You might be thinking it’s impossible to wear boots in a tropical country like the Philippines, but think again
These boots are made for walking and that’s just what they’ll do! One of these days, you can walk all over Manila in them, too. You just need the perfect boots for the tropical weather and the right outfit to match it. Although, what are the perfect pair of boots anyway?
Usually, these footwear are made for cold climates, which makes them heavier, weather resistant, and lined with something fuzzy to keep you warm. Since we’re in the Philippines, you don’t really need any of those, but you do need the sole to be wearable in hot weather. This means getting a rubber sole, combination sole, or any other lightweight sole available, so they’ll be lighter on your feet and easier for you to walk around in. Once you’ve got your boots, you’re now ready to style them.
