Loafers are a timeless classic, but they still follow trends. Chunky lug-sole styles, supermodel-favorite smoking loafers, and classic driving loafers have all had their turn in the spotlight. This fall, the must-have loafer is the suede version—effortlessly chic no matter how you wear it.

The trend started last year when designers like Prada, Carven, Altuzarra, and Staud brought suede from the saloon to the runway. Since then, it’s become a fashion favorite, from subtle accents to full suede looks.

Suede loafers are one of the easiest ways to embrace the trend this season and beyond. Classic black options, like Gucci’s Gigi style, are a wardrobe essential, while rich browns from Khaite, Emme Parsons, and Saint Laurent offer a versatile neutral. These pair perfectly with any chic city outfit, adding understated polish.

For a pop of color, cherry-red suede loafers from M.Gemi can brighten up winter wardrobes—bold red remains a top choice. Sleek, tassel-free styles from Prada and Miu Miu are set to be fall favorites for a more refined look. If you prefer driving loafers, popular options come from Tod’s, Tory Burch, and Vince. As they say—if the loafer fits, buy them all!
