the slingback mule

If you're not quite ready to wrap your head around winter-ready boots, you might seriously consider Acne Studios (poised to sell out!) slingback mule, which Norway-based fashion editor Darja Barannik proves is out and out versatile. With its covered front and exposed back, this boot-like shoe is summer-to-fall worthy. Worn with tights, it can brave winter days.
