The Ultimate Guide to Pairing Shoes With Jeans
Denim is our go-to for good reason. Say it with us: Jeans. Go. With. Everything. But with plenty of styling options comes plenty of decisions to be made. The most common: what shoes go best with every pair of jeans. So, we’ve consulted the experts (AKA our styling team) and they’re dishing the details on the best shoes to wear with all your favourite jeans.
THE STRAIGHT
For daytime plans, keep things effortless with a pair of faux-leather mules. They’re easy to slip on, look instantly put-together and work just as well for coffee runs as they do for weekend plans. Heading out after dark? Swap your flats for statement ankle boots. An animal-print pair adds a little personality to your denim, taking a classic straight-leg silhouette from laid-back to standout with minimal effort.

THE RELAXED FLARE
A wider hem calls for footwear that complements the silhouette. Enter toe-cap ballet flats: a chic, understated pairing that lets just the right amount of shoe peek out beneath your jeans. Prefer something with a little more impact? Animal-print kitten heels bring a playful edge to the retro-inspired shape, with a hint of height to finish the look.

THE BARREL
Our styling team’s tip? Keep it simple. With their curved shape and sculptural silhouette, barrel jeans are already a statement in themselves. Black loafers bring a polished finish, while heeled boots add definition and height.
