Luxury fashion house Dior introduces a new iteration of its classic B28 boot silhouette just in time for the Fall season quickly approaching around the corner. The boots are made from a [smooth calfskin material](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/unisex-leather-boot) in a deep brown hue, which is very seasonally appropriate.

The [high-top design](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/1460-leather-boot) also features a notable cut-out near the top side of the boot to allow for easy wearing. The shoe's vamp has [black rubber material and outsole](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mschf-24-boot) to add some dimension and durability to the silhouette. In terms of the branding detail, there is the "DIOR" motif found on the sole done in white to stand out in contrast to the dark foundation. It is complete with the brand's signature right at the outsole.
