Lace-Up Shoes Should Be Your New Spring Obsession

March 16, 2022

Sneakers, both the grandpa and athletic varieties, have seen a surge in popularity lately. But trainers aren’t the only laced footwear gaining traction. Lace-up pumps and sandals have recently become street style staples. See Paris Fashion Week Fall 2022. (Actually, lace-up clothing also proved popular.) Thankfully, lace-up shoes are perfect for spring. Not to mention summer. Your mind may immediately jump to gladiator sandals or just sandals in general. But there’s way more to this striking silhouette. Ankle tie pumps, ballet-style flats and even huaraches are all fashionable possibilities. Plus, they are ideal for those spring days when it’s not quite warm. The season doesn’t always begin on the right foot. At least weather-wise. When it comes to colors, you can definitely go the pastel route. Although we encourage you to also embrace primary colors. Don’t forget about neutrals, either. Patterned footwear can also up the ante on any outfit. The only downside? Whether you slip on sandals or pumps, they’ll require setting aside extra time to wrap them up. But it’s totally worth getting ready a little earlier just to flaunt these babies. Here are the 14 best lace-up shoes for every budget that will have you stepping out in style for spring.
