The 15 Most Comfortable But Chic Summer Shoes For Every Possible Occasion
by The Candidly Team
Ahhh, warm-weather shoes. The strappy heels. The woven sandal. The dainty slide.
It all sounds wildly fun up until the moment you’re wrapping your ankle in 22 inches of espadrille straps that are somehow either so tight that you stop feeling your knees after an hour or loose enough to leave you wobbling off the sidewalk into oncoming traffic.
While all the many summery shoes sound glorious, when it actually comes down to getting dressed, there’s a reason we wind up wearing the same squishy, footprint-embossed flip flops we’ve owned since 2012. And that reason is, we’re tired of shoving our step-sister feet into Cinderella styles.
At this point in life, all we ask for are exceptional-looking shoes that don’t moonlight as tiny little torture chambers.
And because summer demands a different kind of shoe for an endless range of sweltering occasions, we went out and found every single one you need. All of them exceptional-looking. And all of them, bliss to wear.
