Pantashoes which are also known as boot leggings/pants and shoes in one piece / “bants” (boots-pants) are making a comeback this season after failing to wow the fashion world in the 2010s. These shoes features a pair of pull on spiked stilettos and sometimes they appear like pants with shoes attached and come in thigh high or shorter version.
We have spotted these shoes in a number of runways and celebrities including Kim Kardashian & Dua Lipa wearing them. We personally are not big fans of them and the thought that comes in our minds is how do you wash them? Do you have to wash the whole lot or is there a way to separate them and how hygienic are they? We will definitely like to know and if you’re the type of person that removes shoes at the door then this trend is not for you.
But if you want to try this trend and not sure how to go about it, worry not as we have got you covered. Be inspired by these celebrities who have been rocking them.
