mornings of the new season have encouraged me to look further afield when completing my outfits, and now it's officially time for boots to return to the fore.

This week, I launched my annual search for the greatest boot offerings and having cemented the places of a series of luxury offerings, my attention has turned to the more affordable side of things. Scanning through the high street offerings, it’s clear that H&M is putting its best foot forward this season, ticking off 6 key boot trends for autumn 2025.

Boots have long secured their spot as a key buy of the autumn season. The ease of styling with everything from knit dresses to tailored trousers has ensured that stylish people continue to rely upon this shoe every single year. Of the various styles around, particular trends rise and fall each year, with a few classics that are able to maintain their spot. This year, H&M has identified both key styles and returning trends for the new season, with a selection of affordable yet expensive-looking styles to choose from. Let's get into it.

H&M has a clear understanding of the classics, turning its attention to two styles that consistently prove their timeless nature and elegant appeal. Of course, it's the knee-high boots and the ankle boots. The versatility of each is that they can be shown off with skirts or simply spotted peeking out under wide-leg trousers. This season, H&M is looking to the most refined colourways to make these affordable pairs stand out, with classic black, deep burgundy and a soft brown, my personal favourite.

For those looking for something more striking, it's time to explore the animal print boot selection. This season, leopard print, snake print and tiger print are bringing a fresh update to minimalist looks everywhere. This season already, suede fabrics have swept over fashion, accenting everything from jackets to handbags, and now H&M is celebrating the textural update in boot form.

I've also taken the time to call out block heel boots as a returning trend for the season. Whilst there is something to be said for the elegance of a thin-heeled style, these chunkier soled boots are a sturdy offering for the coming season, destined to take on damp and dreary days alike with ease. If you're feeling bold, there's also a selection of knee-high boots on offer that may have even tempted this devout trouser wearer back into a mini skirt.
