Shoes

Loafers are this Year’s Perfect Summer-to-Fall Transition Shoe

We recently took a closer look at the six types of shoes you’re going to see everywhere for fall, but today, we wanted to take a closer look at the trend that’s perfect for the in-between season that we’re currently entering. You might have noticed a lot of loafers on store shelves recently, and you’re going to want to add at least one pair of these versatile, sophisticated shoes to your closet ASAP.

Comfortable footwear, especially loafers, was a hit on the Fall 2016 runways, and the trend seems to be resonating quite well in the real world. While NYFW Spring 2017 is currently underway, we’ve noticed showgoers, editors and bloggers have been wearing loafers to plenty of the week’s events. There’s a good reason for that: loafers are practical and versatile, with a classic profile that can be turned either casual or dressy.

If you don’t own a pair, don’t fret! Shop all of our favorites to be ahead of the trend for Fall 2016!
