NEW Shoe Trends To LOVE! Winter 2025 Fashion Trends

[@princessloulou4809]

Never gave up my boat shoes, I still have 3 pairs. You hold things long enough and the trend comes right back around.

[@Thestyleinsider.]

TOTALLY!

[@sandyyoung5761]

7 y/o me wearing Clark Wallabies!! I am now 54... definitely on my list..

[@Thestyleinsider.]

Love it!!

[@qianamdavis962]

I grew up 90s so Clarks were a must. I had a pair of orange suede Wallabies I was obsessed with and wore to death

[@cathylehman7538]

I thrifted a pair of Harley Davidson biker boots a couple of years ago and they are seriously the most comfortable boot. I wear them non-stop in fall/winter/spring

[@EvelynM-vlogs]

A boat shoe over a ballet flat, mary jane or kitten heel any day of the week - especially with socks! I love that socks are in now.

[@TeaSipperEsq.]

Thank you for your suggestions Leonie. Have a great Monday everyone! ❤

[@Thestyleinsider.]

Thanks for watching and I hope you have a fab Monday too! x

[@ToriAguilera]

Ballet flats/mary Jane’s when it’s warmer, Uggs when it’s cold! This has been my style for years 😊

[@Thestyleinsider.]

Nice!

[@diannjeffries6681]

Yes to boat shoes. I need to keep it casual and comfortable.

[@KimberlyPerrotis]

Clark’s Wallabies were all we wore in high school in the 70s. I’d love to have a new pair, they were super comfy.

[@shelleysonnenberg4516]

I loved the animal print shoes! So cute and also comfortable! I plan to put some of those on my Christmas wish list!

[@simoling]

Yes on boat shoes, especially the chunky ones, I got one summer black one and one winter brown one. And as an early adopter of Uggs from Australia before it was sold to the US and made in China, I'm still a sucker for them.

[@sandykerr60s]

Except for the shoe charms, I LOVE all these trends and will wear them all when we get around to winter here in NZ.

[@cloudblueskies]

Last year I put sparkling rhinestone laces and ribbons in my trainers and had many positive compliments and I love the look. Maybe I am a trendsetter 😂😂

[@qianamdavis962]

The trendsetters are the ones with great personality that set trends without even trying. Youre just being authentic to yourself

[@lindah.8564]

I absolutely agree cloudblueskies, and can see that happening. Many people copy cool and inspiring styles and fashionable ideas they see on others, and bam, a trend is born!!! Love it😍

[@dawndouglas1127]

Leonie You did it again. Great content 👌 😊 I love a kitten heel 👠 😍

[@karolmolpus9536]

Yes! Clark Wallabies 😊 college days!

[@catherinecampbell6904]

College in the 70s, every day for walking on campus.

[@hudson5809]

Love the biker boots and kitten heels... as well as the suede... found an adorable pair of leopard kitten heel boots as well!

[@brendarico715]

❤ Great looks for Fall❤

[@Thestyleinsider.]

Yes! Thank you!

[@ashleylitebrite6971]

Yes to the wallabee boots! Love them

[@shannanberry]

I love love love walabees!!!!

[@SnookieGalore]

Love boat shoes. Staple. Classic.

[@shannanberry]

I charmed up a pair of my loafers... They came out soooo cute!!!!

[@karolmolpus9536]

Yes ballet flats or dainty driving shoe like Van Eli ❤

[@Thestyleinsider.]

Totally! Ballet flats are super cute, and those Van Eli shoes are just the best. Can't go wrong with either!

[@ceciliagranados6989]

I wore the wallabies back in High school these were the 70s! loved them❤

[@patnunziata2200]

Love a quality boat shoe! I have some in storage I will be taking out.

[@yensid4294]

Desert Boots ( Wallaby Boots to you) were big in the 70s. I like them & i like the waterproof wool or suede clogs that look like slippers. I'm a big fan of sherpa lined Merrells in the winter as indoor/ outdoor slippers.

[@Thestyleinsider.]

We also had Desert Boots in Australia but they were quite different to these Wallabees - funny! I must take a look at the Merrells - thanks for sharing x

[@juliauren1338]

❤thank you always look forward to your video s

[@lizg6084]

Great video!

