Famous Ukrainian designer Andre Tan has named the main footwear anti-trends for autumn 2025. According to him, it's worth giving up certain models this season to maintain a stylish and modern look.
Choppers
The first thing to eliminate from your wardrobe is the so-called choppers, also known as biker boots. If you haven't bought them yet, don't.
According to Tan, a more relevant choice this season is classic cowboy-style boots. They are versatile, match almost any look, and have remained fashionable for several seasons.

Uggs
Another anti-trend this autumn is Ugg shoes. They were once extremely popular, but today they're better reserved for nature trips or short city walks.
Instead, the designer suggests paying attention to more structured models, such as ankle boots with neat soles or loafers. According to Andre Tan, classic styles are back in fashion, helping create an elegant look.

Chunky and lug soles
The third anti-trend is chunky or lug soles. Tan emphasizes that the era of bulky footwear is over.
This autumn, elegant, elongated silhouettes without excessive volume are in trend. Such shoes make an outfit look more refined and emphasize style without being overly aggressive.

Animal print
Another detail the designer highlights is animal print.
Bright and flashy patterns can appear cheap and even ruin an otherwise expensive look. Therefore, it's better to choose neutral, balanced options that combine easily with various wardrobe elements.

Main rule is comfort and harmony
Andre Tan emphasizes that the key when choosing shoes is to combine fashion, comfort, and harmony with your overall style. Even the most expensive and fashionable shoes shouldn't be uncomfortable or clash with your personal aesthetic.
