I am buying my first new pair of shoes in over a year!

[mindalina]

I am super-excited

I would like something summery and sandally I think, but not flip flops cos they shred my feet and not crocs cos they're vile

Any recommendations for something easy to slip into, super comfortable and not too sweaty?

Black and pink ones are lovely

Dear god is that a consensus I see? On Mumsnet?

Black and pink ones it is then

I love the red ones - I want them but my feet are too bloody big

Bah, I knew someone would come along and ruin the consensus

Glad to hear they do stay on your feet. Are they uncomfortable to wear in? I have really wimpy feet I think.

Could I suggest these? They are extremely comfortable, don't fall off my feet, and you can get them in either red, tan, black or cream. I personally think they look really nice - they look great with cropped linen trousers. Others may think otherwise - peoples' tastes differ so much!

Aww thanks Stella

Hoppybird thank you for the suggestion but have deffo made my mind up to go for the pink birkenstocks now, pleased to hear they're so easy to wear.
