Baggy jeans have returned. The early 2000s style of denim that featured wide-legged, boxy, floor-skimming silhouettes is back in full force this year. When your pants are so big that they cover your toes, what shoes should you wear?
It turns out that there are many options. The street style of 2024 shows that baggy jeans are versatile and can be worn in many different ways. They also come in various denim washes. Boots with narrow toes or block heels in the ’90s style will boost any look. Ballet flats, like the Chanel version, are also a fun addition. Clever styling techniques like cuffing and tucking your hems will further highlight your footwear.
Classics will always be in style no matter what trendy denim is paired with them. Silhouettes ranging from white sneakers to pointed pumps were also worn, giving the new style a retro and approachable feel.
Below, take a glimpse at eleven street-style-approved shoes to pair with your baggy jeans.

Ballet flats have been a hit for a while now. These flats are a stylish alternative to sneakers, and they’re also a great option for those who prefer heels. Metallics in gold or silver are easy to match with jewelry and bag hardware. They make a bold statement, while being comfortable.
Kitten Heel Pumps

Similar to ballet flats and kitten heels, these pumps are a low-heeled shoe that is both comfortable and stylish. The 1-2 inch height boost they provide also prevents your jeans’ hems completely touching the floor. Any leather pair, in any color or finish, will add a sharp finish to any outfit.
Square Toed Sandals

If you want to look like you’re from the 2000s, wear a pair square-toed shoes with baggy jeans. The geometric design will stand out against the long denim hemlines. High or thicker heels are also recommended to keep them from sliding. Katie Holmes is a great example of how to try out the style without getting a cold. Layer your jeans with colorful tights.
Narrow Toe Boots

Pair your baggy jeans and a pair of narrow-toed booties for a touch of nostalgia. Closed toes with slightly squared edges give a stylish geometric finish while still harking back to the early 2000s. To add vintage flair, choose neutral shades like black or dark brown in matte or metallic finishes. These can be worn for many years.
Slouchy Boots

Avoid letting the hems of your jeans dangle to the ground. Tuck your jeans into boots with slouchy shafts. The larger openings in the shoes will let your denim retain its original shape, whether you wear them with high or low heels. You can also wear them over boots if that’s what you prefer.
White Sneakers

White sneakers are always in style. They can be worn with all types of denim, even baggy jeans. Low-top, leather or suede lace-up sneakers provide a simple base. Rubber soles allow for easy movement. As seen in New York Fashion Week on the streets, a hint of tone-on-tone colors or patterns can give the minimalist look a personal touch.
Embellished Low-Height Heels

Low-height mules and pumps with closed toes, and a heeled base are a great complement to baggy denim. The mesh or sheer uppers offer a comfortable foundation, while embellishments such as crystals, metallics jacquards or shiny trim add a touch of glamour to your shoes.
Block Heeled Boots

The block-heeled boots are a wardrobe classic that goes well with baggy jeans. The shoe will provide a balance that keeps your hems above the ground and ensures you have a full foot cover. As with any shoe you wear every day, choose a color that is versatile, such as black, beige, or brown.
Colorful Sandals

Sandals in bright colors can make a playful statement with baggy jeans. Stilettos and block heels will give you an instant height boost. While bright colors like yellow, pink and orange will stand out against the dark denim. Detailing like thick heels, platform soles and styling tricks such as cuffing hems will also draw attention to the shoe.
Animal-Print Boots

Why not experiment with prints to style your baggy denim? Elevate the voluminous jeans with a pair of animal-printed boots. Fuller coverage, a range of heel sizes and patterns that mimic cheetahs or cows can be worn with casual bottoms.
Sharp Pumps

Even when worn with the latest denim, a pointed-toed pump will never be out of fashion. The smooth leather or suede versions in classic black and brown create the sharpest contrast with your baggy denim, creating a chic and nonchalant finish. Frayed hems or jeans that extend higher on the leg allow the shoe to be more noticeable.
