Combat boots are back. The former fashion staple is everywhere, eEven the fictional comedy legend Deborah Vance (Jean Smart) of HBO’s “Hacks” can’t help but comment Hannah binder’s “chimney sweep boots” when she encounters the Gen-Z comic. Binders wears the shoes the entire time they are on screen, bloody desert heat, because those boots were made for stomping.

Originally relegated to the colder months, combat boots graced the feet of some of our most popular fashion connoisseurs this spring. An early adapter for the big boot, the little dress, is “Black Widow” star Florence Pugh. The actress even posted a candid shot of her wearing Prada’s classic leather pocket-sole boots on her Instagram, with the headline: “Boots to march in. Always.”
Prada is known for good cleat soles rocked by celebrities like Bella Hadid, Kendall Jenner and Victoria Beckham as part of their on-trend utility styles. The chunky plateaus are hard to miss, especially with their signature zip-up pocket strapped around the ankle. While they come at a high price, they are well worth the price given their craftsmanship and high quality leather that will last a lifetime.
But there is no shortage of cheaper options if you’re looking for a dupe that can rival House Miuccia’s. From Doc Martens to Sam Edelman to Ganni, we’ve put together the best chunky combat boots in every price range.

The chunky Prada boots are one of the best-selling items for the luxury fashion brand. House Miuccia has always made good cleats, helping celebrities from Bella Hadid and Kendall Jenner to Victoria Beckham and now Florence Pugh perfect chic utilitarian styles. The latest iteration of the boots seen on Pugh is arguably the best yet, with its classic zipped pocket with a buckle on the side and a 2.3-inch platform heel for extra tapping. They come at a cutting-edge price tag, but the Italian leather and craftsmanship ensures they will last a lifetime – and combat boots never go out of style.
