This Is the Luxe Fall Shoe Trend Every Fashion Person Is Already Wearing on Repeat
Count these inspo pics as proof.
All my favorite fall 2025 outfits have one thing in common: suede shoes. Flats, loafers, clogs, knee-high boots, sneakers, you name it—if it's suede, chances are I’ve saved it. Know you have good taste if this suede shoe trend hasn’t come as a surprise. Well, to be honest, fashion insiders haven’t exactly kept this suede shoe trend a secret.
Suede ballet flats made their entrance earlier this year, while knee-high brown suede boots are finally getting the traction they deserve as a standout fall 2025 boot trend. Suede sneakers hold their rank as one of the best fall 2025 sneaker trends, and IMO, are a chicer alternative to the predictable leather or canvas trainers.
The soft suede finish has been an It-girl favorite outside of footwear. From the best suede jackets to unexpected fall 2025 staples like pencil skirts and slouchy totes, suede has become one of the coolest, most desirable fall buys of the season. Doesn’t matter if it's luxury pieces or chic, affordable suede finds—this fall-favorite is a must-have for any capsule wardrobe.
Below, shop the best of the suede shoe trend. I'm talking chic Suede Kitten Heel Boots from Zara, the classic Birkenstock Boston Clogs, preppy J.Crew Driving Loafers, brown Puma Speedcats, and more. You'll find outfit inspo as you scroll through for the best way to style the suede footwear.
