The 8 Best Shoes to Wear With Wide-Leg Trousers

Wide-leg trousers have been the breakout wardrobe must-have of 2022, and they’re showing no signs of dropping off our radar as we head into 2023. Between fashion month, where tailoring outnumbered pretty dresses two to one, and the most current celebrity outfits that focus on puddle pants, trousers are everywhere I look. Even I, a former midi-dress devotee, have fallen for the polished wardrobe staple like never before. However, wide-leg trousers can take some getting used to in terms of styling, which is why I’ve been looking at the best trouser-and-shoe pairings to try for the season ahead.
