Boot Spats

Our boot spats recreate the look of a 1920s buttoned boot over the dress shoes you already own. Each pair closes with four dark metal snaps along the outer side and a strap with a metal buckle that runs under the sole, so the spats stay put while you walk or dance. Every color of our spats is gathered on this page.

Smooth or Suede-Look: Two Finishes of Boot Spats

White and one of the black options are smooth faux leather with a slight sheen, the classic 1920s partner for black shoes. The other colors have a matte faux suede-look surface that reads softer: black, slate gray, chocolate brown, mustard, red, green and royal blue. Smooth wipes clean; suede-look prefers a dry brush.

Choosing a Color of Spats for Your Outfit

White over black shoes is the gangster classic. Smooth black suits a tuxedo, and suede-look black is the subtle everyday option. Slate gray and chocolate brown go with gray and brown suits, mustard stands out at a swing dance, and red, green and royal blue belong to stage costumes and themed parties. White comes in size L only.

Boot Spats FAQ

What are spats shoes?

Usually spats worn over shoes, not shoes themselves. Ours are covers only: your own oxfords go underneath.

Which size should I pick?

Spats come in M and L, with an adjustable strap under the foot. Choose L for larger feet or a wide, chunky shoe, and M for slimmer dress shoes.

How do I put them on?

Shoes on first, snaps on the outside, strap buckled under the arch, then close the snaps from the bottom up.
