HOW TO STYLE BIRKENSTOCK BOSTON CLOGS

WITH JEANS AND A TEE 

Boston clogs instantly elevate a classic jeans-and-tee combo, and as you’ll see throughout this article, they pair effortlessly with denim in almost any shape or shade. The Boston in Mink looks especially eye-catching with bold blue denim and a crisp, white-as-can-be tee. Just add sunnies and your favourite handbag, and your spring look is complete.

WITH SKINNY JEANS AND A BLAZER

To let your clogs really stand out, wear them with cropped skinny jeans – this draws attention to their iconic silhouette and shows off the details. For a chic off-duty look, style with a crop top and layer with an oversized blazer to play with proportions. Or swap your crop for a fitted tee to create a work-ready outfit that nails the smart-casual dress code.

WITH BAGGY JEANS 

Boston clogs are made for comfy, slouchy, laid-back looks. Try wearing them with floor-grazing baggy jeans, a colourful or patterned crop top, and a loose, oversized cardi for the ultimate boho look – perfect for weekends and festivals alike. 

WITH WIDE-LEGGED TROUSERS AND A WAISTCOAT

The beauty of the Boston is that it can be styled up or down with ease. For a chic evening look, pair your clogs with wide-leg trousers and a tailored waistcoat. If you own platform clogs – even better! Finish the outfit with a skinny belt and a structured handbag for a polished, put-together feel.

WITH FLOATY SUMMER TROUSERS 

Floaty summer trousers are a match made in heaven for laid-back suede Bostons. Whether they’re floor-skimming or cropped, floaty trousers echo the relaxed, boho vibe that Boston clogs naturally lend to an outfit. Style with a tucked-in tee and a cross-body bag for an easy, effortlessly chic summer look.

WITH A PINAFORE DRESS 

Channel a cute, French-inspired look with a pinafore dress layered over a loose-fitting blouse. Add a floppy summer hat and an oversized leather bag for that effortlessly chic, Parisian-in-the-countryside aesthetic – perfectly finished off with a pair of suede Boston clogs. 

WITH LEGGINGS 

Your Bostons are the perfect slip-on-and-go shoes, ideal for post-yoga brunch and lazy Sundays. Wear them with leggings and a cosy sweatshirt or longline cardigan for an effortlessly laid-back look, and finish with a cap and a roomy tote bag for the best in practical athleisure.

WITH SOCKS 

Don’t be afraid to wear your Bostons with socks! Ribbed, patterned or knitted, the right pair of socks adds personality and makes your clogs wearable year-round. Go for tonal shades for a classic, refined look, or contrast colours to make a statement.

WITH TAILORED SHORTS 

For a sophisticated summer look – whether for the office, a date night or a weekend lunch – wear your Bostons with tailored shorts that finish just above the knee. Complete the look with a chic tucked-in top and an elegant handbag.

WITH DENIM SHORTS 

For a relaxed but stylish summer look, pair your Bostons with denim shorts and a simple vest top, and pull on a loose-fitting linen shirt. Add a belt, some classic sunnies and a straw bag for a laid-back outfit that feels effortlessly pulled together. Feeling boho? Elevate the look with the addition of a silky bandana! 

WITH BRIGHT COLOURS 

Bostons in muted colourways – think Taupe, Black and Habana – contrast beautifully with bright, saturated hues. Pair them with colourful trousers and balance it out with a neutral blouse or knit. Feeling bold? Lean into it with a vibrant top half for a confident, colour-rich look.

WITH SMART NEUTRALS 

For an effortlessly refined look, try tonal styling in complementary shades of brown and beige. Boston clogs come in a wide range of natural colourways and blend beautifully into a neutral palette. You can do the same with shades of grey and black too!

IN WINTER 

Want to wear your Bostons in winter too? Just add a pair of socks or tights – or opt for a Shearling-lined style for even more warmth. Layer up with a chunky knit, a long coat and your trusty jeans or a pair of wool trousers for a cosy yet sophisticated look.

TO WORK 

Make your favourite Bostons workwear-appropriate by styling them with tailored trousers, a blouse and a structured blazer. Or for something a little different, try a sweater vest layered over a long-sleeved top for a modern twist. Opt for a pair of leather clogs for extra polish.

FOR MEN 

Many of the style tips so far apply to men too, but we love this effortlessly cool take. Black Bostons paired with black jeans and a white tee create a clean, classic base – made even better with white socks for contrast. Throw on a slouchy cardigan to pull the whole look together with a relaxed, understated finish. 

We love the example of tonal styling too – with an urban twist. Style men’s suede clogs with cargo trousers, an untucked shirt and a padded gilet – all in tonal shades. Top it off with a cap for an easy streetwear look.
