Summer Footwear Trends

Summer is (almost) here, and guess what? Your footwear game needs just as much attention as your holiday playlist and BBQ skills. Whether you’re heading to the beach, catching flights (not feelings), or simply soaking up the sun in your local park, the right pair of shoes can take you from “meh” to “mate, where did you get those?” faster than a melting ice cream cone on a hot day.

At Mainline, we’re all about getting you sorted for every sunny-day scenario. With free UK delivery on orders over £40 and more legendary brands than you could shake a flip-flop at, we’re here to make your summer and your shoe rack sizzle.

 

 

Here’s our guide to summer footwear that’s ready for anything:

Sliders: The Holiday Heroes

Sliders are basically the sweatpants of the footwear world—incredibly comfortable, effortlessly cool, and perfect for laid-back days. Heading to the beach? Sliders. Need to nip to the pool bar? Sliders. Quick run to the corner shop for some sun cream? Yep, you guessed it.

Brands like Nike, Adidas, and HUGO are bringing serious style to these summer essentials. Think bold logos, vibrant colours, and cushioned soles built for comfort. Pop them on with swim shorts and a plain tee for the ultimate no-fuss summer look.

Oh, and did we mention how easy they are to pack? Just slide them into your weekend bag, and you’re good to go. Literally.

 

 

Trainers: Your Everyday MVPs

For the days when you’re clocking up steps instead of catching rays, trainers are your summer ride-or-die. Whether you’re exploring city streets, hitting up a festival, or just meeting mates at a beer garden, trainers give you that perfect balance of style and comfort.

With big hitters like New Balance, Ralph Lauren, Tommy Hilfiger and Lacoste on our shelves, you’re spoilt for choice. Go for crisp white trainers to nail that clean, minimalist vibe, or make a statement with bold, colourful kicks.

Pair them with slim-fit jeans or tailored shorts for a look that’s sharp but doesn’t try too hard. And if your festival goes from sunshine to muddy mayhem (classic British summer), grab a pair of retro-inspired trainers that’ll still look good even when splattered with half of the beer tent.

 

 

Flip-Flops: Barefoot’s Better-Looking Cousin

Flip-flops are the OG of summer footwear for a reason. Lightweight, easy to wear, and just the right amount of breezy. Planning an afternoon on the sand or a spontaneous BBQ in the garden? Flip-flops bring the chill without sacrificing style.

We’ve got examples from heavy hitters like Calvin Klein and Tommy Hilfiger that bring understated luxury to this summertime staple. Pair them with smart shorts and a short-sleeved shirt for a beach-to-bar look.
