Top 100 Shoes Trends in October

From Quilted Leather Mules to Halloween-Themed Lifestyle Sneakers

In October 2022, brands are focusing on providing consumers with footwear options suitable for the colder elements in addition to celebrating collegiate styles and old sources of inspiration in pop culture.

As technology makes its way into the world of fashion, a notable example of an innovative shoe is the YEEZY 3D-printed boots unveiled at Paris Fashion Week. The Brooklyn studio Zellerfeld worked with designers to create the 3D-printed boots, utilizing the brand's 3D printing technology to create a practical pair of footwear.

Another contribution is the 'Dawn' hue of the Yamasura sneaker model, a new tonal edition for the season from German sneaker store AFEW. Most notably, the shoe is made entirely of 100% vegan materials. The Yamasura originally made its debut with the 'Soil' colorway last year.
