Best women's sliders for summer 2019

Fashion has taken a collective step towards the comfy – and we are happy to announce that this also includes our summer footwear.

Chunky trainers have ruled the streets, leaving a trail of sold-out Balenciaga Triple S and Fila’s Disrupters in its wake. But what will be gracing our feet when the warm weather takes over?

Sliders or slides are characterised by flat backless, open-toed silhouettes and have become one of the most sought-after shoes of the season, putting comfort in favour of aesthetic appeal.

But while sliders were once chunky rubber slip-ons that did not evoke a huge level of excitement, they have been given a luxury makeover by our favourite fashion labels giving the shoes a whole new feminine appeal.

This summer, adopt the most simple yet stylish of footwear trends.

Puma x Sue Tsai Leadcat 'Cherry Bombs' Satin Sandals

A knotted kerchief is the perfect hasty headwear — cute and quick — and for SS19 artist Sue Tsai has revamped the recognisable knot in collaboration with Puma. The slip-ons combine a sweet cherry blossom-like detail on a satin bow with an edgy camouflage print sole.

Udele Sport Slide by Coach

From luxe poolside lunching to balmy garden parties the Udele sport slide from Coach is all about high-end summer styling made easy. The cartoon-like cherry looks extra cute peaking out from beneath a pair of wide leg jeans, or put it on full display in a coordinating floral or a white summer dress.
