For fully formal outfits, don’t be afraid to pair boots with suits. Look to pair dark leather boots with a navy suit for a timeless and striking look. Similarly, you can match black Chelsea boots with slim fitting grey or black suits for a sleek and classic aesthetic.

Aside from suits, Chelsea boots can add that final bit of smartness to a simple trousers, shirt and coat combination. Combine brown Chelsea’s with blue denim and a crisp oxford shirt for a smart yet casual look in a more relaxed office. Match those with a brown belt and you’re set. Chinos of all colours can be matched with Chelsea boots and combined with a blazer for a non-suited, still smart option.
