Comfortable Shoe Styles For Summer

Is there any better time and place than summer in Australia? Long days at the beach, alfresco dinners and late nights with friends, road trips down the coast… it’s everyone’s favourite time of year!

And to have a proper Aussie summer, you need the proper Aussie footwear to do it. Gone are the winter boots and professional shoes – out come the laidback thongs and sandals.

If you’re looking for comfortable shoe styles this summer, the team at Forbes Footwear have you covered. Here are some of the trending comfortable shoe options for this summer, so you can put your best foot forward coming into silly season!

Birkenstocks

Durable, reliable and incredibly comfortable, there’s a reason why Birkenstocks have been a popular type of sandal since 1774… yep, that’s almost 250 years of high quality sandal making. Birkenstocks come in a variety of colours, styles and materials. But their main attribute, which separated them from the sandals of the time in the 18th Century, is the arched sole which supports and contours the foot. This gives Birkenstocks wearers supreme comfort, making them one of the most comfy shoes styles for summer.

Ascent Groove


Suffering from plantar fasciitis? 1 in 10 people will experience this irritating foot pain at least once in their life. But thankfully, there are a range of stylish and comfortable shoe styles for summer which are specially designed to counter the effects of, and help your recover from, plantar fasciitis. The Ascent Groove is a recovery thong which provides soft, contoured support so that your feet can fully recover from plantar fasciitis without compromising your summer activities.

Archies


Flat thongs may be cheap and convenient, but everyone knows that they’re awfully harsh on the foot if you’re wearing them for long periods of time. That’s where the fabulous Archies women’s thongs can create a huge difference. As the name suggests, they feature a supporting arch which provides excellent comfort for daily wear in summer. More than a lifesaver, they’re a foot-saver!
