Spring/Summer Footwear Alternative: Driving Shoes

Driving Shoes

Driving shoes are characterised primarily by their unstructured moccasin style body, heel support and the rubber stud-like grip on the sole. They are traditionally – if you had yet to guess – designed to be used for driving, with features such as the heel support and additional grip aiding in this pursuit.
The driving shoe represents a perfect example of summer footwear. It’s lightweight, making it great in the heat and comfortable to walk in. The slip-on nature makes it easy to slip on and off at the beach or airport security; the comfort factor comes in handy again here when you’re cooped up in an aeroplane for a number of hours. Finally, and most importantly, they’re stylish and can help step up those lazy summer outfits that we can all be a bit guilty of when the heat begins to stifle.
