Claudia Winkleman’s wardrobe on The Traitors is still one of our favourite things about the latest series, and there’s one item that continues to stand out – her Bottega Veneta Lug Chelsea Boot. She’s paired them with everything from leggings to pleated kilts and mini skirts on the show, showing just how versatile they are to wear. However, if the £1080 price tag is a bit steep for you, we’ve found an affordable alternative at ASOS. The Seqwl Chunky Ankle Boots in Black are a steal at £32 and bear a striking resemblance to Claudia’s designer pair.

The rounded toe and a chunky platform sole also give the ASOS pair a Bottega-inpsited look, and the soles feature a lug design that gives you extra grip – perfect for icy winter weather. While they’re made from faux leather compared to Bottega’s 100% calfskin leather, which is more robust, they’re still a great year-round option. You can wear them with bare legs and mini skirts in the summer, or thick tights and skinny jeans in the winter, so you know they’re going to work hard in your wardrobe.
