With the mercury beginning to rise as we head into the warmer seasons, it’s only right that we let our feet enjoy the sun after those frosty winter nights. What better way than with a new pair of slides? Built for recreation and relaxation, the slide is the epitome of effortless slip-on style. Whether you rock them with socks or without, we’ve dug through our extensive range of slides, slippers and flip-flops to bring you our top 5 selects for the upcoming spring season.
Perfect for beach adventures, lazy local trips, or weekend shenanigans, do away with those old thongs and elevate your footwear with one of these spring slides:
1. Nike Benassi
A quintessential style in the world of slides, the Benassi is Nike’s coolest sandal for every summer. The height of simplistic perfection with single Swoosh branding, these are perfect for pre or post-game hoopers, or cosy boys and girls looking to lounge. Match your pair with knitted socks (please do not wear with adidas socks) to take things to the next level and prove how effortless your spring/summer style is.
2. adidas Adilette
Another heavy hitter in the game, stay on the adidas train and go back to basics with the Adilette. A true definition of an OG, this classic boasts the Three Stripes on the jelly strap and comes in a plethora of colour-ways to suit any fit. A true Hall Of Famer, so you really can’t go wrong.
3. Puma Popcat
Get set for your next holiday with a pair of Popcat Slides from Puma. A beach adventure essential, these slides feature a lightweight injection-moulded EVA outsole, a comfortable footbed plus a soft, quick-drying synthetic strap. Arriving complete with signature Puma branding on the strap for one final stamp of style approval, there’s more than meets the eye with these slides.
4. Lacoste Frasier
If you really want to kick-it up another level, lux vibes radiate off these Lacoste Frasier’s for the dealer chic look. Our personal favourite is the clean white with green Lacoste branding on the strap; because if you’re going to go the luxury route, you have to keep it classic.
5. Nike Kawa
These one’s are for the kids, because it’s only right we set them up for success with the Nike Kawa. Bearing a striking resemblance to the Benassi, the Kawa integrates a Solarsoft foam footbed to ensure supreme cushioning and flex grooves for a more natural range of motion. A staple for any children’s wardrobe, become the favourite mum, dad, aunt or uncle, when you gift a pair to the littlest of feet.
