Mellisande Faux Fur Lined Snow Boots for Cold Days

Mellisande is the most substantial winter boot in the range and priced accordingly. The faux fur lining runs through the foot and up the shaft, and the whole boot is built heavier than the lighter laced styles here. This is the one to reach for on the coldest days rather than the merely chilly ones, and the price reflects the construction rather than any decoration.

Black and brown, both of them straightforward. Black takes any winter outfit and shows the least wear. Brown is warmer in tone and sits better against cream, camel and tan leather. Neither is trying to be a statement, which suits a boot bought for how it performs. Wear either with jeans tucked in, with leggings, or with thick tights under a heavier skirt.

Sizes run US 4 through 8.5, six steps, so this is a narrower run than most and worth checking before you plan around it. A full lining takes up meaningful room inside the boot, so the half size up is the right call if you wear thick socks. The chart below gives EU and UK equivalents with the matching foot length.

• Silhouette: mid-height winter boot, heavier construction
• Lining: faux fur through the foot and shaft
• Closure: pull-on
• Toe shape: round
• Colourways: Black, Brown
• Sizes: US 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 8.5
• Care: wipe clean with a soft damp cloth and let air dry away from direct heat, do not machine wash

Foot length is measured heel to longest toe. Size up half a size if you plan to wear thick socks.
