Meghan Markle nailed her cosy winter outfits at the Invictus Games with Prince Harry, and her waterproof snow boots that are great for rainy days now have £60 off
Her appearance at the Invictus Games might have been brief, but that didn’t stop Meghan Markle from giving us some major winter outfit inspiration before she left. The Duchess of Sussex appeared alongside husband Prince Harry in Canada for the games, where she tried her hand at snow tubing alongside competitors.
To keep warm in the snowy conditions during two of her appearances, Meghan wore a full length puffer coat and a pair of her go-to Sorel Joan Of Arctic Boots, which the Duchess has been spotted wearing on several occasions. The Sorel boots were the perfect choice for the conditions, and fans who want to add a pair to their own winter wardrobes can now get them on sale, down from £195 to £136.50.

The Sorel Joan Of Arctic Boots come in three different colour options, with Meghan pairing the quarry and black pair with her white puffer coat, and a no-longer available cream pair with a cosy black quilted coat. You can get a similar camel pair reduced to £177, which are still available in sizes 3 to 5.5, whilst the quarry colourway is in stock in sizes 3 to 8, with half sizes available.
Whether you’re planning on hitting the slopes or just want something extra warm and waterproof to wear for your daily commute in the winter, Meghan’s Sorel Joan Of Arctic Boots are a great pick. They have a waterproof suede upper that’s been seam-sealed to keep your feet dry, with a faux fur cuff which helps keep the cold out and the warm in.
To maximise on their warmth, the Sorel Joan Of Arctic Boots also have a 6mm felt inner boot with sherpa pile snow cuffs, which is fully removable and washable. The midsole also has a bonded felt frost plug, with a vulcanised rubber outsole that gives you plenty of extra grip and keeps your feet warm in the frost and snow.
Sorel shoppers are also a big fan of them, giving the Joan Of Arctic Boots more than 1400 five star reviews. One wrote: “My second pair of these and I just love them! These shoes will make your days beautiful in any weather. Pure Love.”
Whilst another added: “The boots arrived very quickly, wasn’t really sure what to expect. If Meghan Markle loved them then I knew I would too… Cannot wait to wear them.”
One shopper did write: “A bit tight and heavy, they looked nice but not very comfortable, I sent them back.”
However another said: “These shoes are really beautiful, comfy (be careful it might be difficult for large feet), warm and can go with different types of clothing. You can walk easily on different types of roads (not for trail,running for sure).”
If you’re after something a little more lightweight for your winter adventures, the Columbia Women’s Minx IV Waterproof Tall Snow Boots are still available in sizes 3.5 to 7.5 for £110. They feature fully waterproof and breathable uppers, with 200g of insulation and a faux fur lining to keep your feet warm. They also have adjustable webbing to keep them secure, a cushioned midsole for added comfort and a grippy outsole for added traction in wet and snowy conditions.
