As the summer of 2025 wraps up, I have my sights set on fall shoes—one of the first things I shop for as the season approaches each year. And here's a tip: If you want to know what the It shoes (or just shoe trends in general) will be for an approaching season, all you really need to do is take a look at The Row's new arrivals. If The Row is making a version of a style, you can guarantee it's about to be everywhere. And for F/W 25, one of those is the flat slipper mule trend.
The specific shoes I'm referring to are The Row's Hudson Slides, and the shearling-lined version of the suede slippers is currently available for preorder for delivery in October. The shoes will set you back $1460, which I'm sure most fans of The Row would argue is worth it, given the quality. (For reference, the non-shearling-lined Hudson Slides are just a tad easier on the wallet at $1020.)
If you're a fan of the shearling-lined version of the slipper mule trend but not the price point of The Row's pair, the good news is that there are alternatives, and the one I have my eye on is Ugg's Elea Slip-Ons. The Ugg flats are available in chocolate brown, chestnut, olive green, black, and butter yellow, and come in at $120. How I'm going to decide which color to order is the only question.
Keep scrolling to shop The Row's Hudson Slides and the Ugg Elea Slip-Ons before both inevitably sell out across the board.
