Colder weather means that broader shoes are needed to tread through the snow, and the footwear in the Lacoste Essential Design F/W 2012 collection has the right idea.
Thick leather uppers are paired with sturdy brown and white laces. The cream rippled soles on the Rydal boot are stylish and effectively functional. They resemble the structure of a mountain boot with the exception of being practical for everyday wear. The soles help to grip onto surfaces so that you are less likely to embarrass yourself while walking in the snow. The Heldon sneakers are low and don’t provide much coverage for your ankles, but are a good choice for earlier winter weather. It has the same hiker-esque bronze lace loops as its predecessor.
The Lacoste Essential Design F/W 2012 are minimalist in design, which makes them lavish winter footwear that will keep you looking good while combating the cold.
