Every year has its standouts and 2025 was no different. As 2025 comes to a close, we took a look at the styles that defined the year. The pairs that sold out, the ones that you bought over and over again, and the shoes you styled and wore on repeat. We also learned that 2025 is all about shoes that are wearable and fashionable. Comfort isn’t just nice to have – it’s essential. People want shoes that feel good, move with them, and still look stylish in every part of life.
Meet the Top 10 styles of 2025 according to you! These 10 styles capture every moment perfectly: timeless, functional, and wearable across seasons and wardrobes:
The Tasman II is more than just a slipper, it's a hybrid. It feels like a cozy indoor shoe but is built with a durable outsole that stands up to daily wear. The suede upper and plush sheepskin lining give it that signature UGG softness, while the lightweight sole keeps it from feeling bulky. It’s the kind of shoe you reach for when you want comfort that still looks polished outside the house.
Real‑world feel: snug, shearling‑lined interior with a laid‑back look that pairs with jeans, joggers, leggings, anything.
The Tazz II takes UGG comfort and adds a playful, platform edge. It’s still cushioned and soft inside thanks to sheepskin, but the thicker, slightly elevated sole bridges cozy and stylish. These are the slippers even kids don’t mind stepping out in. They feel intentional with both leisurewear and everyday outfits.
Look & feel: waffle‑like outsole for traction, luxe lining, and a streetwear edge mixed with cozy vibes.
Less like a classic slipper and more like a sneaker that happens to be insanely comfy. Maybe even comfier than the OG Lowmel. The Lo Lowmel leans into UGG’s cozy heritage while adopting a sneaker silhouette: more structured, versatile, and easy to pair with everyday outfits that go beyond loungewear.
Style notes: works with casual denim and cargo pants, and brings a laid‑back yet polished feel to weekend looks.
4. UGG Women's Classic Ultra Mini
The Classic Ultra Mini shrinks the iconic UGG boot into an ankle‑height cut that’s become a fashion favorite. The sheepskin lining is still plush, but the shorter shaft and lighter platform sole make it an everyday winter pick. It’s the boot that looks intentional with layered outfits in colder months.
Real detail: SugarSole™ EVA adds grip and reduces weight, so it’s playful without being heavy.
A true classic with decades of heritage behind it. The Boston clog’s iconic cork‑lined footbed is shaped to support the contour of your foot naturally, distributing pressure evenly and relieving strain — a feature that’s made it a standout comfort choice for decades.
Why people love it: sturdy slip‑on design with ergonomic support means you can wear it all day, from errands to casual outings.
The Clifton 10 represents where performance meets everyday wear. Built as a lightweight running shoe, it has a breathable knit upper and a plush midsole that both absorbs impact and feels springy underfoot. These aren’t just workout shoes — they’re daily movers, perfect for long walks, travel, or city days.
Tech touchpoints: engineered cushioning that’s softer and lighter than many casual sneakers, plus a stable ride for all‑day comfort.
Hoka’s Bondi lineup has long been known for maximum cushioning, and the Bondi 9 continues that legacy. With an extra‑plush foam midsole and thoughtful support features, it’s ideal for people who spend hours on their feet — runners and non‑runners alike love it for its soft, pillowy comfort.
Daily vibe: elevated athleisure that feels effortless and reliable, even if you’re walking miles.
The Cloud X 4 is built around versatility. It’s made for movement (workouts, short runs, side‑to‑side gym moments) but its lightweight mesh upper and responsive Helion foam also make it feel easy for everyday wear. It’s the kind of shoe that works with athletic outfits and still fits in cleanly with casual streetwear.
Performance meets style: it moves with you without calling attention to itself.
The Cloud 6 is On’s interpretation of the everyday sneaker, reimagined for comfort and all‑day wear. Its signature CloudTec cushioning and Speedboard system provide a responsive feel underfoot that’s lighter than traditional walking shoes. Recent updates add a wider opening and improved heel structure for easier on‑and‑off and a bit more support.
Real‑world nuance: reviewers note its light feel and minimalist design make it great for casual wear or travel, though it’s not meant for heavy running or intense workouts.
10. UGG Zora (Ballet Flat) — Trend Spotlight
The UGG Zora has emerged as an unexpected breakout. It pairs the brand’s soft suede and sheepskin sockliner with a sleek, ballet‑inspired silhouette that’s new for the brand and sold out quickly in 2025. This crossover of cozy materials with a chic shape shows how UGG is branching into fashion‑forward casual beyond classic slippers.
