Loro Piana’s Icer Walk boots are the epitome of luxury. Made in Italy from water-resistant and stain-resistant calf suede, they feature padded cashmere collars and cashmere linings. Though the materials are incredibly indulgent, the brand backs up the almost $2K price tag with a solid build and durable construction techniques. The boot includes a calfskin insole, a leather midsole and a rubber sole, which, in wet conditions will give you necessary grip missing with a leather sole. The style features a construction built for inclement weather known as the Storm welt, a modified Goodyear welt that creates a seal around the upper and the midsole. And while the brand offers the boot in three dark colorways, you can pick up a version in beige at Mr Porter.

If, while reading this, you found yourself asking, “Why the hell would I want a cashmere-lined boot?” this probably isn’t for you. But for the rest of you out there, check your account balance and head over to Mr Porter — there are only seven pairs left.
