Whether you wore (or dreamt of wearing) Vivienne Westwood's Pirate boots in 1989, 1999 or 2009, everyone can agree that these shoes are iconic. And I have a strong feeling they're about to make yet another return to the spotlight.
First introduced at the beginning of the 1980s for Vivienne's seminal raggamuffin-style, pirate-inspired fashion collection (which was linked to her store at the time, World's End, and designed alongside her then-partner, Malcolm McLaren), these were an instant hit with the hippest kids of London's subcultures. They were worn with her snake-patterned leggings, thick socks, loose tunics belted at the waist and enough curio accoutrements to make Jack Sparrow majorly jealous.
