The ideal festival shoes!
If you read the title of this EscapeShoes blog post, you know we’ll talk about summer shoes, but today we focus on a vital part of each summer: the festivals. Either music or medieval festivals or just a regional celebration, something that you can be sure is that there will be a lot of fun, food and drinks and a lot, but really a lot, of people. And, of course, you don’t want the wrong shoes to get in the way of your fun, so we brought to you a small selection of the ideal shoes to use at summer festivals.
As you must already know, festivals nowadays are much more than just a big party. Now, they’re huge congregations of people that not only want to have fun, but also show that they’ve the best style and that they know the latest trends. With that in mind, we chose two models for you, so that you can always be in fashion:
The best thing about these two pairs is that they’re ideal for festivals, as well as for walks around town and even for work or an informal party.
The thing that can never be missing in the wardrobe of any festivalgoer is a pair of ankle boots. It’s the perfect combination of fashion and style with comfort. And there’s no brand that does it better than Xuz. Known for its elegant and feminine ankle boots, this Portuguese brand offered us this year the Brown Xuz with Strip. You can match them with many colours due to their neutral shade and also with several types of clothes, like dresses, skirts, shorts or even skinny jeans.
The second pair’s the Mayari Pull Up Stone sandals, a vegan pair by Birkenstock that’s ideal for when you know that the festival will be crowded with people, which is the most likely, and that it’ll not be very comfortable to walk around with high heels. On the other hand, the soft and velvety texture of their felt will comfort your feet during every moment and their slip-resistant EVA sole underneath will assure you’ve a secure and comfortable walk.
Since we mentioned comfort, sometimes this factor’s forgotten when you’re getting ready to go to a festival. You need to take into consideration that the most likely thing to happen when you go to a festival is that you’ll spend a lot of time standing and, in those cases, the most recommendable’s to use flat shoes, such as sneakers and espadrilles.
When we talk about sneakers, one of the first brands that come to mind is Converse. Its All Star sneakers are always fashionable and their quality and durability are unquestionable. They’re perfect for every occasion, including festivals, and you can find them in several colours, like white, such as in the picture above, or red, navy blue, grey, black, pink, yellow, etc…
Regarding espadrilles, it’s a type of shoes that rapidly started to become a trend, and one of the brands best-known for its espadrilles is Paez. Again, you’ll be able to find a huge variety of different colours and patterns, and they’re very resistant and flexible. Moreover, their outsoles are made of a light material so that you can have a light and comfortable walk.
About these two brands, something that I didn’t mention was that many of their shoes are unisex, so it’s a good opportunity to go to that festival matching with your better-half!
However, many of these summer festivals take place outdoors, where there can be wet and muddy areas. Therefore, it’s necessary to have a pair of durable and waterproof wellies so that you can enjoy the festival to the fullest without worrying of getting your feet wet. Can you think of a brand that’s able to fulfil this goal better than Cubanas?
At the risk of sounding repetitive, Cubanas offers a huge range of wellies, especially regarding the colours. This way, you’ll always be able to find the wellies that best adapt to you. If you prefer dark and discreet colours, there are black or navy blue wellies, such as the one on the picture above.
However, if you want to highlight your outfit without compromising with a pair of wellies, about about these Palladium Baggy Morning Mist? Their brighter shade of turquoise is perfect!
