With heat wave temperatures permeating throughout much of the U.S., it’s hard to beat a good pair of breezy, breathable sandals.
Whether you’re kicking back in the sand with a cold one or roaming the city streets — or perhaps a little bit of both — you’ll need a pair of sandals that is both comfortable and durable enough for the long haul.
Instead of spending your hard-earned cash on multiple models, consider picking up a pair that is equipped for leisure but also tough enough to last through many summers to come.
