What's Your Favorite Shoe to Wear in the Summer?

The best thing about summer: flip-flops! OK, the shoes aren't perfect -- they can be murder on your feet, and your soles are filthy when you get home -- but there's something so nice about slipping them on and heading out the door in the hot weather.

flip flops

In fact, we love the ease of summer dressing in general. Especially if you're female, wearing a sundress and a pair of flip-flops is pretty much like wearing nothing at all. It's not quite as easy for guys -- especially when it comes to work clothing -- but it seems like more dudes are rocking flip-flops with pride!

Of course, for a special night out, we prefer our cutest pair of sandals to our cheap, plastic flip-flops. And sometimes, when we're going to be walking around a lot, we'll still wear our sneakers -- even if they make our feet sweaty.

The only thing better than flip-flops? Wearing no shoes at all, at the beach or the pool! So what's your favorite summer shoe?

    Flip flops or just barefoot. There is plenty of soap and water at the end of the day.

    Flip flops are just something associated with summer... I love them! They are do easy to put on and off at the poolside. I have to say, I like my espadrilles too though.

    But I remember when my family went to this resort in the Dominican Republic, and I spent the better part of five days barefoot; it felt really awesome not having to wear shoes outside. I think I even went barefoot to lunch once or twice! :)

    Don't get me wrong, I LOVE my vans and converse, but flip flops can't be beat in the summer :D

    You can put them on in like 1 second and in 1 more second you can be barefoot. It's done, son- they're amazing ^_^

    I consider sandals and flip flops almost the same. I love them because they are the closest to going without shoes, which I feel is too hard on your feet. Not to mention there are so many pretty sandals out now with lots of bling, making them fun to wear.

    I hate flip flops. They don't do anything to help your feet. and you walk slower.

    I love it when my girlfriend wears her white flip-flops! It highlights her bare feet and makes it very obvious that she is not wearing nylons (which she does almost always!).

    Actually, I would prefur to be barefoot, with flip-flops a close second. The reason I
    chose sandals and wear the same for summer footwear, is primarily for safety issues.
    Sandals offer better protection from stepping on sharp objects often encountered on
    the ground than bare feet do, and also state law prohibits bare feet in most restraunts.
    Also most shopping malls and retail establishments require some form of foootwear
    on account of mandates from their insurance underwriters. While I love flip-flops almost
    as much as bare feet and wear them whenever possible, I do find them too easy to come
    off my feet at times. I find that sandals, with velcro straps and buckles midigate the
    situation of feet parting company with footwear at the most inconvenient of times.

    Leather or woven hemp Japanese sandals are my preference if can find them, they keep my feet cooler.

    I like sandals the best. i can't wear flip flops. I have very narrow feet and they totally fall out of flip flops. I love wedge sandals during the summer months.

    Flip flops are not proper footwear and sometimes sneakers are too hot. I like simple and comfortable shoes- not trendy monstrosities.

     Maryam Nassir Zadeh VS tan sandals
    (ideal footwear above, but I need more support than that). I like my shoes to be as simple as possible.

    I like to see women in bare feet. It makes them look sexy!
