These Suede Clogs Are the Perfect Way to Embrace the Return of Boho-Chic

The most stylish slip-on you’ll ever own.

By Ashley Achenbach

Some shoe styles are here for a reason, others only for a season. What denotes the former is typically a carefully deduced combination of versatility and comfort without compromising on the fashion front. And just like a pair of sought-after sneakers or comfy loafers, the beauty of suede clogs is that they can be whatever they need to be: a slipper, a statement, or a casual accent.

The best pair of suede clogs depends on its intended purpose, but high-quality or responsible suede (or, if you’re less inclined to wear genuine leather, a cruelty-free option like this pair) and careful construction are key. For those seeking out a more traditional, Swedish style, opt for a chunky wooden sole and limited embellishments. For maximum coziness, a footbed with woolly lining is more on the mark.

Below, I’ve pulled 15 of the best suede clogs for multifaceted wear all season long.

Birkenstock Boston Big Buckle Clogs

Boston Big Buckle Clogs

It’s no secret that a pair of Birkenstock clogs are essential, and the oversized buckle on this pair elevates the aesthetic a little bit more (while still staying consistent with comfort). The brand also does an animal-friendly Boston clog, but it always seems to fly out of stock anywhere as soon as it arrives.

Material: Cowhide suede, cork

Best Traditional
