Cossacks in summer – fashionable or strange? Understand fashion once and for all

No matter how many times we discuss why Western fashionistas (especially American women) wear shoes with micro shorts, this question is still interesting. And even if trends for different markets change uncritically, and fashions in Europe and, for example, Australia look quite similar, Cossacks still seem very, very unusual to us in the summer.

It looked more accurate – until recently, looks in boots and miniskirts caused a whole debate in the comments, and now on the streets of megacities, almost no one is surprised by these images. Yes, and Russian brands are quite calmly extending the life of Cossacks and transferring them from spring to summer collections.

For example, there is no doubt about Coachella: the festival’s boho aesthetic has long since taken over social media, so when once a year all the bloggers suddenly change into frills, hats and boots, no one will be surprised. But the desert is a pretty good place for cowboy style, but what about the big cities?

The sun and stuffy concrete boxes don’t seem like the ideal background for wellies – your feet will just be hot. But the thing is: there are boots specially designed for summer – they are lighter, more breathable, made of natural materials. And yes, even compared to some “deaf” sneakers, such shoes are a more suitable option.

But of course, at a temperature of +30 degrees, even such “proper” Cossacks cannot handle the heat. Therefore, it is wiser to wear them on those days when the forecast promises a cool evening wind or at least a slight frost.

Another question is what to wear with summer boots so they don’t look weird. The most obvious option is denim (a cowboy outfit after all). A great and safe option will be mini and maxi skirts, denim overalls and dresses. And if you are ready for experiments, then follow fashion influencers: mix light textures with boots – it will be cool!

It’s not just that fashionable women walk in shoes with light dresses and linen vests: the clearer the contrast between “heavy” shoes and summer clothes, the more spectacular the look. Which leads to the answer to the question we asked ourselves at the very beginning: yes, boots can be worn even in summer – it’s only important to choose the right model and the right look. And with that we figured it out!
