Rock ’n’ roll in comfort with these brown moto-inspired boots by Cat Footwear

Kick it up this winter with a pair of moto-inspired boots, like the Payton from Cat Footwear. A well-heeled steal for stomping around in the cold, grab a pair half a size bigger than normal to fit in those comfy wool socks, letting them show while you’re at it. Paired with skinny jeans and a plaid shirt or a flowy skirt and tights, these bad boys were made for weekend brunch with the girls.

Boots, $189.99, Cat Footwear, available at catfootwear.com.
