Dries Van Noten boots are few and specific: a slip-on biker in leather with a top buckle, a heeled square-toed boot, a heeled square-toed Chelsea and an over-the-knee in contrast leather and fabric patchwork. All are made in Italy, calf-lined, and sized EU 35 to 42. Coveti carries 4 styles, $1,570 to $2,710, and this page gives the heel height the house states and what each is for.

The four boots

The Leather biker boots in Black are the flat one, a slip-on biker with a top buckle in dark brown and black, made for the wide trousers. The Heeled leather boots in Olive are squares-toed ankle boot on a block heel; the Heeled leather Chelsea boots in Black are the same last as a Chelsea. The Patchwork leather boots in Forest are the statement, an over-the-knee in contrast leather and fabric patchwork, worn under a midi skirt.

How to wear them

The biker under the Wide pleated jeans in Indigo with the hem breaking on the shaft; the heeled boots with the wool trousers and a jacquard coat; the over-the-knee with a knee-length skirt and the Cropped cashmere cardigan in Dark Brown. A long coat over all of them.

Fit and care

True to size on EU whole sizes; the square toes give room. Wipe leather with a soft cloth, use cream sparingly, keep patent apart from dark leathers in storage, and use shoe trees. The shoe size guide has the conversion.