[@maxinemuhammad5979]

[@Thestyleinsider.]

💯

[@traceytrotter9934]

I was born in 1960 and have recently been wanting Wallabees! So happy to hear they are available. Also love the waterproof Uggs.Thanks Leoni!

[@Thestyleinsider.]

I was born in '67 and loved mine when I was growing up. I also love the waterproof uggs! x

[@karolmolpus9536]

Thanks so much Leonie!❤❤❤

[@Thestyleinsider.]

You are so welcome

[@ΕλισαβετΣιουρουνη]

Ευχαριστούμε που μας μαθαίνεις τα μυστικά για να είμαστε πιο κομψές ❤

[@juliauren1338]

Yes I got animal print boots I love them

[@erinj1360]

Yes on boat shoes, and HECK yes on Wallabees!

[@Thestyleinsider.]

They are so appealing right?!

[@amikrenzel5788]

I really do love shoes but that said in a Colorado winter with snow right outside the door my footwear this time of year is mostly sorrels when the snow is deep. Also snowboots hiking boots. I have to take all other footwear and change when I get there.....oh forgot the skiboots I hope to be wearing soon on the slopes🎉🎉🎉

[@BeeDel-mz1sy]

I like the Wallabee boots. I always wanted a pair.

[@Thestyleinsider.]

I love the ones with the little leather lace / charm details - they look really fun!

[@shellbell8062]

Oooh the boat shoe ... it's giving retired social worker. Like you, I never say never because every time I have done, I end up coming round to it.

[@Thestyleinsider.]

LOL that's too funny but I totally get it!

[@tinathornton2089]

what do you think of the sam Edelman Maryjane Michela studded flats.? Styling ideas and would you wear them?

[@Thestyleinsider.]

I haven't seen the studded option but I love the metallic and velvet so I'm sure I'd love the studded option too and yep I'd definitely wear them.

[@mariawelling4194]

I love my boat shoes!!

[@Thestyleinsider.]

Nice! Are they new or have you been wearing them for a long time?

[@sheylacherryholmes2092]

No, but shoes for me. I don’t ever see that in the future, but I do love the fact that I can wear Rain boots actually.

[@leonaparic2089]

boat shoes are actually classics for wealthy people... I have a pair of Barbour ones and I love them, i like Wallabies, the look very easy to style

[@mercedes523]

We called them Chucka boots here in the South. (USA)

[@Thestyleinsider.]

WOW! I've never heard that name before.

[@wannabe41]

Yes! I was waiting for someone to mention that name. I’m from the Midwest and Chukka boots were very popular when I was in high school.

[@ilovelucytheboston]

I love boat shoes! They seem like a preppy classic to me

[@PaddyCardwell-ej1xh]

😂

[@barbc7211]

No to Boat Shoes but I’d wear Wallabies ❤ thank you for the video Leonie ❤️

[@Thestyleinsider.]

Fair enough Barb - thanks for watching x

[@majbrittkjaer6134]

Never thought about wallabies, don’t think I ever saw them around… but now I want a pair…

[@Thestyleinsider.]

Thanks for sharing your thoughts! I'm glad the video sparked your interest in wallabies!

[@mbh3004]

Topsiders boat shoes are so versatile, durable, and are more comfortable now owing to better cushioning IMHO than my pairs from the 80s and 90s. They go with everything and add the preppy aesthetic. I’m still wearing them.

[@emmeohohjay2749]

The wallabees (we called them “wallies”) were huge in the 90s early 2000s for us in the Bronx. I went to catholic school and they were acceptable for us to wear in blue or black suede with our uniform. Nearly everyone had them. I recently got myself a pair since I was one of the few that couldn’t get them back in the day:)

[@mother_tucker]

Clarks nomads were very similar. I wore them to school in the 80s. Treks were the next best….

[@PatriciaReaves-t2c]

I wore the Clark boots when they came out back in the day 😏😂😂

[@marieaxen645]

Thanks for your new video Leonie! I had boat shoes when I grew up but havn´t consider to use them as an adult. So right now I can´t answer your question if there will be a shoe for me. /Marie from Sweden

[@melindaferreira9879]

Oh my goodness!! I wore those Clarks boots in middle school.. I loved them! They probably were knock offs but so cool! I like boat shoes.

