If the first thing you buy for fall each year is shoes, join the club. At this point, it feels like it’s been summer for years, and I’m counting the days until the initial signs of fall reveal themselves. In the meantime, I’ll just be over here shopping for fall shoes in anticipation of the change of seasons.
If the sound of satin ballet flats, red jazz shoes, and chocolate brown suede mules gets your attention, I have a feeling you’re going to like this edit as much as I do. I perused the just-in stock at Nordstrom, Zara, J.Crew, Net-a-Porter, Reformation, Prada, and more. The price points run the gamut, so you’re sure to find something that fits both your needs (or wants) and your budget.
Suede, animal prints, taffeta, and beads are all present and accounted for. And if I do say so myself, the 33 new fall shoes I found are too good not to sell out (with some already headed to that fate). So, without further ado, keep scrolling to shop the best new shoes of fall 2026 (so far).
I think I might like red jazz flats even more than white ones.
