Big, black and with maxi soles: these are the chunky boots, the XXL footwear of autumn!
They are large, very faired, heavy and a little military style … and above all they are depopulating on street style! These are the chunky boots, that is, those amphibious boots with an XXL sole, perfect for days of torrential rain or simply to keep your feet warm! Here are some look ideas to combine them in a super glamorous way.
Chunky boots, here's how to wear the new autumn trend: which ones to choose
Since these are very strong footwear and focus attention on the lower part of the legs, my suggestion is to adapt them, as far as possible, to your physiognomy. So, if you have thin calves, prefer models that leave them uncovered, in order to highlight them.

Chunky boots, here's how to wear the new autumn trend: with the suit
Whether it's glitter or not, the suit goes very well with chunky boots, because they play it down perfectly. In terms of color, I would not be very selective: they are so particular, that you can practically put them with whatever you want, because the look is still a little over the top. Let me just give you one piece of advice: try not to mix the shades too much, so avoid putting more than three in your outfit.

Chunky boots, here's how to wear the new autumn trend: with the raincoat
Since they are ideal to wear when it rains, combine them with a raincoat, perhaps colored, to make the day turn in a positive way! In this case, avoid the trench coat: it is too “delicate”. Instead, opt for waxed and XXL outerwear, which add grit to your look.

The best way to wear them if your legs are your strong point! Worn with opaque tights, they are ideal with a skirt above the knee, even in patterned or tartan. Add a knitted pullover and that's it: you're ready for a glamorous guerrilla war!