[@Thestyleinsider.]

But would you go there again and wear them now?

[@melindaferreira9879]

@Thestyleinsider. Yes I believe so. I like them. I'm 54.. I prefer comfort over aesthetic s at least for everyday footwear. 😊

[@jilltodd622]

Great info! Love the Chanel rain boots. Boat shoes are cool but not comfortable for me. Ballet flats and anything animal print are a definite No Way!

[@birgitpscheid6230]

Thank you, dear Leonie! For me it's going to be a quite cheap autumn / winter... 😂 Perhaps one pair of biker boots.

[@DonnaScharff]

I'm not sure that simple suede knee boots with a kitten or chucky heal are in style, but that's what I will be sporting this winter. And I do have a pair of leopard print booties as well. I have very wide feet, so no clunky styled boots (rain, moto, biker, or boat shoes do not flatter my feet).

[@staciesliwoski3444]

i love boat shoes but i personally think they are more a spring summer shoe.

[@marieoliphant8305]

I had Clark’s in high school. Just ordered another pair. I’ll never do any ballet flats or boat shoes. Ugh! I’m over my harness/biker boots. Wore enough last year.

[@Thestyleinsider.]

Fair enough too - I'll always hang on to my biker boots but won't wear them every season!

[@cadeaumbabazi]

Hello from sweden where its much snow n slippery at times can u please share boots perfect for the worst winter. Thanks

[@qianamdavis962]

Clarks and the 90s haha I have fond memories of my orange suede ones. I love the color of those green ones you're showing in the video. I stan a kelly green. I have a purse that color. Since all things 90-00s are trending not surprised that they're trending again. I'm good on those specifically. May entertain a statement color or a neutral to replace a suede sneaker but I do want a pair of fringe Mocassin slippers or boots real bad. I definitely can see the sneaker charms, chains, or laces on the suede shoes. I would definitely play around with these. This would be cool on my tall lace-up boots too. I have motorcycle boots on my list too but you can't get me to rock kitten heels lol I also will hard pass on boat shoes and those Uggs you showed at the beginning

[@lilimamo]

Great video! And I think you’re missing really comfy shoes for me: the mid block heels like the Sézane Paula Babies, Miu Miu Moiré fabric pumps and the classic Chanel bicolor ones that in my opinion, they should be in everyone’s closet 💃🏻💃🏻💃🏻 May I suggest a video on these shoes and how to wear them with trousers, skirts and colored stockings? Hugs from Spain ❤

[@Thestyleinsider.]

GREAT IDEAS! Thank you x

[@chickadddee]

Ug. No pun intended! Hate almost all of these! 🤣 The only shoes I wear are sleek sneakers (not much detail in them but they have cushion and support), small heel bootie, or low mule if it’s dry enough, or hiking shoes for…. hiking! ❤

[@ginamarie5575]

Comfort and health for me and my feet . So sneakers and running shoes …..for cold weather uggs for short periods ……some flats …..no heels really ….so painful and I’m tall as it is .

[@Thestyleinsider.]

Sounds like we're really on the same page Gina x

[@giedrebey5444]

I don’t think too many of these going on my feet 😳🤪🤣 so no uggs I wear as house shoes and they are amazing, but outside no… I live in SF so I am not investing in any new boots. I probably going to repurchase the row bare sandals, maybe some ballet flats from the row or Alaiia , and I do want mules in burgundy . Also tempted to get furry zebra open toe mules. I think would be great with white dress or black outfit, to add some edge. Question is will I wear them next year, or further 🤔 I think animal print is more style than trend🤔 Have a blessed day🙏❤️

[@Thestyleinsider.]

I love the sound of an animal print mule and yep I agree - def more of a style than a trend. They'll always look great! x

[@patjohnson6147]

I don't have a boat shoe. Closest thing I have is a suede moccasin. Hard to keep up with these trends.

[@jerene2]

Wish you shared a few pairs of shoes that are available in side width

[@Thestyleinsider.]

Sorry about that!

[@emilyevans6989]

Can’t do boat shoes. I guess we all have something we just don’t care for. I have Uggs I’ve had for years, and I have several styles and colors. There are people who just don’t like them. My collection drives one of my cousins CRAZY!

