Kate Middleton's Favorite Shoes

Let’s face it, we all secretly wish we could take a peek through Kate Middleton’s closet. Between the ballgowns and the iconic polka-dotted looks, it’s like a treasure trove of chicness. However, there’s one part of her looks that seems to be overlooked every time, and we can’t stand idly by anymore. We’re sorry, but her shoe taste is immaculate.

While we know Kate loves a good rewear, her biggest rewear goldmine lies with her shoe collection. Now, it’d take us a decade to break down every single shoe the Princess of Wales has worn since becoming a royal in 2011, but that isn’t stopping us from talking about her most beloved pairs. (Any guesses which pair of shoes she’s worn to over 20 public events?!)

Kate knows how to perfectly compliment whatever look she chooses with the right pair of footwear. For formal events or high-profile royal events, she often goes for heels. During public events in colder months or nature-based events, she opts for boots. And casual events and outings, she’s all about her go-to pair of sneakers.

She often shakes up parts of her looks, but we’ve noticed she’s worn these 12 shoes more often than others (and more eagle-eyed fans noticed this too)!

From her under $70 favorite pair of sneakers to the nearly $3,000 pair of heels she wears to balls, we got the Princess of Wales’ favorite shoes here. Not only that, we know when she wore them out, how many times, and even where you can buy them!

In honor of her wearing one of her go-to shoes at the 2024 Trooping the Colour, check out Kate’s favorite shoes she’s worn in public below:

Jimmy Choo Romy 85 Pumps In White Leather
The Jimmy Choo Romy 85 Pumps In White Leather have quickly become one of Kate’s favorites. Since 2021, she’s worn them out on eight separate occasions (even during her first day at Wimbledon in 2021)! While she also owns them in black, she often opts for lighter shoe colors, and she did so at the 2024 Trooping the Colour.

See by Chloé Leather-Trimmed Suede Ankle Boots
The See by Chloé Leather-Trimmed Suede Ankle Boots in brown are one of Kate’s go-tos for loyal outdoor excursions, ever since she debuted them in 2019.
Aquazzura Bow Tie 105 Suede Pumps In Black
Another beloved shoe brand is Aquazzura. In fact, she owns multiple different pairs from the brand, but the most iconic may be the Aquazzura Bow Tie 105 Suede Pumps In Black. They were referred to as one of Meghan Markle’s go-to shoes (and were even seen on Rose Hanbury)! Already in 2023, she’s worn them twice and we’re only in Sept!
Superga 2750 Cotu Classic Sneakers
One of Kate’s most well-known accessories is the Superga 2750 Cotu Classic Sneakers in white, which she often wears to more casual events. She’s worn them over a dozen times since 2016, and even bought the repackaged pairs when they were released!

Gianvito Rossi Rania 105 Pumps in ‘Silver’
Gearing away from the Gianvito pumps and to the other brand’s iconic collection: the Rania 105 Pumps. Kate has worn the silver ones to three majorly formal events like the Bahamas Reception, South African state dinner, and the 2022 Earthshot Prize Awards.

Gianvito Rossi ‘Gianvito 105’ Pumps in Praline Pink Suede
As we said, Kate loves her Gianvito Rossi ‘Gianvito 105’ Pumps (literally, she owns the same pumps in nine different colors)! But her absolute favorite pair is the praline pink suede ones. She’s worn them at least 20 times in public, and pairs when with literally any look. It’s safe to say these are probably her favorite everyday heel!

Gianvito Rossi ‘Gianvito 105’ Pumps In Royale Burgundy Suede
Yes, we’re finally at the Gianvito Rossi portion of the slideshow. As many loyal Kate fans know, she often steps out in one of her go-to ‘Gianvito 105’ pumps. In fact, she’s worn the Royale Burgundy Suede shade nine times in public alone! This shade has been discontinued, but it’s still a piece Kate often reaches for.
Tod’s Fringed Leather Pumps
These maroon, fringe pumps are quite unlike Kate’s usual shoes, but they’ve become a quick staple in her closet. She’s already worn the Tod’s Fringed Leather pumps five times since 2015, and often wears them to match her fall-colored looks.
Emmy London Josie Block Heel Pointed Court Shoe In Midnight Navy Suede
It’s no secret that one of Kate’s favorite brands is Emmy London, especially for shoes. While she’s worn a wide array of colors and different shoe types from the brand, these navy Josie Block Heel Pointed Court shoes are probably her favorite of the bunch. As of July 2023, she’s worn them in public 13 times.
