Winter shoes (not boots) that are as comfortable as trainers (but not trainers)

[VelvetVoice]

And that I can wear with socks

Any ideas? Not as heavy as boots and not as casual as trainers but comfortable

Watching with interest !

Sorry no words of wisdom from me, watching in the hope that you get some useful replies!

I'm wearing long brown boots from Dune because I'm absolutely done with trainers ( boxed up my AF1s, /superstars/ vans etc) and now it's autumn and time to embrace new footwear and long boots make my legs look longer

Allbirds Mizzles ?

Have you tried loafers. They're flat

OP said no boots though. 😞

Soz. It's a hard shoe to find. Cinderella in reverse 😎

Something like these? Complete bargain!

Are you wearing dresses or trousers/jeans?

How about loafers or oxfords. I'm partial to the new chunky Clarks wallabees, but wouldn't wear them with a dress.

Ive got an older version of these - they were called high top trainers ( when I bought them)
and they are perfect

I wear loafers to work

Some wallabees?

Clarks/ ASOS have them in various colours

Brogues

This thread reminds me why I usually go from sandals to boots and back again, missing out shoes - they are impossible

they look like trainers

I never see loafers styled with socks? I need socks!

Yeah, Clarks also has something similar atm but I'm not sure about the laces and the soles seem uncomfortable. Do you have a pair?

Trousers, for dresses I can wear boots - I saw the wallabee ones but still undecided...are they comfortable?

thanks but these are trainers

Hi - no I don't but I quite like them!

I have brogues and loafers but I don't wear socks with them. I'm heading straight to boots soon I think.

I have a pair similar to these but reckon they're a bit to trainer-y...

Is this not DMs?

Loafers? Brogues?

Doc marten brogues

I have these from Russell & Bromley for that exact purpose. Mine are the ones with while soles but black also nice.

Do these look like trainers? I love the colour but don't love the sole but can live with it...

@chalkyc2 what is the sizing like? I’m a 6 but they have either a 5.5-6 or a 6.5. I’m thinking one will be too small and one too big. Tia