[@elaineracette6667]

I always scope out the mens/boys shoe department for small sizes. Last summer I found a pair of Sperry Topsiders on clearance. They look like a Wallabee, with a boat shoe top lace and are fur-lined like an Ugg. The best thing is that they are in a pale cream suede! I was going to use them as slippers, but now I guess I can wear them out! Lol

[@karensamuels5574]

I still wear my Wallabee boots as well as my desert boots.

[@Lissette-c5x]

II really enjoy your videos Leonie. I love my wallabies. I’ve had my leather ones for over 20 years and they still look brand new!! They’re not comfortable shoes,unless you’re young and being comfortable is not on your list. There is no cushion in the sole. Hopefully they have changed the style and added some cushion for us older folks

[@Thestyleinsider.]

Oh wow! 20 years! That's SO awesome. I'm temped to get a suede pair - thanks for sharing x

[@KimFales]

Boat shoes were popular when I was in the 7th grade, a long with ruffle collar shirts. Not sure if I want to go that far back in time 😂!

[@chippychick6261]

Imagine the charmed sneakers in a cat house 😂

[@hudson5809]

Mine would ❤that!😂

[@rb7007]

I was just looking on the Clarks website a few days ago.....and was contemplating getting a pair of Wallabees. Didn't even know they were Trendy again! 😂 I wore them in the late 80s. I also love Biker Boots. Boat Shoes could look OK, if styled right....but they're not for me.

[@Thestyleinsider.]

Funny!

[@evizoidou4638]

Where are the square toe rain boots from?

[@mikki3961]

Isn't it interesting that shoes considered "old lady" are now hot and trending? Shaking my head in wonder.

[@Catchtracyh]

Maybe old ladies will hot and trending....

[@Thestyleinsider.]

Maybe it's just the trends that appeal to this "old lady" - ME :)

[@FrancesChiuMusic]

I’ve been looking for a good pair of boat shoes the past few years, but haven’t succeed. Hopefully I can find a good pair this year. My navy colored ones with white laces, that I had in my teens “held” a lot of happy memories. 😌

[@EnitZee]

Funnily enough, although I say “ugh” to the traditional comfy UGGs, I do own a pair of UGG moccasins that look like the Clark Wallabees. I really love the look of those shoe charms, much more than bag charms. And no boat shoes for me.

[@lynnpetti3817]

Only big no was the Uggs and I love Uggs. Yes to the Clark’s, boat shoes , flats and animal print.

[@Thestyleinsider.]

Ahh you're not a fan of the silicone sole?

[@Martina-qu9vc]

I personally don't like boot shoes, nor Uggs nighter Clarks... I really love shoes of suede, I don't even find them hard to care about (there is kind of a rubber with which you can clean them very easily). I love kitten heels, but I find them very hard to wear becaus of the thin heel (I always have the sensation of falling aside), so they are nothing for me 🫤

[@barbaralamoureux2136]

Most comfortable shoe I ever wore was a desert boot

[@ceasarsaran8573]

I love Uggs.

[@saintnouveau2356]

I like the new uggs

[@donnamc81]

I think boat shoes are just a more casual loafer really there would not be much difference in the styling but the same outfit with loafers would just be a bit more dressy than that same outfit with boat shoes they're not that different to Clarks shoes either I don't think you would need all three styles in your wardrobe maybe pick two one in leather one in suede I suppose you could get a three and have a patent leather pair if you want to be extra 😂❤

[@gardenhappy4]

I basically consider "boat shoes" a sporty loafer.

[@Thestyleinsider.]

Oh yep I can see that! x

[@User-2cents]

Walabees 😂

[@Happinc]

I started wearing natural tan leather boat shoes last summer when I found some AB FAB ones in perfect condition for $au20.00 by Landrover in the OPP shop! I wear them like I wear sandals but always with an anklet to feminise if the ankles show, i actually think they will be great with added shoe charms!🧐🤪I loved the comfort & the juxtaposition of the masculine with very feminine clothes… like I do with men’s blazers over my dresses… it just works, the Clark’s wallabees will give the same vibe and they also should be great quality so worth the money to buy and keep. Totally agree with the biker boot forever investment, I invested in a pair of Harley Davidson about 15 years ago, supremely comfortable, very cool and they make so many things look deliberate & interesting & high quality. My tan western boots do the same. Here in Australia we have the super comfortable Merry People Chelsea gum boots… they come in gorgeous colours and will take you anywhere and everywhere on a cold wet day! Great job as usual Leonie! Many thanks 🙏🏽🌈💖💕💖💕💖

