This "Newspaper-Print Ankle Boot" Is a Vintage Book Lover’s Must-Have: Wearing Poetry From Old Books on Your Feet
Who could say no to avintage ankle boot that oozes literary charm? This new gray boot with newspaper-print panels wraps the "laid-back vibe of an old bookstore" right around your toes.
I fell for the details the second I unboxed them: The distressed gray leather feels like a notebook cover softened by time, the newspaper-print panels have that retro inked texture, and even the toe’s color-blocking looks like a worn page edge. The light brown laces and metal eyelets add a touch of casual American workwear flair, while the cutout at the ankle sneaks in a hint of subtle sexiness.
The biggest surprise is thewearability: The soft leather hugs the ankle without feeling tight, the low heel stays stable even after hours of walking, and paired with cropped jeans, the boot’s newspaper print peeks out perfectly—like turning a passage from an old book into a style highlight.
I used to think vintage boots felt too bulky, but this pair nails bothliterary charmand "lightweight comfort." With a knit sweater, it’s British bookish style; with a utility skirt, it’s American retro girl energy—this one boot basically elevates your entire fall wardrobe.
(P.S. The newspaper-print details get more charming the longer you look—even friends have been asking where I got them!)
