The Cozy Sneakers We Love to Wear All Winter Long
It's when the weather starts to cool down that the furry and fuzzy textures begin to appear. One of our favorite picks from these warm textures is shearling, which you can find in just about all of our editors' closets. We're talking everything from our favorite jackets and coats to our winter bags and boots. This season, however, our editors have their eyes on a pair of cozy shearling sneakers. And with the sneaker trend still going strong, this comes as no surprise. Incorporating shearling is the perfect way to be able to wear a pair of sneakers throughout the cold-weather season to stay warm without sacrificing style.
These fashion-forward sneakers can have a powerful impact on your outfits by giving dressier looks an instant cool factor all the while being able to elevate even the most casual of looks. For a more polished take on this trend, try wearing a pair with a sleek belted coat layered over a floral-print dress. If you prefer sticking to a more laid-back look, simply add shearling sneakers to your go-to chunky sweater–and-jeans mix. These kicks go great with other pieces as well like a pair of leather pants, a printed midi skirt, and leggings.
If you're interested in scoring a pair of shearling sneakers of your own, keep scrolling to shop our edit of 20 of the coolest options online at every price point. Warning: You may have a hard time picking out just one pair.
