Steampunk fashion is heavily based on the fashions of the Victorian era, with an added element of science fiction and a post-apocalyptic world. Accessorising your Steampunk clothing is an important feature within the Steampunk community as it demonstrates uniqueness and individuality. Boots are one way of accessorising your outfit with Steampunk styles.
Steampunk Boots for Women
To fit in with the Steampunk colour scheme of monotone colours, Steampunk boots tend to be black or brown in colour. Frequently, the colour of the boots have an antique finish, this makes them look more genuine and makes your outfit look even better. A lot of the boot styles have heels and laces, but some may have buckles or other accessories. Buckles may also be in combination with laces. The boots tend to be made of leather (or leather-look), although it’s not uncommon to see suede boots. Steampunk boots are Victorian styles with many of them featuring Gothic styles such as buckles and accessories, or plating. Most commonly, women’s boots tend to come up higher than the calf, although it is not uncommon to see ones that are ankle length. Here are some of the best Steampunk boots for women:
