The Best Rain Boots for Spring Showers
Form and function.
Far too often a great outfit falls apart at the shoes.
Transitional weather often forces us to sacrifice style for functionality. We need lightweight, comfortable, waterproof boots to make it through the rainy months. Fortunately, brands have started to diversify their waterproof offerings making it easier to dress for spring while being prepared for changeable weather conditions.
Here are some of our picks for the best spring rain boots.
Heeled Chelsea boot, Sorel
We love this two-tone heeled take on a Chelsea boot. There’s traction on the sole and block heel making it good for walking in the rain and the snakeskin detail on the waterproof leather elevates the otherwise casual boot.
Price: $132 (on sale)
Pink chunky combat boot, Call it Spring
The Hudsyn boot from Canadian brand Call it Spring is a classic military-style boot that adds weight to a look with a soft pop of pink for spring.
Price: $95
Classic rain boot, Burberry
These classic tall rain boots feature the signature Burberry tartan and lace up details for an instantly recognizable look that’s sophisticated yet casual and versatile.
Price: $880
Slouchy rain boot, Ugg
This faux-slouchy rain boot is made with recycled materials and comes in several colours but we’re partial to the bold neon pink for spring. This limoncello yellow Chelsea boot from Ugg is a close second though.
Price: $150 (on sale)
White Chelsea boot, Aldo
White shoes can be scary because you have to care for them to keep them from looking too dirty but they’re also a great wardrobe staple because it can easily be styled with other spring colours. Plus, this is a rain boot and a Chelsea boot in one.
Price: $75 (on sale)
The original hunter green, Hunter
Tall green rain boots are classics for a reason. These boots are meant for walking through the English countryside or at least styling an outfit that looks like it was made for rambling.
Price: $220
Quilted tall boot, Amazon
These tall quilted black boots rain boots with a shiny patent leather finish on the toes look much more expensive than they are. The Amazon finds from brand Aonetiger are completely waterproof but look like a timeless black boot.

Speaking of the versatility of white boots. These lace-up canvas army boots from Coach are a gorgeous shade of cream and feature a rubber sole perfect for spring weather.
