8 Best Shoes To Wear With Leather Pants (For Cool Outfits)
If you have a pair of leather pants just waiting to be shown off, we got you! Here’s a style guide on what shoes to wear with faux leather pants for your next outfit idea.
We’re firm believers that every person should have at least one pair of faux leather pants in their wardrobe. The leather look has always been present in fashion trends, whether it’s in the form of jackets, shirts, footwear, or bags.
Plus, faux leather is such a great way to give your overall outfit an edgy look. In today’s post, we’ll talk about leather pants and the best shoes to wear them with, ranging from casual style to dressy.
Since real leather trousers are much warmer, unkind to animals, and very expensive, the next best thing to go for is faux leather pants. Plus, most fashion retailers and brands are shifting to Polyurethane (PU) leather in a bid to be more ethical and sustainable.
Leather pants are a great addition to any wardrobe but they can be a tricky piece to style. They can easily go from looking chic and stylish to looking like you’re trying too hard. The key to styling leather pants is to find the right shoes to wear with them.
In this article, we will discuss the best shoes to wear with leather pants and show you how to style them in a way that looks effortlessly chic!
The Best Shoes To Wear With Leather Pants
1. Ankle Boots
Who could resist a good pair of ankle boots? Leather pants are already edgy on their own, and so are ankle boots – what a perfect match! They also help to elongate the leg, which is always a plus.
If you want to mix and match different textures, you can totally wear suede boots with leather pants for visual interest. But if you don’t have a pair of suede boots – no worries! You can also wear black leather ankle boots if you already have them. This also works for different colors and textures.
Pairing ankle boots with leather pants can create a stylish and chic look that is perfect for any occasion. Choose a pair of neutral-colored ankle boots so they don’t compete with your pants. Black, brown, and grey are all great options.
Pro tip: go for pointed toe or squared toe leather boots for an extra fashionable look.
2. Pointed Toe Pumps
Pumps add a touch of elegance to an edgy outfit. They are a bit more dressy than ankle boots, so they are perfect for a night out or a special occasion, especially if you have a hot date coming right up.
If you want to add a touch of femininity to your outfit, go for a pair of pointed toe pumps along with your high waist black leather pants. You can even go for an all black outfit by layering up with a sleek black blazer.
When wearing pointed toe pumps with leather pants, it is important to keep the rest of your outfit fairly simple. You don’t want to look like you’re trying too hard. Opt for a neutral color pump so it doesn’t compete with your pants. Black and nude are great!
3. Stiletto Heels
Stiletto heels are one of the best ways to dress up your leather pants. They are sultry and glamorous, and they will definitely turn heads! If you want to go for a chic night-out look, go for a pair of stiletto heels. Just be sure that you can walk in them before you leave the house!
Opt for skinny leather pants or or a pair of faux leather leggings so that your ankles appear slimmer and your legs look longer. Alternatively, you can also go for a wide-leg fit if that’s more your style! What matters most is that you feel comfortable.
4. Block Heels
Block heels are a great option if you want to be able to walk in your high heeled shoes! They are also much more comfortable than stiletto heels, so they are perfect for a night out on the town. If you want to add a touch of glam to your outfit, go for a pair of strappy heels.
To finish off this look, opt for a pair of leather pants with a relaxed fit, and a cute crop top in your preferred style. Now, you’re ready to grab dinner and dance the night away with your besties!
5. Sneakers
Sneakers are a great way to dress down your leather pants. They are also perfect for a casual day or a day spent running errands. If you want to add a touch of athleisure to your outfit, go for a pair of sneakers.
For a relaxed, casual look, opt for leather joggers, a chunky knit cream sweater, and pair it with chunky sneakers.
6. Animal Print Shoes
If you want to add a touch of fun and personality to your outfit, go for a pair of animal print shoes! They are the perfect way to dress up your leather pants and make them more unique.
Just be sure that your shoes don’t have too much going on – you don’t want to look like a walking zoo.
For a cute outfit idea, wear your leather pants with a cropped graphic tee, leopard print shoes and a casual denim jacket.
7. Flat Mules
Flat mules are a great option if you want to feel comfortable while also looking polished and put-together!
If you’re going to be walking a lot, we suggest going for flat mules so that your feet can breathe.
8. Combat Boots
Lastly, combat boots are the perfect choice to pair with your edgy bottoms. They go great with leather pants, and they will definitely make you stand out from the crowd. We are totally in love with the Gucci combat boots above, and they would look so good with a lot of leather pants outfits.
