In case you haven’t noticed, it’s getting chilly out there. The leaves are changing, jackets are quickly becoming more of a necessity than an accessory, and those open-toe shoes? They’ve officially made their way to the back of the closet. In other words, it’s boot season! Around this is the time of year when we dig out all the boots we own—heeled, flat, ankle, knee-high—and, of course, shop for a new pair (or two) to keep things feeling ~ fresh ~. Not only are boots a practical choice as the temps drop, but they’re also a total outfit game-changer. A great pair of boots can take an outfit from 0 to 10 in an instant. And let’s face it, no fall wardrobe is complete without a new pair of “fall-approved” boots.

We found 11 pairs of fall-approved boots to shop

In honour of our upcoming Stuart Weitzman Toronto Warehouse Sale, we thought the perfect way to celebrate would be to take a deep dive into the coveted shoe brand, exploring its past and present! From its founding in 1986 to its glowing reputation today, Stuart Weitzman has grown to be one of the top high-end footwear brands available on the market, thanks to its high-quality craftsmanship and desirable designs. 

Let’s dive in!

Stuart Weitzman was founded by none other than Stuart Weitzman himself back in 1986. Before the brand’s founding, Weitzman grew up apprenticing under his father, Seymour Weitzman, at the Mr. Seymour shoe factory, sketching his first-ever shoe design in 1957, at the age of 16!

Since the Creation of the Namesake Brand, the majority of Stuart Weitzman’s collections have been produced in Elda, Spain, a tiny city in the Alicante province known for its artisanal shoemaking.

Stuart Weitzman has become known for its impeccable style and comfort. Weitzman was one of a few designers who was also a skilled pattern-maker, believing that “a beautiful shoe is useless unless it feels as wonderful as it looks.”

Flash forward to 1993, when the first Stuart Weitzman boutique opened in Las Vegas, and one of the brand’s most popular shoe styles, the 5050 back-stretch boot was born. Which like it sounds, has a stretchable back design for extra comfort and wearability.

Stuart Weitzman is continuously spotted on the red carpet, having become a major celebrity staple. Its first notable celebrity moment was when Aretha Franklin thanked Weitzman for designing her Stuart Weitzman for Mr. Seymour shoes while accepting an award at the 1983 American Music Awards—before the Stuart Weitzman brand was even established! Since then, Stuart Weitzman has had many more memorable red-carpet moments, famously including its Million Dollar shoes, adorned with 464 diamonds, worn by Laura Harring at the Academy Awards.

In 2012, the brand enters what it calls its “supermodel era”, working with famous models such as Natalia Vodianova, Kate Moss, Gisele Bündchen, Gigi Hadid, and Kendall Jenner.

Over the years, Stuart Weitzman has created a variety of iconic footwear staples, adored by everyone from celebrities to everyday fashion enthusiasts. Its most popular designs include the NUDIST sandal and the over-the-knee stretch boots, LOWLAND and HIGHLAND.

To this day, the Stuart Weitzman brand maintains meticulous dedication to detail and history of artisanal Spanish craftsmanship, creating beautiful shoes that deliver style and comfort for women who are “confident, bold — and, above all, strong.”
