Claudia Winkleman’s fashion choices on The Traitors have sparked a trend among viewers looking to emulate her signature style, including her fingerless gloves and winter coats. However, fans of the show are particularly enamored with Claudia’s choice of footwear, with many turning to social media to inquire about the ankle boots she wears.
Providing insight into Claudia’s wardrobe, her stylist Sinead McKeefry disclosed that Claudia has been favoring the Doc Martens brand this season, particularly opting for the 2976 Hi Chelsea Boots, which she has been sporting frequently.
Inspired by a vintage design from the Doc Martens archives, these boots feature a unique high silhouette that Claudia has embraced in her fashion repertoire. Crafted from durable Smooth leather with distinctive yellow welt stitching, the boots offer a blend of style and durability. Additionally, they are constructed for comfort and longevity, with the upper and sole heat-sealed and stitched together.
The boots also feature elasticated gussets on both sides for easy slip-on wear, enhancing their versatility and sleek appearance when paired with various outfits like leggings, jeans, or tights.
While the boots are currently out of stock on the Doc Martens website, they are available for purchase from Schuh in Black for £180 in various sizes. For a different style, Doc Martens offers the 2976 Yellow Stitch Smooth Leather Chelsea Boots at £170, providing a more traditional look with a shorter silhouette.
Aside from Claudia, numerous customers have expressed their admiration for these boots, praising their design, comfort, and versatility. Some have noted that the boots may require a brief breaking-in period due to their sturdy leather construction.
For those seeking a more budget-friendly alternative resembling Claudia’s style, ASOS offers the ASOS DESIGN Austin chunky Chelsea boots in black for £32, capturing the essence of the Doc Martens aesthetic at a lower price point.
