A Fall Wardrobe Is Incomplete Without This One Shoe Brand
Sponsor Content Created With SOREL
Is it just me, or did fall come in hot this year? The moment the season started, rainstorms made their way into NYC with no signs of stopping. The sunshine will be missed, but it feels good to break out those pieces we've been saving for the colder days. What are those items for Who What Wear editors Natalie Gray Herder, Sierra Mayhew, and Grace O'Connell Joshua? A pair of SOREL shoes. While each editor has a favorite from the brand, they all agree that no fall wardrobe is complete without SOREL. The footwear brand is known for creating cute, high-quality shoes made from durable materials, so they hold up no matter the weather: rain, shine, or snow.
Keep scrolling to shop the bold shoes (a moment for this bright orange color, please!) you can find our editors in this season. And don't forget to make your way to the brand's limited-time-only Brooklyn pop-up shop to try on the shoes and other SOREL favorites.

"Living in New York provides its own set of challenges, so I look to my shoe collection to support me through the hustle and bustle of running around this city. My current favorite pair is this heeled bootie from SOREL that adds a pop of color to every outfit I wear it with. And it is extremely comfortable. I'll be dressing it up on days when I want to wear a nice sweater and a maxi skirt and also wearing it with leggings and a hoodie when I'm on my morning coffee run. The options are limitless." — Sierra Mayhew, associate editor

"These shoes are a New Yorker's saving grace in the fall and winter. They have a bit of height to them and are water resistant, making them so easy to wear when it's raining. When styling my SOREL clogs, I knew I wanted to focus on the bright orange hue, so I dug up a sweater in a similar color that I've had for years. Since it was a rainy day for me, the obvious choice was to add a pair of jeans. To accessorize the look, I added sunglasses and some of my go-to gold jewelry to tie the whole outfit together. This is the perfect chic but low-key way to wear these clogs. I wore them to go grab dinner in the West Village and got so many compliments." — Grace O'Connell Joshua, assistant shopping editor

"Walking is my preferred mode of transportation in NYC, so comfortable footwear is nonnegotiable. (I learned that the hard way.) These platforms are perfect for protecting my pants on a rainy day, and despite their chunky look, they're incredibly lightweight. These will be my go-to boots come winter no doubt. When I'm putting together a look, comfort is always key. Incorporating trendy pieces (e.g. these cargo pants and chunky SOREL boots) with more classic items (e.g. this pinstripe blazer) is the epitome of my personal style. I'd wear this look out to dinner with friends or swap out the tank for a sweater and wear it to the office. If you're looking for more of a dressier ensemble, these boots also look great with a knit sweaterdress or maxi skirt and leather jacket." — Natalie Gray Herder, editor
