Fashionable men's footwear for spring 2021

Every season sets its own fashion trends, and spring 2021 is no exception. The key distinction of this season's styles lies in the materials used. This season it is worth favouring predominantly natural materials, such as leather and suede. On top of that, a defining feature this season will be bold and unconventional choices. Every footwear style should include bright and unique details.

Lacing

The lacing detail has been a feature of men's footwear for more than one season, and indeed more than one year. But since spring 2021 will favour interesting choices and bold combinations, the lacing too becomes interesting and unconventional. These might be brightly coloured laces on classic black shoes, or a mix of bright lacing with buckle fastenings.

Boots

Designers are offering an enormous range of fashionable boots this season. Cowboy boots are a thing of the past. In their place, with great success, come tall boots with a moulded sole. This style also has its own twist. The most popular are boots with a moulded sole in a colour that differs strikingly from the main colour of the style.

Classic styles remain a favourite. But decoration is essential too, and fringing and various straps have stepped into that role with great success.

Ankle boots

The trend for bright colour has not passed by ankle boots either. The most sought-after and contemporary are multicoloured styles made from natural suede. Even though suede footwear is very demanding to care for and far from practical, the vast majority of men still prefer it. Such footwear has an expensive and respectable look.

As for variety and distinctive features, a sporty presence stands out. A trend of the season is the appearance of bright sporty-style stripes on classic ankle boots in neutral colours.

Dress shoes

The main distinction of the coming season is the conviction that dress shoes should not be dull. Design choices can be truly creative. Here it is not just plain colourful options that become relevant, but interesting and unique combinations. Coloured suede can be paired with eye-catching patent, coloured inserts, and vice versa. The shoes can be lace-up, with buckle and strap fastenings, or with no fastenings at all.

Trainers

The most relevant men's footwear of all is the trainer. New styles appear every single day. They can now be worn not only to the gym or outdoors, but every day. Gone are the days when trainers sat in the wardrobe waiting for a day off and the right occasion. They have now become a firm part of everyday life. Trainers pair successfully with both casual and business styles of clothing. The most relevant and sought-after colour choices will be:

• brown. Brown trainers will be relevant in any shade;

• blue. Every shade of blue — from a soft sky blue to electric blue;

• combined colour pairings. Any combination is welcome, but styles with a contrasting pairing of black and white win out in preference.

Natural materials lead the way in sportswear styles too. Men choose leather, suede and nubuck. For sport itself, however, textile trainers remain the constant. This is because they are softer and perform best when used for running and jumping.

It is trainers in particular that are footwear for any season. Men choose them not only in spring and autumn. They are also in demand on cold winter days.

Sneakers

One variety of men's sportswear footwear. It is distinguished by its height. As with other styles, this season offers room for experimentation. By combining the seemingly incompatible, you can create the perfect look. Every sneaker style stands out for its individuality and brightness. Jeans and even classic suits make the perfect pairing with sneakers. They are ideal for everyday wear. The materials used are, as a rule, natural leather, natural suede and nubuck. A contrasting colour pairing will emphasise individuality and relevance, winning you over with its modernity.
