Summer at EscapeShoes – The ideal shoes for the beach

How many times has it happened to you that you thought that you were ready for the holidays, but when the decisive moment came, you realized that you’ve forgotten something? With that in mind, we decided to publish some posts on our blog to help you choose the ideal shoes for each situation that you may face during this summer. On today’s EscapeShoes post, we’re going to the beach! Do you want to come with us?

With these summer days getting hotter and hotter, there is only one thing in mind of the majority of us: holidays. It is the best time to enjoy the sun, to spend time with the family and friends and to enjoy the so well-deserved rest. And, of course, many people also take this chance to travel and to meet new places, but… are you really ready for this summer? At times, while planning the holidays, it is possible that some things might slip away, for example, shoes. Do you have all the shoes that might be needed for each occasion during your holidays ready? You’re not really sure? Then, don’t worry, because EscapeShoes is here to help you!

On today’s post, we will make a small selection of shoes that we think are ideal for one of the most common situations during summer. The truth is that this post is part of a series of posts that will be published during the next few weeks, each one with its respective scenario and our best choices so that you can be ready for any occasion. To start, we will go to a place that is almost a synonym of summer: the beach.

With the high temperatures of summer, there is nothing better than to go to the beach or the pool. You can cool yourself in the water or get a nice tan. However, in addition of worrying about your bathing suit, sometimes it is also essential to take into account the shoes you wear.

Therefore, I think that one of the most important aspects is that you need to wear shoes that are easy to put on and take off, since that when you arrive at the beach and find your place to spread your towel, the most likely is that you spend the majority of time barefoot in the sand, but it is also necessary to use shoes when, for example, you go to a coffee shop nearby. In this case, one of our preferred choices would definitively be Birkenstock sandals.

Its sandals, similar to flip-flops, are great to take to the beach and also to the pool, because they are very light, thanks to their EVA outsole, but they also secure your foot without pressuring it. Hence, you will be able to walk comfortably with them and take them off easily whenever you feel like it.

Among the huge variety of Birkenstock sandals, there are several different models, but the ones that we consider to be the most appropriate for this situation, and also the most popular, are the Gizeh and Madrid models. Both lines offer you many colours and patterns for all tastes, which is why, as an example, I would like to show you two of my favourite models.

The Gizeh Silver are fantastic to match with dark colours, like black and navy blue, as well as with more vivid colours, such as pink, red and green. They are perfect for when you want to have a simpler look, but also with the metallized silver touch to make you stand out. On the other hand, the Madrid Snake Brown are ideal for when you want to have a more exotic look. Besides, you can use them with skirts, dresses, shorts or even leggings in neutral colours, like beige and brown.

However, if you are a woman that likes to feel elegant and to have a little bit of height even when you are at the beach or the pool, we also have the perfect solution for you! Since platforms shoes are a trend this season, we made a selection of two models that will give you the elegance and the height that you desire, but also the comfort that you need so that you can be well-rested.

The MTNG Paty Pink are very similar to the Birkenstock in several aspects, like the light and malleable sole and the fact that they are made of synthetic materials. To differentiate, this Spanish brand adds its classic platform sole, in order to provide you the desired height, and also a padded layer in the insole so that you have a comfortable and relaxed walk.

On the second image, you will be able to see something that was a true surprise this season: Cubanas Flip Flops Buzio Midnight Blue. It is actual proof of the originality of this brand! Their wedge offers certain elegance to these simple shoes, which will make you stand out when you go to that beach party. Both the MTNG and the Cubanas are available in other colours, so take a look to see if you are able to find your favourite.
