How to Style the Abril Boots: Minimalism with Character
Nae Vegan Shoes🖤 How to Style the Abril Boots: Minimalism with Character
Some shoes complete a look — others define it.
The Abril Vegan Boots are that kind of piece: timeless, genderless, and designed to balance strength with simplicity. Handcrafted in Portugal with 100% vegan materials, Abril embodies everything NAE stands for — minimalism, craftsmanship, and ethics in motion.
At NAE Vegan Shoes, we create footwear that reflects our values. Abril is made without leather, wool, or any animal-derived material — yet it carries the same durability and texture you’d expect from traditional craftsmanship. Because elegance should never come at the cost of exploitation.
The Abril boots are our modern take on the classic Chelsea silhouette — sleek, unisex, easy to wear, and built to last. Their clean lines and flexible structure make them a foundation for any conscious wardrobe. Whether styled for everyday wear or a polished urban look, Abril adapts — to every outfit, every identity, and every season.
🧭 The Story Behind the Abril Vegan Boots
“Abril” means April in Portuguese — the month of renewal, balance, and subtle strength. These boots were designed with that same philosophy: soft tones, organic shapes, and a quiet presence that grows stronger with time.
Each pair is handmade in Portugal, where generations of shoemakers have perfected their craft. We work exclusively with factories that share our ethical standards — fair wages, safe conditions, and respect for people and planet.
The result is a boot that feels both familiar and fresh: a Chelsea reinvented for modern living. Abril is proof that vegan design can be timeless, versatile, and deeply stylish.
🖤 How to Style Abril Boots
1️⃣ The Monochrome Statement
For when simplicity says it all.
Minimalism isn’t about having less — it’s about having what matters. The Monochrome Statement look brings that idea to life through balance, precision, and restraint.
Pair your Abril Vegan Boots with black or ecru trousers made from organic cotton or linen (instead of wool — always vegan!). Choose slightly structured or wide-leg cuts that let the boot’s clean silhouette stand out.
On top, go with a black turtleneck, oversized blazer, or long trench for an architectural feel. Keep your tones consistent — monochrome styling elongates your silhouette and highlights Abril’s elegant contrast stitching.
To accessorize, add a minimalist silver ring or crossbody vegan leather bag. The key is balance: neutral colors, refined textures, and simple shapes that draw attention to the craftsmanship of the boots.
And don’t forget comfort — pair them with our NAE organic cotton socks for a soft, breathable layer that matches your values.
✨ This look is pure confidence: structured, genderless, and effortlessly modern.
2️⃣ The Warm Minimalist
For when you want comfort to feel sophisticated.
If the first look is about strength, the Warm Minimalist is about softness. This outfit embraces natural tones and relaxed silhouettes — perfect for weekend coffee runs, creative workdays, or travel.
Start with cream or beige trousers in linen or cotton. Their texture complements Abril’s smooth vegan leather perfectly. Add a loose knit sweater or boxy shirt in earthy hues — caramel, rust, moss, or off-white.
Layer with a light shacket or short coat in a neutral tone for cooler days. Abril’s neutral black tone will ground the look, giving a sense of calm and quiet strength.
Don't forget to clean it — the best option is our Vegan Shoe Care Kit — it’s the simplest way to keep your Abril boots looking new while extending their life.
✨ This is conscious comfort — effortless, warm, and always kind.
