The One Flat-Shoe Trend Gigi and Hailey Wear Every December
Practical and stylish, the black lug-sole loafer is officially back in action. Celebs have been spotted in NYC and L.A. wearing the trend, despite the difference in winter weather, and we're taking note.
The easy-to-wear footwear goes with everything from dressy pants to distressed denim. It also looks particularly polished when worn with a matching black leather jacket as seen below on Gigi Hadid and Hailey Bieber. Keep your outfit simple, or look for metal embellishes in silver or gold tones to mirror in coordinated accessories.
Keep scrolling to see Hadid's and Bieber's takes on the seasonal flat-shoe trend. Plus shop 12 pairs of chunky black lug-sole loafers before the end of the year. Many of our favorite styles are on sale, so add them to your wish list (or shopping cart) ASAP before they sell out.
