The sun was blazing in Copenhagen this week but that didn’t deter any of the attendees of the at Copenhagen Fashion Week Spring 2026 from looking their best right down to their footwear. Sat at the front of the media riser for the first time rather than using a tripod towards the back as I have always done in the past, I couldn’t help but notice everyone’s shoes while we sat and waited for each show to begin. Show by show I started snapping photos of the footwear that caught my eye as guests walked into each venue and were shown to their seats.
Some brands were particularly popular and I saw them again and again (New Balance, Adidas and Puma – especially the Puma Speedcat OG – seem to be favourites) while others were trending styles like ballerinas, socks worn with sandals, or statement pieces like the Loewe balloon sandals.
