Platform Boots

At Blue Banana, you’ll find plenty of gothic and alternative footwear to incorporate into your style. Gothic platform boots are one way to establish your goth aesthetic.

What is a platform boot?

Platform boots are ankle, knee-high or thigh-high boots with an obvious chunky sole. Gothic platform boots are often decorated with buckles, laces, chains or studs. Typically black, goth platform boots would make a great addition to your wardrobe.

Alt Brands at Blue Banana

Experiment with your style and add a pair of goth platforms to your look. Some of our favourite alternative footwear brands stock some amazing platform boots for you to try.

New Rock is a classic goth brand, specialising in quality leather footwear. Platform boots are easy to find in our New Rock section. If you’re looking for New Rock Platform Boots then check out the Tower New Rock style; made with chunky rubber soles and metal sole detailing. Another iconic style is the New Rock Space Platform style. The space style has the typical look of goth shoes with their exaggerated sole but contains large springs in the heel for support. New Rock platforms can be found in ankle boots or knee-high styles.

If you’re looking to add platform gothic boots to your look then why not opt for a pair of platform Dr Martens? If you’re already familiar with this brand then you’ll know how great a pair of these leather boots can be. Made from quality leather materials, Dr Martens use Goodyear welting along with air-cushioned soles to create a durable yet fashionable shoe. If platform boots are what you are after then choose the Jadon platform Dr Martens for a chunky-looking shoe. Jadon platform boots are complete with 8 eyelet laces and a quad sole for a thick base. These are the perfect boots for a gothic, yet understated style.

Lamoda is a pioneer of the gothic platform shoe. Whether you’re after shoes, boots or high-heels, Lamoda is a great choice for platforms. Lamoda is all about the extreme with their funky styles and elaborate designs; they really know how to go the extra mile! If high-heels are your thing then these are the ones for you. With thick heels and shark teeth soles, these platform boots will have you turning heads. Lamoda is proudly vegan and is even a PETA-registered brand. No animal products go into the making of these alternative platform boots so you don’t have to compromise on style.
