The “Dune” star’s boots were crafted in leather material, stopping shortly above his ankle. Cut in a precise angular pointed design, the shoes also featured a side zipper that allowed for extra protection and stability as he filmed scenes on a motorcycle. The boots were completed by a chunky block Cuban heel that ranged between 1.5 to 2 inches in height.The “Wonka” actor teamed his stylish footwear with a brown suede motorcycle jacket that sat overtop a black t-shirt, skinny jeans and a pair of shades.

Chalamet was spotted wearing a similar pair of chelsea boots this past March in New York City while filming another set of scenes for the film. Those boots also included a thick block Cuban heel, were constructed in suede material and featured a side zipper. When not in character, Chalamet still chooses elevated boots and dress shoes for upscale events and occasions.

For a “Wonka” fan screening in December at Cineplex Cinemas Yorkdale in Toronto, Ontario, the 27-year-old chose a sleek pair of leather boots from Tom Ford, which he paired with a double-breasted suit that featured a pink, blue and green houndstooth-printed base and a deep black tone across the set’s matching blazer and trousers.

Sometimes Chalamet goes casual as well for certain occasions. That same month he was photographed for a Los Angeles Lakers game against the Boston Celtics in a pair of Nike Air Force 1 sneakers. Nike AF1s come constructed with breathable and durable mixed uppers with sleek white lace-up closures, silver hardware and a chunky shoe silhouette.
