As a juxtaposition to the comfy wedges, sandals, and sneakers we typically see for spring, biker boots instantly add an edgy twist to traditionally feminine looks. We’ve seen them on the runway at Miu Miu, with the brand’s iteration becoming a street style favorite — though they cost a pretty penny. Luckily, we’ve found a similar version by Steve Madden on sale for under $200 that serve up the biker boot footwear trend for a fraction of the cost.
Steve Madden offers its Brock Boots in three neutral colorways (brown, black and on-trend burgundy) with subtle distressing and bold buckle details. With over 3.4 million views on TikTok, these boots are viral, with users commenting that they’re the “boots of [their] dreams.” A pull-on style crafted in genuine leather, these women’s boots are perfect for the transitional weather, paired with summer dresses or cut-offs and a vintage band tee for a model-off-duty look. Because of their popularity, Steve Madden’s Brock Boots are often sold out — reviewers call them “gorgeous,” also noting that they have a comfortable fit.
Initially popular in the early 2000s with the fashion set, modern biker boots have made a comeback, with Miu Miu kicking off the trend during its fall 2022 show (more recently, we’ve seen biker boots on Loewe’s runway in a shade of red). Often with heavy buckled hardware and typically lug-soled, motorcycle boots deliver utilitarian style that toughens up any look. Celebs are on board, too: 2000s ‘It’ girl Sienna Miller was recently spotted in biker boots, looking every bit as cool pairing hers with a shearling jacket and white pants. Dua Lipa and Elsa Hosk are just two more notable names who’ve been seen in moto boots — suffice to say that the trend is back in full force.
Watch on FN
The Brock boots are rarely on sale — let alone in stock! — so don’t hesitate to add these to your cart, stat.
