Women's slip-ons
What it is?
Slip-ons are a new trend in the world of shoe fashion, which are slip-on sneakers with rubber soles. Slip-ons have a fairly wide shoe and do not rub, unlike hard shoes, which is especially important in the hot season, due to the fact that the legs can swell.
With a dense rubber outsole that is highly pliable and can flex well, the hyper-comfortable slip-ons provide good cushioning with the asphalt, which helps reduce stress on the feet and joints. The dense fabric of which the upper is made is also quite breathable and does not create excessive heat for the legs, which also has a beneficial effect on their health. In general, we can say that slip-ons are extremely positive and healthy footwear from the point of view of health.
Slipons - a bit of history
The existence of slipons began in 1977, they came into the world, being considered fairly light sports shoes, and were intended for surfing. Over time, they gained more and more popularity, thanks to their creator - Paul Van Doren.
Initially, Russian youth called slip-ons walking slippers.
About ten years ago, they were popular only among representatives of various subcultures, but today these shoes are common among absolutely all people of all ages and genders.
How to choose?
When choosing slip-ons, first of all, you need to pay attention to the softness and plasticity of the sole, so as not to experience inconvenience when walking. Also, an important aspect is the quality of gluing or stitching the sole, since slip-ons with a stitched sole will last you much longer. And of course, it is necessary to choose shoes in size so that the foot is comfortable and corns do not appear when walking.
Color solutions
The variety among colored slip-ons is simply amazing, as more and more unusual models have recently appeared on store windows. This season, bright colors are in trend, such as pink, bright blue, gold, as well as prints, content of bright colors.
In addition, calm tones, such as black, navy blue, beige, and white, will always remain fashionable.
Fashion trends for women's slip-ons

And close the top three slip-ons with various prints. The patterns on them can be completely different, from unusual patterns in oriental style to print with the American flag.
On a thin sole
Slip-ons with thin soles look like tennis slippers, sneakers, but this does not make them less comfortable.
Thanks to the thin sole, they look light and petite, and with the right things in the image, they can even look feminine.
Suede
Suede slip-ons require an extremely careful attitude, since scuffs can appear on the suede fabric very quickly, which completely ruins the look of the shoes.
Solid dark suede slip-ons will perfectly fit into a business style, because outwardly they look almost like strict ballet flats.
From the grid
Models with mesh fabric, in combination with regular canvas or neoprene, allow the leg to breathe and avoid unpleasant sensations and charms. These types of slip-ons are more popular for active people who walk a lot and spend the whole day on their feet, as well as for sports.
On a wedge
The usual slip-on sole is already quite dense and comfortable for walking, it's hard to imagine that it could be even thicker. But the designers of the development team of this type of footwear came up with a special wedge, which in its thickness looks like two ordinary soles.
It is worth noting that it is surprisingly soft and very comfortable for walking and even running, it will not cause inconvenience to your legs, and you will feel like in slippers. In addition to its functionality, it also has a number of aesthetic advantages, as it looks incredibly stylish and fashionable.
Lacy
Lightweight slip-ons, made entirely of openwork fabric, look attractive, but they should be handled with care, since such a fabric is not very durable.
