The combat boot.

Of course, if lace-ups are still too conservative for you, going all out with a classic pair of combat boots is always a play. To this day, few brands do the style better than Dr. Martens, and the nostalgia for select ’90s silhouettes taking modern menswear by storm certainly doesn’t hurt. Try a pair of the shoemaker’s classic 1460 boots if you really want to wholeheartedly embrace the punk-rock spirit that first made the style a bona fide icon. And as previously stated, they work work great in the rain, too.
