We can always rely on Kate Middleton to pick a timeless classic that never goes out of style. Case in point, her Penelope Chilvers Long Tassel Boots, which she has been wearing for over two decades.

She most recently wore them in her birthday celebration video whilst out and about in the British countryside, opting for her beloved Conker-coloured pair to fit her country chic style. Whilst her brown pair are still full price at £485, fans of the style can get their hands on the black pair with a huge 50% off, slashing the price to £242.

The boots are made from sustainably sourced Spanish leather, and are created in London and crafted in Europe, so they should withstand years of wear and tear. The Long Tassel Boots come in European sizes 35 up to 42, with half sizes available – although some are beginning to sell out thanks to the huge discount.

However one of the biggest advantages of the Penelope Chilvers boots is that they also come in two leg lengths, regular and tall, as well as standard and “generous” calf widths, making it easier to get a perfect fit. The boots have a slim-fitting style that are cut close to the ankle for a more feminine, flattering silhouette, which would make it tricky to get the perfect fit if you didn’t have options for different sizes.

The zip panel on the boots has a scallop trim, whilst the zip pull features a leather tassel which gives them their name. The Long Tassel Boots are also partially lined in deerskin for warmth and have a rubber tread sole which gives them great grip even when it’s icy, making these the perfect practical boots for the winter.

You can also get similar styles of boots at Duo Boots, which also offer a vast range of calf sizes. Not only do you choose your shoe size – with sizes UK2 to UK10 available – but you can also pick from calf widths spanning from 30cm to 50cm, which go up in 2-3cm increments, giving you plenty of options to get a perfect fit.

Jones the Bootmakers also have a great selection of wide calf boots, many of which are on sale at the moment with as much as £130 off. There’s everything from heeled leather boots to suede flat soled ones, so you can find a style to suit your wardrobe.

However, considering Princess Kate’s Long Tassel Boots have been her go-tos for more than 20 years it's safe to say these are an investment that will last you a lifetime. And now they have 50% off, you’ll get even more for your money.
