Now that we are well and truly into autumn and rainy days are becoming all too frequent, there is no better time to invest in the perfect ankle boot for this time of year.  

Whether you’re after a classic pair of black boots or you prefer to make a statement, we’ve picked the best from the market.

In our search for the perfect pair of ankle boots, we considered price points, quality as well as comfort.  

Our aim was to balance both style and cost; a pair of black boots which can be worn year in year out is worth the splurge, but trends come and go, and statement boots may not be worth spending as much on. 

Read ahead to find our top picks from this season.

You can trust our independent reviews. We may earn commission from some of the retailers, but we never allow this to influence selections, which are formed from real-world testing and expert advice. This revenue helps to fund journalism across The Independent.

The verdict: Women’s ankle boots

For both style and durability, we love Kurt Geiger’s tiami boots which add personality to even the simplest outfits. If you’re after an investment boot which will see you through many winters, choose Sandro’s ankle boots with notched sole, a fashionable update to the traditional Chelsea boot.
