Point shoes and boots are back in a big way

Winkle-picker boots (and shoes) are making an overdue return.

Banish all images of court jester-esque loafers and banana-toed, lace-ups from your mind, these spiky suckers are heavy-soled, loaded with attitude and designed to be worn with sharply cut suits and separates.

Overhauled by the likes of Berluti and Saint Laurent Paris, this season’s new wave of winkle-picker boots are sexed up to the max. Still not convinced?
