This week, the Buro Must-Have list shines the spotlight on the Chanel Mid-Calf Boots.
There are boots, and then there are Chanel boots. If you invest in one pair of boots this season, let it be this pair by Chanel that stretches up to your calves while standing on a giant ‘CC’ marked pearl heel.
Unveiled as part of Chanel’s Fall-Winter 2025/26 Ready-to-Wear collection, the Chanel pearl boots prove that the French Maison still knows how to make accessories feel like architecture. The lambskin gives it a supple fit, while the patent calfskin adds structure and shine. Together, they create a silhouette that’s sleek but strong, balancing softness with a certain edge. Then comes the drama: the pearl heel. It’s not a trim, not a decoration, but a bold foundation, flipping the brand’s signature codes into something functional and unmistakably modern.
The Chanel mid-calf boots embody the House’s current obsession with proportion play, by exaggerating scale in the heel (turning a pearl into a structural foundation rather than a delicate accent), the design flips Chanel’s codes into something at once familiar and disruptive.
It’s a reminder of how Chanel thrives on recontextualization. Pearls have always been stitched into the DNA of the house, from Coco’s own layered strands to Karl Lagerfeld’s ornate embroideries. Here, the motif becomes something more tactile and playful, literally carrying the weight of the shoe.
