Here at FN, we’re dedicated to showcasing the hottest footwear styles — whether that means scouring industry trade shows and catwalks to see what looks will be huge for the next season, meticulously keeping tabs on the latest celebrity trends or getting exclusive access to showrooms to find that ultra-comfortable pair of shoes you’ll practically want to live in.

With fall currently underway, we’ve honed in on our expertise to bring you a range of curated lists featuring must-have styles for the season. First up? Chic women’s boots designed to work with a range of occasions and budgets. All the items originally appeared in our March 19, 2018 print issue, selected by our Women’s Editor Nikara Johns, and Fashion Editor Shannon Adducci, as some of the most innovative and trend-forward looks set to hit shelves this fall. Below, shop all their top picks from brands like Kate Spade and Stuart Weitzman, and make sure to check back throughout the week for more cold-weather roundups.
