4. The material of your fall shoes

Leather, synthetic uppers, rubber... there are so many different materials to choose from when it comes to your fall shoes. And again, the best material for you will depend on what you are looking for. Rain boots like Sporto's Bethany are made of high-quality rubber and are sure to keep your feet dry even on stormy days. Faux leather shoes like Kenneth Coles Peyton are durable and extremely fashionable. But don't get us wrong! Leather is also a great, breathable material that makes sure that your feet don't overheat on a sunny fall's day. Dress shoes with a sturdy sole, just like the Clyde Flax Lace Up, are a fantastic option that can be dressed up or down.

5. Don't fall over in fall

Boots like Totes Esther or Totes All-Weather Boots Tommy Brown, have a rubber outsole that is perfect for wet and icy weather conditions.