[@marticooper4468]

OMG I wore these Wallabee booties in navy blue when I was in 6th grade (I’m 63 now)! My mom thought they were hideous, but I wanted them bc they were so popular. My mom was right. But when you’re young, you can get away with anything. Now no ugly shoes for me: no Crocs, Uggs (my husband always calls them Fuggs) or these nostalgic Wallabees. I look younger than my age so why look like an old lady with foot problems…I’ll stick to the cuter on trend shoes. Like I said before, if you’re young & look like a model, you can get away with anything. When you’re older, these kinds of clunky shoes just look frumpy.

[@justinebarton2931]

I'm afraid I don't really like any of them! I'm 57 the same as you. I had a pair of blue suede wallabies back in the 80s when I was a teen. I wouldn't wear them now though. I do like them, but think I would feel like an 'old lady in comfort shoes!'. I can't believe the price of them these days though! The same goes for boat shoes. Again I had a pair, probably in the late 80s/ early 90s from a UK shop called 'Cable & Co' which has long gone. I must say I wore those boat shoes to death and they never got worn out. They were virtually indestructible. Some of those trainers look like they might actually be quite nice if they hadn't been spoilt with all those charms! I do quite like square toes though, especially in a boot or a loafer.

[@nina3538]

Omg I don’t understand it… but the sight of a boat shoe makes me feel unwell 🤢🤮🤮🤮😭 lol

[@Thestyleinsider.]

LOL that's funny but you're right - maybe they make us feel sea sick?!

[@daiseegray9110]

Kitten heels and biker boots, yes! Uggs and boat shoes no!

[@JinJinDoe]

Not sure about the heel length rain boot, but I had knee high rainboots and it was the opposite of comfort. It wouldn't bend and was heavy so climbing up stairs was a nightmare, plus they made the feet and leg sweat like in a sauna. Pass on that trend.

[@cherylruley9965]

No boat shoes 😂

[@robinnewton1061]

No boat 👟

[@wallybistrich3474]

I bought short rain boots in red and in dark petrol some years ago, which I don't wear in the garden but on very rainy days to go to town. They are super comfy, but I wear them only half a day. And I bought super quality knee high rain boots for gardening in Denmark, because of the weather there they offer much more choice and quality in rain boots. I don't like charms on sneakers because I think the character of sneakers doesn't match with pearls and embellishments if one is in an adult age, in my eyes it looks a bit to schoolgirlish. I also hsve no charms at my handbag, it doesn't match to my personal style. But I never say never ....

[@KimberlyPerrotis]

Boat shoes: it depends on the style, color and material. I’m not ruling boat shoes out.

[@tbell1698]

We should never compromise. No uncomfortable and non supportive shoes, ever! The damage done to feet is serious and permanent; it leads to serious bodily injuries from head to toe--not worth it.

[@mercedes523]

Sperry has always made “boat shoes”.

[@Thestyleinsider.]

I must check the out!

[@dagnolia6004]

hated the boat shoe in the late 70's....still hate them

[@sarra5206]

Then five minutes later.... The gumboot Ugg will be IN 🙄

[@Thestyleinsider.]

I'm taking that's a no too?

[@karolmolpus9536]

No boat shoes

[@Thestyleinsider.]

Fair enough too!

[@ecofriend-22]

​​I did see a pair of brown suede tapered toe boat shoes there, I'm surprised they didn't make your list 😉💫 @@Thestyleinsider.

[@kimberlyyetta2332]

Boat shoes are so stylish right now, at least for young people!

[@User-2cents]

Boats 😉

[@slporter722]

omg...Wallabee shoes! I wore them when I was about 12-13 years old. They were very popular in the early 70's. I will skip this fashion.

[@b.r.7079]

Most of these shoes are ok if you always wear pants.

[@deniseyounger6004]

Absolutely no to boat shoes! There are so many trends that are really not wearable to the average person this year I'm passing on most.

[@lidiaionica4674]

Thanks for watching!
