Don’t get us wrong, we’ll always have a soft spot for a good pair of statement heels. But if there’s one shoe silhouette that has defined 2026, it’s the ultra-flat, slipper-inspired loafer and oxford. Across the runways, designers have been making a case for this style, with everything from barely-there soles to second-skin silhouettes. Fashion’s latest footwear obsession is all about keeping things close to the ground, proving that low-profile styles can make just as much of a statement without the extra height. Here are the pairs we’re slipping into this season.
