Beyond the Trend: Combat Boots

START

Few wardrobe staples have stood the test of time like combat boots. The heavy-duty footwear first came to form in the military, dating as far back as 1943 in the depths of World War II. The style was constantly updated to improve its features for combat, and out-of-service versions trickled down to the masses in surplus stores. The style then made a journey through various subcultures, from punks to BDSM and almost everything in between. Today, while maintaining its subculture street cred, the combat boot has become a staple across runways and It girl wardrobes alike. Read on to follow combat boots’ journey through the fashion ranks, from street style spottings to the silver screen.
