Fall, we’re ready—with Merino on our feet

Fall is here: the leaves are changing, the air is getting cooler, and the summer shoes are slowly heading back into the closet. But what goes on your feet now? Especially this time of year, you need shoes that keep you warm, are weather-ready, and still look stylish. That’s exactly why we’ve put together the perfect selection of GIESSWEIN fall shoes. Our top 4 models see you confidently through wet streets, brisk strolls, and smart city looks. Whether it’s a morning lap in the park, a shopping trip in the city, or the commute to the office—our Merino favorites have you covered for every situation.

The secret behind it is Merino wool: it regulates temperature, is breathable, and prevents that clammy, sweaty feeling—even when you pick up the pace. At the same time, the soft fabric hugs your foot and delivers a natural, lightweight feel that even delights barefoot. Removable footbeds with a Merino layer stabilize every step and noticeably boost comfort. Lightweight, grippy soles give you confidence on damp leaves without weighing you down. That way, you get the best of both worlds: performance that delivers, and a look that always fits.

And because fall is so versatile, so are our shoes: from laid-back sneakers to weather-ready companions with higher shafts—each model shines with thoughtful details, premium craftsmanship, and timeless design. Merino ensures a healthy foot climate, selected leathers keep you reliably dry, and smart fits let you stay relaxed all day. In the next sections, we’ll introduce the four favorites that will carry you through the season in style and comfort. Choose your fall hero and experience comfort that elevates every step.


Merino Runners

Let’s start with the Merino Runners: The premium Merino fabric wraps your foot in 360° comfort, regulates temperature, and is pleasantly breathable—so there’s no sweaty feel, even when you pick up the pace. The GIESSWEIN removable footbed with a Merino layer stabilizes and cushions for noticeably relaxed steps in everyday life. Super light and flexible, the Runners even impress barefoot with a natural feel. Their clean design pairs with jeans, office looks, and walks through colorful leaves. G width provides a comfortable fit for average-width feet—an all-rounder that puts a smile on your face every day.

Wool Sneaker High Top

For cold days, the Wool Sneaker High Top is your reliable partner: warm like a boot, light like a sneaker—with a higher shaft that comfortably stabilizes your ankles. The premium Merino wool maintains an optimal foot climate, while its naturally water-repellent properties keep you dry in damp fall weather. The removable Merino footbed cushions gently and secures the foot in place. 360° Merino comfort pampers every step, whether you’re on a city tour or a country path. Ideal for temperatures from really cold to mild—and easy to style.

Merino Leather Boot

When it gets truly wet and cold, the Merino Leather Boot plays to its strengths: high-quality, velvety nubuck leather meets a 360° Merino wool lining—waterproof yet breathable. The softly padded collar hugs comfortably, while the performance removable footbed with Merino felt stabilizes your step. The grippy rubber sole gives you secure traction on slippery terrain and supports you reliably through rain, mud, and city puddles. This boot combines a refined look, robust stability, and noticeable warmth—a strong companion for every fall challenge.

Merino Glide

And for urban looks with a feel-good factor, the Merino Glide is the perfect choice: The upper made from LWG Gold–certified suede delivers a premium appearance, while the supple Merino jersey lining gently cocoons your feet. The stabilizing removable footbed with Merino wool offers personalized comfort, and the stylish cupsole with a non-slip rubber tread keeps you comfortable while standing and walking. A padded heel and softly cushioned collar prevent pressure points, while the flat cotton laces stay securely tied. The result: a modern sneaker that casually blends luxury, function, and everyday wearability—just right for your fall city style.
