Loafers may be having a moment, but oxford shoes are quietly reclaiming their place in 2026. With masculine lasts and adjustable laces, they bring a refined, timeless polish to everyday dressing. These shoes, which were at their most popular in the 1930s and 40s in the closet of Oxford University students – hence their name – are ready to catch the eye of women. Yes, that means loafers, flats, t-bars, mules and more… will take a back seat. A trend that it was a matter of time to see shine, since firms like Miu Miu, Prada, Saint Laurent and even Chanel have taken it upon themselves to give them a second chance, both on past and current runways.
Once again, Oxford shoes will be present in the Spring-Summer 2026 fashion trends and all that’s left is to choose which avant-garde options we’ll see walking the runway in the important fashion capitals. The good news? Not only will there be the classic pair that instantly empowers, there will also be the modern pieces that fit the style codes of the new generations or those daring women who prefer something much more daring. From silhouettes with animal print to serrated soles, irresistible proposals that you will not want to lose in your collection.
