1. Hanifa Zoe Boot ($600, hanifa.co)

Since Hanifa’s 2012 debut, the brand has become a staple in the fashion industry. After gaining approval from Beyoncé, Hanifa’s founder, Anifa Mvuemba, took the brand in a new direction. In 2021, Hanifa launched a footwear line with two shoe styles and quickly added boots.

Hanifa provides a new take on the “scrunchy boot” with their Zoe Boot. The footwear features a sheep leather-wrapped strap that provides a familiar feel with an elevated touch. Following the blueprint of their Zoe Mules, the boots can keep you warm during nights out on the town. The offering is also available in black and white. 

2. Hanifa Zorah Boot ($400, hanifa.co)
