Summer is there and tapping appears to be the best option to keep your feet at ease and stylish during the beautiful sunny days. And yet, a completely different pair would be much more refreshing.
The craze for tapping is undoubtedly understandable: they slide easily in the suitcase, walk without embarrassment from sand to the terrace and are available in infinity of patterns. But this popularity also exposes its limits. Comfort is often random: soles too fine, lack of support, risk of warm -up. Imagine walking a whole day, feeling pain under the foot, or even undergoing an unpleasant sweat during an afternoon of heat wave. The materials used in the best -selling models – rigid plastic, basic foam – do not always give the impression of being breathable or durable.
Critics also point to the aesthetic factor: a foot that sweats in a plastic flower does not always make a sensation. In the long run, the visual aspect can be altered: the foam whitens, crumbles, the bridle relaxes. This is why it is generally more judicious to opt for a solid construction, quality leather, a finish worthy of last. These are the characteristics that guarantee stable comfort and neat rendering, even after several weeks of daily use.
Light, breathable, pleasant to wear both in town and seaside … The leather sandal checks all the boxes. Made in carefully selected and ethical leather, it combines robustness and flexibility: thick where the maintenance is necessary, more flexible where the comfort premises. Its design goes to the essentials: two crossed straps to properly hold the foot, a discreet buttress, a gum and cork sole to amortize the steps. It is not another summer accessory, but a real choice, for those who want to combine style, comfort and ecological consciousness.
The good surprise is that for leather sandals, the prices remain in a reasonable range, with most of the time European manufacturing. Among the use of us, there is a foot held without constraint, an atmosphere of freshness that holds until evening and a foolproof solidity for back and forth between the beach and the city.
In particular, you will find the cross sandals in smooth leather, displayed at 69.99 euros on the La Redoute site. Also, a crocodile effect model in a burgundy shade at Asos Design at 39.99 euros, or a braided version in beige leather at 59.99 euros at Monoprix.
