Men’s hiking boots are highly specific products and should not be purchased without proper research. The boots you’ll need may vary depending on your foot size and structure, your gait, the terrain on which you’ll be hiking, the climate, and the season in which you’ll be traveling. There are some general rules to follow in order to select the best brands and varieties.

1. Select the best boot means knowing your body. If you have a low arch, you will need a boot that props that arch up–or an insole–and gives you the most comfort. If you’re prone to shin splints, you’ll need extra support. If your foot is wide at the sole, you’ll need wider shoes to prevent friction against the side of your feet. The best boot for someone else does not necessarily mean it’s the best boot for you–in fact, it usually does not mean this.

2. Boots should be bought based on the terrain on which you’ll be traveling. For example, in hot and dry desert terrain, a good boot might not be a boot at all, but rather a trail runner that breathes well and offers good support. However, if you plan to do some expeditions on glacier-covered mountains, you’ll want high-top boots with strong ankle support, excellent insulation, and Gore-Tex for water protection.

Just as there is a wide array of boot styles for men, so are there numerous options for apparel that pairs well with them. Because of their versatile nature, denim jeans are least likely to clash with the boots men wear. In keeping with accessorizing guidelines that govern other dress footwear, men are advised to wear belts that match the boots they’re wearing as closely as possible
Material Matters
The fall/winter season opens up the most options for pairing clothes with boots. Corduroy is a versatile material that works well with (coordinating) boots that have heft and either squared or rounded toes. Wool fabrics also look good with boots as long as the refinement of the slacks’ material matches the dressiness of the boots.

Adding items like fine tweed jackets or cashmere sweaters can cause policies to vary; the goal is a “balanced” look. Boots should match leather or suede jackets as closely as possible. While it’s debatable whether any man should ever wear leather or suede pants, matching boots to slacks is advised.

Everything in its Place
Think thematically when choosing clothes to wear with boots. Biker boots weren’t intended to be worn with tuxedos. Hiking boots don’t fit the corporate environment. But dressy shoe-boots do add a refined flair to business suits. And cowboy boots are well-suited to casual occasions. Boots should complement the rest of an outfit, not divert unfavorable attention away from the complete look.

Denim Does the Trick
In many cases, men wear boots to appear more assertive, masculine, relaxed or self-assured. For those reasons, denim is the one fail-safe choice for boot-wearers. The stylish possibilities range from dressy boots with jeans and a blazer to funky boots with jeans and a designer T-shirt.

Raw silk is that one rare fabric that men should avoid wearing with boots of any style.

Size it Up
No matter what, a man must be sure that the legs of the pants he chooses to wear are wide enough at the cuff to fall freely over the tops of his boots. Otherwise he’ll have to deal with the unsightly annoyance of pant legs that need to be tugged down. Also, it’s important to keep proportion in mind: Boots with jutting toe boxes draw awkward attention to the silhouette of slim-legged trousers.
