Unlock Unstoppable Fall Style: 12 Suede Sneakers That Crush Ordinary Looks and Boost Your Confidence Instantly

Vans Old Skools are great—comfortable, cheap, and timeless. We love the all white canvas for the summer, and this suede version might be our new favorite for fall. They have the same low-top shape and look, but the dark brownish gray suede elevates them.

There was a time where “blue suede sneakers” might have caused me physical pain to hear. But I didn’t know about these. These low-key Vejas are super minimal in their shape, a welcome antidote to too-chunky sneakers. The rubber sole and stoney blue upper make for a very cool sneaker.

I don’t think you should have to lace your shoes at any point, and a slip-on sneaker makes that simple dream a reality. Greats’ signature Royale 2.0 sneaker—often in leather and with laces—gets a little fall-adjacent makeover with a beige slip-on style.

You don’t have to let go of all your white sneakers as we move from summer to fall clothing. Swapping canvas for a softer suede and leather, and stark white for a more muted ecru is an easy transition. Wear these with jeans and jewel-toned sweaters.

Perhaps no comfier sneaker exists, we think, than the New Balance 990, and they just happen to almost always be a suede sneaker. How convenient for us! They are thicker sneakers with wide basis and excellent construction. While the all gray is classic, these navy ones are a nice change.

If you’re gonna get a solid pair of suede sneakers in multiple colors, go with these low-top ones from Cariuma. You can’t go wrong with this classic camel suede sneaker with a brown platform, but if you want something that’ll pop a bit more, the purple and rose red suede options are surprisingly handsome and give off a retro feel.

For fall, winter, and any other time you’re putting your precious footwear near possibly inclement weather, some weather-proof shoes come in handy. Aquatalia’s sneakers are made with water-resistant suede (also available in leather), which we won’t be puddle jumping in but we also won’t feel sick if we get caught in the rain by surprise. They are low-key, comfortable, and very good for fall.

Autry’s Reelwine runners are everything great about a fall sneaker: the right fabric in the right color, high-quality materials, and a comfortable, cushioned feel. They keep nicer outfits looking sharp and casual outfits (hoodies, mostly) looking purposefully undone.

If you’re looking around at stylish sneakered feet, there’s a high chance you’re seeing them in navy, forest green, and brown right now. While each color is a wise choice, a super dark navy Spezial has got to be one of the easiest sneakers to style. A no-brainer.

If you’re looking to get one sneaker to get this fall, I think the Saucony Grid Jazz 9 is the best bet for most foot and style types. These are a supportive, comfy runner shape with suede and mesh paneling on the upper—just enough to make it feel fully suede while still breathable. They are comfortable and cool.

I have always wondered why Nike hasn’t made more Monarch colorways. Even though pair does not exactly answer that question, I’m happy to see them anyway. These are perhaps Nike’s greatest walking shoes, finally done up in a cool suede upper that looks almost nothing like its leather counterpart. Excellent for walking and gentle on aching feet.

These Omni sneakers come in a few very good fall colors—dark brown, light brown, gray, and beige. We’re suckers for brown suede, though, and these are just a beautiful pair of sneakers. Thick, vulcanized rubber soles on the bottom and a cool contrast stitch on the upper.
