Practical, easy to slip on, slides have become essentials, even the must-have of summer. From Yeezy to adidas, from Salehe Bembury to Nike, there are now many versions for your beach outings. Discover which slides to wear this summer!
Adidas Yeezy Slide
If there is one silhouette that has become a must-have for summer, it is the Yeezy Slide! With its avant-garde and minimalist approach, this timeless classic has entirely won over sneaker culture in recent years and continues to be spotted widely.
With its algae-molded upper, it provides unmatched comfort thanks to the technology developed by Yeezy. And while the adidas Yeezy Slide usually comes in a neutral tone like the iconic "Bone" version or the "Onyx" version, the avant-garde label delivered a splendid electric blue that elevates this trendy and futuristic slip-on.
If all three versions have already released and you still have not copped your pair, they remain available at many retailers. Additionally, if you are wondering how Yeezy Slides fit, know that the Yeezy Slide runs small. So do not hesitate to go up half a size.

Adidas Adilette 22
Having suddenly appeared following the success of the adidas Yeezy Slide, the Adilette 22 has gradually carved out its place within sneaker culture, notably thanks to its 3D construction and natural, renewable materials. And while the three-stripe brand initially delivered minimalist colorways, the label draws inspiration from topographic maps illustrating Mars expeditions and the dimensions of another planet.
Thus, the adidas Adilette 22 "Bright Orange" and the "Court Green" version ensure a cosmic journey for those who wear them. And the futuristic approach does not stop there, as they are partially made with sugarcane, offering a step toward a more sustainable future.
Released last April, these two colorful versions are still available at a price of 65 euros on adidas. Additionally, know that many other colorways are still in stock.

Nike Air Max 1 Slide
Facing strong competition, the Swoosh brand reinvents the iconic design of its Air Max 1 for a rather unexpected result! Crossing its technology with the slide format, it is with a Nike Air Max 1 Slide "White Black" and a Nike Air Max 1 Slide "University Red" that Nike's designers offer a 2.0 version of the iconic pair.
For this occasion, this interpretation features a mix of numerous materials along with its Air Sole Unit. Additionally, a half-swoosh refines this new model.
Released last March, the "University Red" version is still available on Courir at a price of 80 euros.

Salehe Bembury x Crocs Pollex Slide
Given the success of the Crocs Pollex Clog range, Salehe Bembury reinvents his iconic clog shoe for the summer season, brilliantly translating his grooves inspired by his fingerprint.
To inaugurate his first design, the designer opted for a sparkling orange he calls "Citrus Milk", enhancing the slide made entirely of EVA foam. And to balance function and aesthetics, the New York-based artist refines his slide with discreet and elegant co-branding. However, if you prefer a more subdued option, a "Burgundy" colorway is in the works and could drop this summer.

ASICS Actibreeze 3D Sandal "Black"
It is now the Japanese brand's turn to offer its own slip-on for summer! Combining style and functionality, ASICS targets both athletes and sneaker addicts, for a rather captivating result.
Unlike its competitors, the Actibreeze 3D Sandal forgoes a minimalist approach. Indeed, the Japanese running brand relies on a 3D printer to improve breathability and provide adapted comfort. Thus, it features a smooth and fluid construction similar to the cells of a beehive for a fresh and modernist look. However, a crumpled effect can be seen on the top of the pair along with a prominent logo along the quarter panel.
While this Asics Actibreeze 3D Sandal "Black" released on July 21, 2022, it is still available at certain retailers and remains an excellent choice for combining comfort and elegance.
