Hong Kong’s infamous rainy days during summer need not dampen your style. Showcase your fashion prowess with a pair of functional rain boots that are made for slashing through puddles but designed to pair with just about any outfit you have in mind even on days when there wasn’t a cloud in the sky.
From the utilitarian Chelsea boots to the ever-classic Wellington boots, we’ve scoured the fashion scene at Harbour City to bring you the most coveted rain boots on the season so you can make a splash while staying dry and on-trend!
Short and Sweet
Hitting just above the ankle, these boots not only provide freedom of movement but also flatter your proportions by elongating the legs.
The unisex AIGLE Corlay clogs feature a slip-on style that is a go-to choice for those on the move. Simply slip on these chic clogs on rainy days, or pair them with socks on sunny days for a stylish look that ensures both comfort and protection from the elements when you’re out and about.
For an urban look, the Soft Rain natural rubber boots offer an ankle-grazing option equipped with a lightweight bi-material notched sole that complements the unique combination of leisure and city style.
Classic Mid-Calf
For a modern grunge look, opt for a pair of mid-calf boots that pair well with sleek jeans. The Betty Rain Boot by Chloé embraces the Maison’s timeless contours while nodding to the trendy lug-sole craze. The toothy rubber sole, oversized internal zip, and square toe lend an ultra-cool, edgy attitude to your weekend ensemble. With a perfect 7cm heel height, you can confidently pound the rainy streets in style.
Another mid-length option from Moncler, the Kickstream Rain Boots stand out with their drawstring design that keeps the rain out and ensures the silhouette is well-balanced without looking too clunky. The Kickstream High Rain Boots, on the other hand, maintain the same distinctive features and drawstring design as their mid-length counterparts. With their higher shaft height, these boots provide added protection and coverage in inclement weather or during your outdoor adventures.
Knee-High Elegance
Renowned for their classic appeal, knee-high wellies effortlessly create runway-worthy looks that exude timeless elegance.
Handmade in France, AIGLE’s Myrica Rubber Boots embody an equestrian-inspired look that pairs perfectly with mini skirts or any slimming bottoms. These pull-on rubber boots also feature a quick-drying lining, making them functional for puddle protection and suitable as office-appropriate footwear on a rainy day.
Conquering the wet season is no longer associated with a gloomy mood and tip-toeing at every crossroad, thanks to these stylish rubber boots that you’d happily reach for, whether it’s raining or shining.
