12 On-Sale Designer Combat Boots That Are Better Than Docs

Lug sole boots are cropping up as one of the biggest trends of the season (trust us, we asked the experts), but instead of reaching for classic Doc Martens or actual workwear brands, we're more inclined to buy designer duds. Those cult-worthy Bottega Veneta boots are still sold out everywhere, but we found some equally great options to sub-in for winter. From Valentino to The Row to Simon Miller, here are 12 pairs of combat boots that happen to be on major discount, courtesy of Net-A-Porter's massive sale. We know that it's the season of giving, but tell yourself that these shoes are practical and fifty percent off. You deserve it.
