Today is the time to share our thoughts on The Best Winter Shoes Ideas. Specifically what we are currently wearing during the cold days. 

Before we were focused in the “the fluffier the better” type of shoes but with the latest technology regarding fabrics, that concept became more or less obsolete (at least to us).

When we look for the perfect shoe, we based our search on few key points.

The first one being the comfort (this point is not negotiable) As we are mostly on our feet throughout the whole day, the cushiony feeling is a must.

The second point is material. For us, the shoe has to be built with materials that are durable, if possible, lighter in weight and even better if they are  waterproof in some way.

The third point would be the design and look of the shoe and here it is very different because of obvious reasons, despite the gender, we have different taste.

In this post we will tell you our thoughts about why these winter shoes are the ones that made it to our list and also a brief description of each pick.

In this list you will also find:

• Type of shoe & model
• Type of material

Here are our thoughts and picks of the best winter shoes 2023 edition:

MARUŠA’S WINTER SHOES

For me, comfort goes above everything else when it comes to choose new winter shoes.

I am a fan of low top shoes mainly, first because of how comfortable they usually are and second, because of my height. Being a tall woman is not very handy when comes to high heels.

I love wearing sneakers of different shapes and colours. I like breathable materials, shoes that fit well. Shoes that i can walk long distances and wear them all day long even when working.

Chelsea boots are the latest type of shoes that i adore. They are so practical, easy to put on and off and very good to wear. I could say, pure perfection.

Another great ones are higher boots. Warm, trendy, great for walking, matching with pants, skirts & dresses…amazing. A must have in my closet 🙂

With the minimalism came also the decluttering of shoes, so i decided to keep just few pieces so here are 4 of my favourite shoes:

VEJA – CAMPO SUEDE –

The Veja Campo Suede are a low cut sneaker with a minimal design. It is constructed in Suede with an Amazonian rubber logo on their side and a recycled rubber sole. Despite being the low cut design, they are quite comfortable and very warm . The colour of choice was sand and white which fit perfectly when going for a casual setup.

FILLING PIECES – KYOTO RADAR CROC PASTEL –

The Kyoto Radar Croc Pastel from Filling Pieces are a unique and luxurious looking shoes. At a first glance they may look sturdy, but once they are in your feet, these shoes are incredibly comfortable and good looking.

The “Croc effect” Leather, textile materials and a Synthetic sole are worked to perfection with these ones. A gorgeous design indeed but quite pricey.

DANIEL WINTER SHOES

Whether i am editing, cooking or going out to do the groceries, I spend 90% of my days standing up (Yes, i edit while standing up) so i really needed to have something comfortable on my feet so the following pieces meet my expectations.

These are my picks:

FILLING PIECES – MID ACE SPIN –

The Mid Ace Spin from Filling Pieces are the perfect sneaker for those who love a retro style shoe. The design is old school and minimal while being comfortable and warm. The holes are not poked all the way through so they can be worn with confidence if the weather gets cold. Premium Nappa leather and simplistic details make this retro model a must have. 

The only downside is the rather high price tag.
