Trainers, boots and ankle boots

Low-profile and more substantial trainers create different effects with the same trousers. For boots and ankle boots, also compare shaft height, opening and fastening: these affect how you put them on and style them.

To compare footwear families, start with how much of the foot you want covered and how you prefer to adjust the fastening. Lace-up trainers let you adjust different areas of the instep; slip-on boots need an opening that allows entry without becoming too loose when walking. Sandals and clogs change toe and heel coverage depending on the design.

Open options for warmer days

Strappy sandals, slides and clogs offer different levels of coverage. Compare fit and material before choosing. The men's sandals and slides collection brings together several constructions to explore their differences.

Consider the relationship between sole and clothing too. A substantial trainer can balance wide trousers, while a visible boot shaft changes proportions with shorter hems. Try them together and avoid fabric dragging. If you want leather, suede, fabric or synthetic materials, check each part separately: the upper does not determine the lining or insole composition.

How to compare two pairs

Measure both feet and consult the design's size chart.

Distinguish foot length from insole length.

Try footwear with the socks you plan to wear.

Check toe room, heel support and pressure over the instep.
