Shoes can make or break an outfit, taking a look from dated to modern in an instant. With spring just around the corner, it’s time to hang up your boots (literally) and step into something lighter and brighter for warmer days ahead.

Footwear that focuses on both style and comfort is nothing new to the fashion scene. That said, this season, brands are putting new spins on classic styles. You know what that means: sleek and sophisticated heels for weddings and other occasions, comfortable (but undeniably cool) flats and open-toe sandals, timeless sneakers, polished loafers and more.

Whether you’re hunting for a new pair of shoes to sport with your TikTok-approved mom jeans (and skinny jeans, if that’s still your thing) or you just want a style that’ll go with your go-to spring look, a new set of shoes is the perfect way to finish off a look and step into season in style.

To give you a leg up on the spring footwear trends that’ll be everywhere, ET Style pulled together the best shoes embodying the coolest styles for the season. Scroll down to shop our favorite spring shoes below.
