This is exactly what I want from Sorel—a boot that can handle actual weather but doesn't look like a weather boot.
The Sorel Daystorm Chelsea Waterproof Boot takes the practicality Sorel does so well and puts it into a clean, modern Chelsea silhouette.
I love this color because it feels softer and more interesting than basic black, while still working as an everyday neutral. It's the boot you grab when the forecast is questionable but you still want your outfit to look pulled together.
WHY I LOVE IT
Waterproof construction for real-life weather
Modern Chelsea boot silhouette
A great alternative to basic black
Easy pull-on-and-go style
Practical without looking overly outdoorsy
Great with denim, leggings + casual dresses
Exactly what Sorel does best—function + fashion
DEAR LUCY EDIT
YOUR RAIN BOOT DOESN'T HAVE TO LOOK LIKE A RAIN BOOT. 🌧️
I'd make this part of the outfit instead of saving it for bad weather.
Cropped straight-leg denim + chunky sweater + oversized jacket. Or leggings + a great sock + long wool coat once the temperatures drop.
It's practical enough for wet days, but cool enough that you won't be checking the forecast before you wear it.
WATERPROOF. WEARABLE. WAY COOLER THAN A RAIN BOOT. ✓
