The slide slipped back into the public consciousness last summer, after finding a powerful advocate in the high-fashion crowd. Unbelievably comfortable, endlessly versatile, this sandal is here to stay. Worn with loose tailoring and soft jersey basics in the city, or with a floaty midi dress on the beach, the possibilities are endless.
These are undoubtedly a style that have divided the world. I wrestled with the decision to add a pair to my summer wardrobe for quite some time (I have never looked back). So whether you’re on the fence, or if you’re looking to expand your collection, Deichmann has a wide variety in stores and online to choose from – with prices starting from just £9.99, it’s definitely a chance worth taking!
Metallics are a summer staple – great for showing off a newly-developed tan, they tend to be extra eye-catching in the sun. These rose gold slides are not only in the season’s favourite metallic colour, with gorgeous buckle detailing, but also feature the sleek but casual sport-inspired white sole that offsets the cork footbed so strikingly. These are an absolute no-brainer.
It’s no secret that animal print is my favourite thing ever. These beauties combine crossover strap detailing with a glorious leopard print, and a thick, sporty sole to embody the ultimate ‘look at me’ summer slide.
If however you are a traditionalist, the minimal slide will appeal. The single thick strap and matching sole is both functional and fashion-forward. For a more conservative look, this style is available in black – perfect for alternative workwear.
