If the Shoe Fits is the fourth studio album by American country rock band Pure Prairie League, released in 1976.

In addition to the usual 2-channel stereo version, the album was also released by RCA Records in a 4-channel quadraphonic sound version in 1976.

The album was reissued in 2017 on a hybrid Super Audio CD by Dutton Vocalion. This edition was remastered from the original master tapes and contains both the original stereo and quadraphonic mixes. The disc is a 2 on 1 release, also containing the band's 1975 album "Two Lane Highway".

It was recorded at the Record Plant, Sausalito and Los Angeles and Capitol Studios, Hollywood.
