THE STYLE SOLUTION:
OUR GUIDE TO COMFORTABLE,
FASHIONABLE WORK SHOES

Finding comfortable, fashionable work shoes that don’t compromise is like playing the lottery - a whole lot of hoping, praying and ultimately, trying again next time. When you need your focus to be on your to-do list (rather than on your feet), finding comfortable, fashionable work shoes is a must, but that shouldn’t mean they look any less stylish than you want them to be. Your work shoes can change the look and feel of your whole outfit, so we’ve broken down three classic on-duty looks with our top tips on how to best mix in designs that work as comfortable, stylish work shoes.

Boots make for some of the most comfortable, style work shoes. Perfect for making an understated impact, style a soft leather boot with a pair of wide culottes or apron skirt to add an editorial, timeless feel to your trans-seasonal work wardrobe.

NEED TO KNOW

  • Super-soft leathers are key for both all-day comfort and creating a polished, professional look. Nod to your style sensibilities by playing with colour blocking - burgundy, tan, white, forest green and navy are all great choices for this - or choose a printed leather (such as snakeskin or croc) to add a dynamic twist to a classic white shirt and trouser combo.
  • For a more modern take, eschew a pointed toe in favour of a bold square - toe style. Not only is it wider (and therefore more comfortable), but the clean edges add a hard polish to timeless, tailored looks.
  • Look to seamless styles to create a more refined look (it’s better to keep things simple than have too much going on). Not only do seamless finishes ramp up the comfort factor, but the clean lines also create a luxurious, hand-crafted look (a win-win when it comes to balancing both style and practicality.
