Suede pumps. “Well, you can do anything, but lay off of my blue suede shoes” so the lyrics go to one of early rock and rolls’ most iconic of songs.

Designer Suede Pumps From The Top Designers

Steve Madden span class suede pump, Christian Louboutin black suede pumps, Stuart Weitzman peep toe pumps, as well as Miu Miu suede platform pumps are the latest incarnations of suede shoes, available in trendy boutiques shops or from online websites.

Pumps, whether suede pumps, leather or patent pumps are known in the UK as ballerinas, but in the US, pumps are high heeled shoes, maybe peep toe, slingback shoes, or something in between, but will always have a high heel, and be typically slip-on dress shoes, and possibly showing a little bit of toe cleavage.

As well as suede pumps, casual and formal lace pumps style boots, or boots with hook fastenings, are all very fashionable, for wearing with skirts, jeans or more formal dress wear. Fashion high heels, such as suede pumps have long been a fashion accessory for women, to add height and highlight the lower leg profile.

Suede is made from grain split leather, and has a fuzzy surface on both sides, and has long been a component in clothing and shoes since the Middle Ages. Expensive at the time, only nobles and landed gentry would be seen wearing them, the notion of fashionable clothes for the peasantry was, for the most part beyond their reach, but secondly, and probably a more important factor, they were not practical for everyday life.

It was not until the middle of the eighteenth century that footwear became cheaper and more styles widely available with the advent of the industrial revolution, which was the early kick start for the modern consumer lifestyle that we have today, making many things more easily available and cheaper to produce.

Protect Your Suede Pumps

Grey pumps made of suede, brown suede or black suede high heels, will need more care taken than of them than shoes which have a smooth surface for polishing. Care for suede pumps, or indeed any suede footwear will lengthen the wear life and keep them looking clean and smart. Suede shoes are more prone to scuffs when being worn; however it is a relatively simple job to brush any marks away with a small specially made brush, specifically for restoring suede.

If you want authentic and unique one off styles, then there are many designer made suede pumps and shoes. But if, like me, the budget stretches only so far, then stick to the high street retail outlets. Suede pumps, brown pumps, black leather pumps, so much choice, what does a girl do. Steve Madden Trinitie Platform Pump looks amazing in red and so does Nine West’s Nyek Pump in a paler version of the same shade is also available in the evergreen black. The Casadei Triple Platform Bootie also makes for quite a twist on the classic design bringing together a bootie and the standard pump as one.

I have a general rule of thumb when I am out shopping for shoes.

“If the shoe fits, buy it in every color.”

What more is there to discuss. Get out and buy yourself a great pair of suede pumps.
