Soft Suede

Suede might not be groundbreaking for fall, but it’s a go-to autumnal textile for a reason. It’s soft, cozy, and adds an eye-catching pop of texture that can really tie an outfit together. “Leather and canvas will always hold a special place in our hearts for sneakers, but for the fall, we’re seeing the softness of suede for our sneakers, especially,” Paron says.
López agrees: “Over the past couple of years, we’ve seen the color trend transition from black to browns, navies, and lighter hues—so suede is the natural fit for the trending color palette,” she explains.
Other colors to consider for fall 2025? Teal, cranberry, and chartreuse. They’re rich and moody, and beautifully done in suede—especially when you pair your kicks with a coordinating handbag.
