Summer Guide 2025: what shoes to wear when it's hot?

Summer is coming, and with it the need for shoes that are both stylish, breathable, and practical. Whether you're in the city, on vacation, or simply looking for everyday comfort, choosing summer shoes is essential.

Here is a complete guide to help you make the right choices.

☀️ 1. Preferred materials

When it's hot, your feet need to breathe. Natural materials like soft leather, linen, or canvas are ideal. At André, many models are made with lightweight materials that limit sweating while ensuring good support.

👡 2. Open sandals or flip-flops: your comfort allies

For very hot days, nothing beats a good pair of women's sandals. Choose models with adjustable straps, ergonomic soles, and a sleek design. Mules, on the other hand, are perfect for a more casual look.

To try: the selection of flip-flops & mules for women — lightweight and stylish essentials.

🏖️ 3. And for vacation?

By the sea or in the countryside, sandals remain a safe bet. Easy to slip on, lightweight, they fit into your suitcase without any problem. André offers revamped models with reinforced soles for comfortable walking all day long.

👠 4. Should we say goodbye to heels in summer?

Not necessarily. The trick is to opt for pumps or sandals with wide, stable heels. They provide style without sacrificing comfort. For summer evenings, it's the perfect combo.

👟 5. What if I want to stay active?

Do you walk a lot? Choose lightweight sneakers made of canvas or mesh. They provide good support while allowing your feet to breathe. Ideal for active days, even in the sun.

❓ Our customers often ask:

What shoes should I wear at home in summer?
Flat ballet flats or soft mules are the best options. They offer lightness and ease for indoor use without overheating.
