Soaked socks and soggy pant cuffs are not a good look. Luckily, our Fall Boot Guide launched this week, outlining 5 kinds of boots (Wingtip, Rugged, Vintage, Chukka, and Weather-Ready) that will help you conquer windchill on workdays and ice on weekend outings to your girlfriend’s favorite Christmas tree farm—all with style points to spare.

Fall is a good time to be guy. Crisp climates call for rugged tweeds, wools, cords, and all the classic trappings of old-world menswear—and nothing complements those rich textures better than a sturdy pair of boots.

Here are 3 stellar examples of our first boot category, the tough-but-polished Wingtip Boot.

Did you know Nordstrom began as a shoe store? John W. Nordstrom came to the United States in 1887 and, after cobbling together a modest sum in the Klondike gold rush, opened Wallin & Nordstrom shoes, with friend Carl Wallin, in Seattle in 1901.

Over the years, our founder handed down his avid dedication to the customer (and hands-on knowledge of footwear) to subsequent generations of the Nordstrom family. His great-grandsons still manage the company today—and all started their careers in the shoe stockroom.

Long story short: Shoes are in our DNA. And that’s never more apparent than during our biggest event of the year, Anniversary Sale, when we bring in stellar deals on Fall shoes from wingtips to high-tops. Peruse a few of our favorites below—spotted in the Shoe Shop at our flagship store in Downtown Seattle.
