“Winter clogs” might sound like an oxymoron, but “fashionable clogs” probably sounds like more of one. Thankfully, neither of these phrases are as contradictory as they might seem; clogs are a massive trend for fall and winter 2021 and they’re the surprising Scandinavian staple your cold-weather shoe wardrobe needs.
In fall and winter, boots work for two reasons: They protect your feet from the elements and they’re heavy enough to hold their own in an already-chunky cold-weather ensemble, whereas daintier footwear options might disappear when paired with your thickest knits and heaviest wools. Boots stand their ground and perfectly complete statement-making fall OOTDS, but I’m here to argue that clogs do the same.
And I’m not the only one! With the rise in ’70s-inspired trends all over social media, it’s no wonder influencers are looking for wooden clogs to pair with their flared denim. And with brands like Bottega Veneta launching rubber clogs and totally transforming our idea of “chic” footwear, chunky, clunky clogs are more “in” than ever before.
This unique (and unlikely) shoe staple might seem intimidating to style—but rest assured, it isn’t. Once you’ve stocked up on a go-to pair of clogs (or two), you can essentially wear them with anything. Style them with a pair of socks peeking out, throw them on with any and all denim or pair them with heavy knit tights—the options might not be endless, but they’re pretty damn close.
Ahead, you’ll find a few of the cutest pairs of clogs on the market right now. Many of this season’s clogs feature of-the-moment trends—like Western-inspired metal accents, and bold, saturated colorways in addition to the classic neutrals. Read on to discover the shoe you’ll be wearing all fall and winter. I’m calling it now!
