If you could keep only one pair of ankle boots, it would no doubt be a black pair. All that remains is to choose the right silhouette, the right heel height and the right sole for your daily life. Here are our guidelines, model by model.

Why choose black ankle boots?

Black ankle boots go with every colour in a wardrobe, from grey to camel via navy, and are worn just as well at the office as in the evening. It is the safest colour for a first pair, and the easiest to look after: all it takes is knowing how to polish leather shoes.

Within our women's boots and ankle boots, black plays the role of the neutral base: it structures a silhouette, extends the line of dark trousers and gives shape to a light dress.

Black, a colour that lengthens

Worn with black trousers or tights, a black ankle boot extends the leg with no break in colour. It is the simplest trick for slimming a silhouette, especially with a short shaft that stops just above the ankle.

Sonia, a line from the 1970s

Our Sonia ankle boot borrows its silhouette from the 1970s: a shaft close to the ankle, a very thin leather sole and a small straight heel. At the time, the fitted ankle boot went with flared trousers and midi skirts; we have kept the line, with Italian calf leather and a leather lining.

Romy, the finesse of a pointed toe

Our Romy ankle boot draws a line that is both feminine and assertive: an elegant pointed toe, a fitted shaft that highlights the ankle and a slightly angled 4 cm heel. Designed to elongate the silhouette while guaranteeing perfect everyday stability, it goes equally well with suit trousers and straight jeans as with skirts and flowing dresses. We have made it in Italian calf leather with a full leather lining, on a thin leather sole fitted with a comfort heel pad.

Which black ankle boot should you choose for your daily life?

The choice depends mostly on your days: an ankle boot with a small heel and leather sole for dressy outfits, a Chelsea boot for simplicity, a lace-up ankle boot on a studded sole for walking a lot.

Heeled black ankle boots

At 4 cm, Sonia's heel straightens the posture without tiring the foot. Its thin, discreet leather sole keeps an elegant line that goes with a pencil skirt or cigarette trousers.

Flat black ankle boots

Albane and Margaux sit on a 2.5 cm heel and a stitched rubber sole fitted with studs. It is a reassuring grip on wet cobblestones, and the stability you want for crossing the city on foot.

How to wear black ankle boots?

Black ankle boots are worn with almost anything; the most useful rule is to match their spirit to that of the outfit: slim and heeled for dressy outfits, flat and sturdy for casual ones.

At the office

For a tailored look, an elegant option is to pair Sonia with straight grey wool trousers, a white shirt and a navy blazer. The trousers brush the shaft and hint at the heel: the silhouette stays clean, without stiffness.

At the weekend

Albane or Margaux go with rolled-up raw denim jeans, a Breton top or a chunky wool jumper, and a pea coat. With a knitted dress and opaque black tights, they give a more assertive look, the opposite of twee.

How to care for black leather ankle boots?

Black leather stays beautiful with simple care: dust it, nourish it regularly and let it rest between wears. This routine naturally extends the life of a fine pair.

1. Dust the leather with a horsehair brush as soon as you get home.
2. Nourish it every two to three weeks with a black nourishing cream, which moisturises the leather and revives its colour.
3. Buff with a brush to bring back the shine, paying particular attention to the toe and the heel.
4. Let each pair rest for a day between wears, so the leather dries completely.
