Shoes, shoes, shoes— we can’t help but love them. So much so that if we tallied up all the pairs the Who What Wear editors own, we would most definitely need a calculator. Of course, we can get on board with a brilliant expensive-looking high street shoe find as much as the next person, but when it comes to footwear, nothing quite beats the thrill of unboxing (and slipping on) a beautifully made luxury pair.
And because shoes are one of those items that can really make an outfit, transforming it from plain to show-stopping in seconds; because you tend to wear your favourite pairs again and again over many years, we’re of the opinion that the cost per wear when investing in a designer pair you adore becomes worth it rather quickly.
Of course, it’s all about finding the perfect pair for you so that you get the most out of them. And not just the most wear, although looking out for a timeless style helps, but also the most joy. Because shoes are undeniably something that bring happiness to our Boots, whether that comes from wearing a beautiful classic like The Row’s Zip Front boots or a bold statement piece like Amina Muaddi’s mules or Jimmy Choo’s Aveline Bow heels.
So, if you’ve been considering levelling up your shoe game for a while, and want to make sure the styles you pick are going to stand the test of time as well as enhance your wardrobe (and your life), you’ll want to keep scrolling to see our edit of the all time, best designer shoes money can buy. We’ve tried to cover everything from heels you can dance the night away in, to mules that are perfect for heading back into the office with and ankle boots you can wear all year round. Don’t worry, We won’t keep you any longer…
