[ UPDATE: Voting is now closed. ]

It’s so warm today, that I searched my closet for something summery to put on my feet, and realized my warm weather shoes from last year are pretty darn thrashed. Time to pick up a new pair of espadrilles at our grocery store!
I’d love to know: Do you have a favorite summer shoe? Simple sneakers, flip flops, leather sandals, or espadrilles? Or maybe something else entirely? You can click on the check mark to vote for your favorite above.

Birkenstocks. No question. So comfortable and they really last.
I’m a Birkenstocks fan, too! In fact I was debating using a pair of green birks instead of the saltwaters for the image. : )
I don’t currently own a pair, but I’m sure I will again someday.
I agree! You could walk every way with Birkenstocks without getting any problems.
Flip flops, normally, but I recently got my first pair of TOMS and woah! They’re as great as everyone says!
Toms seem to be a popular choice for our traveling house guests.
I bought some saltwaters on Amazon this year and they are so comfortable and really holding up well. I like that I get the comfort of sandals but they look dressier than flip flops.
We do Saltwaters for our kids, but I haven’t tried them for adults. I sure love their color choices.
we do them for the kids too, but I got some last summer for myself and love them. they’re so cute. I have the bright yellow and they go with just about everything!
Flip-flops. Period. Nothing else. It’s Austin!
I grew up in the desert of St. George, Utah. And it was flip flops all summer long! I assume it still is.
Just ordered my Saltwaters after going several years without them. I’m so, so excited! Seeing my feet with Saltwater tan lines brings me joy.
Opening the box will be like greeting an old friend. : )
I got a pair of Toms espadrilles and love them. They’re super light and comfortable. I live in leather sandals throughout summer too. : )
I’ve seen the Tom’s espadrilles, but never tried them on. Glad to know you would recommend them!
Saltwater sandals – bright colors and perfect for splashing in the sprinklers at the playground!
I do love that you can get them wet.

Chuck Taylors + Gold Saltwaters = All I need until September!
I default to converse on many, many days. They are for sure the most popular sneaker in France right now.
Ballerinas or flats, the already beat up ones for the sand box and nice ones for errands and around town. :)
I love a good shoe system.
Have you seen the Marimekko Chucks? I am in love with mine!

So happy and summery! I hadn’t seen them and I’m so glad you shared the link.
I don’t think I’m capable of choosing a favorite summer shoe. I’m a fan of flip-flops, saltwater sandals, espadrilles, and strappy sandals. But for running around with my kids, the comfort and practicality of Saltwaters definitely wins out. We live in Seattle and are basically surrounded by water, and I love Saltwater sandal’s ability to function as water shoes. We often find ourselves at a local beach when that wasn’t part of the original plan, and if I’m wearing my Saltwaters I’m still prepared! Also, they seem never to age. I’ve had mine for at least a decade and they look about the same as the day I got them!
