Jennifer Lopez Elevates Fall Style in $2,250 Balmain “Amazon” Thigh-High Boots

While leaving the Mandarin Oriental in New York City on October 10, 2021, Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck leaned into coordinated fall dressing with understated, practical footwear choices that still reflected their individual styles.

Affleck kept things simple in an all-black outfit built around low-profile black leather dress sneakers, a style he frequently wore throughout this period.

While his exact pair is no longer sold, comparable leather sneakers from brands such as Kenneth Cole, Common Projects, and Oliver Cabell remain easy-to-find wardrobe staples thanks to their clean silhouette and versatility.

Jennifer Lopez balanced Affleck’s understated look with rich brown textures, pairing a Gucci leather cape coat and coordinating A-line skirt with pieces that emphasized tonal dressing rather than bold contrasts.

Underneath her vintage-looking outerwear, J.Lo donned a form-fitting Wolford Colorado String turtleneck bodysuit.

Keeping the focus on the outfit, Lopez wore minimal jewelry, pulled her hair into a high ponytail, and finished the look with oversized Isabel Marant aviator sunglasses and a classic brown Chanel bag.

The standout element, however, was her footwear, which pulled the entire autumn look together.

Completing the outfit were the Balmain “Amazon” thigh-high boots, one of the French fashion house’s most recognizable statement designs from the era.

The style combines a dark brown pointed-toe leather foot with a flexible stretch-suede shaft that extends above the knee to the thigh, finished with a slim gold stiletto heel that gives the otherwise monochromatic boot a subtle metallic accent.

Originally retailing for about $2,250, the Balmain “Amazon” boots have long since sold out and are no longer available through Balmain.

As of July 2026, Farfetch continues to stock a wide selection of the house’s statement footwear—including pointed-toe leather boots, knee-high and thigh-high styles, and wedge silhouettes—typically priced between about $1,500 and $3,000, illustrating how the dramatic, architectural aesthetic that defined the “Amazon” boots remains central to Balmain’s collections.

The original “Amazon” boots now appear only occasionally on luxury resale platforms such as Vestiaire Collective, The RealReal, and eBay, where pairs generally sell for $600 to $1,200, depending on size and condition.

Jennifer Lopez’s Best Boots Go Beyond One Standout Pair

Lopez’s Balmain “Amazon” boots fit neatly into a footwear history defined by dramatic proportions, sharp silhouettes, and heels that carry the outfit. From denim-effect Versace boots to sleek Casadei and Gianvito Rossi designs, these looks show how she repeatedly uses statement boots to reshape everything from red-carpet leather to relaxed streetwear.
