Am not a big fashion person but do love SHOES – especially comfortable ones – and it certainly looks like all the trends are going my way!!  (And, btw, attendance at the Atlanta Shoe Market for Spring 2016 was up 10% so I’m not the only one into shoes!).

Here are the 4 biggest trends:

1. Athleisure Soles & Comfort Elements

Athletic bottoms in shades of white were a key story. Styles from Skechers’ Go Walk label along with fashion-focused designs from Birkenstock, featured unique soles, in both whites and color.

2. Mint Green & Aqua Colorways

From Nanette Lepore’s fashion line, to Keen’s Uneek for women — aqua and pastel mint colors were big sellers at just about any price point.

3. Bohemian Influences

Fringe continued to be a key element. Additionally, ghillie and gladiator sandals continued their momentum in spring ’16 buys.

5. Multi-Use Outdoor

Versatile outdoor shoes with rubber, anti-slip bottoms were hot, as was waterproofing. Outstanding brands included Keen, Columbia and Bogs.
