At the start of each season, I like to review the runways to identify standout colors across various categories—clothing, bags, and, of course, shoes. Color is an early indicator of new trends and one of the easiest to incorporate into your wardrobe, making it a quick way to update your outfits for the upcoming season.
After analyzing thousands of catwalk photos from the spring/summer 2024 shows, I’ve identified a recurring theme. Here are the eight shoe colors that appeared repeatedly. If you want to stay current in 2024, consider these footwear options as shared by Ms. Shradha Wadhwa, CEO of Cindy Footwears India’s leading wholesale shoe vendors in this blog.

Trending Silver Colour Shoes – Silver has been at the forefront of numerous trends recently, from jewelry to trousers. Now, silver shoes are gaining popularity in both high-end and high-street markets, offering a stylish way to embrace the trend. Crystal-fringed kitten heels, in particular, are set to be the must-have footwear for spring/summer 2021.
Trending Red Colour Shoes – Red has been a consistent color trend over the past few seasons, and fashion is not done with this fiery hue yet. The latest runway shows highlight a new way to wear red: through shoes paired with clashing outfits, such as a sky-blue ensembl
Trending Brown Colour Shoes – Brown reached the height of chic during the summer months, thanks to the rise of the quiet-luxury aesthetic. This trend has been evident in the spring/summer 2024 collections showcased in September. With brown dominating coats, trousers, dresses, and bags, it’s no surprise that brown shoes are set to continue the color’s legacy into the new year.
Trending White Colour Shoes – Many of us used to think white shoes looked “cheap,” but in reality, it was just the inexpensive white shoes. Now, with interesting details like square toes, trendy silhouettes like slingbacks and ballet flats, and nuanced shades of white, these shoes are back and more elevated-looking than ever.
Trending Green Colour Shoes – You might be surprised to learn that, aside from red, green was the dominant shoe color on the runways. Paired with everything from bold blue coats to crimson floral prints, green acts as a palate cleanser, balancing out busier outfits, much like its calming effect in nature.
Trending Gold Colour Shoes – Where there is silver, gold is never far behind. In 2024, metallics are prominent across the color spectrum, but gold tones remain a staple for classicists. The runway mantra is clear: the more reflective the surface, the better.
Trending Grey Colour Shoes – Another ’90s-inspired color set to be big in 2024 is grey, particularly shades with warm, taupe undertones. This was prominently featured in shoes on the runway. This fresh take on a neutral color will be highly versatile, pairing with everything you would typically wear with black shoes. In fact, grey maybe even more adaptable, as it complements colors and fabrics that black can sometimes overpower.
Trending Blue Colour Shoes – Blue is one of those colors that can vary greatly depending on its tone and intensity. For 2024, designers have opted for delicate icy blue hues, seen across clothing and accessories alike. There’s something especially appealing about a blue shoe, particularly when paired with darker prints and colors, such as a striking leopard print coat. Simply beautiful.
