Summer is here, and it is time to neatly pack the heavy-duty leather sneakers and shoes into their designated boxes, and bring out the lightweight, fun, colourful slip-ons. Now, we don't know about you, but we're seeing Toms making waves on social media and announcing very loudly that their full collections are now available to shop. But if you want to browse all similar options before you swipe the card, here's a list!
Love Toms? Here Are 6 Brands That Make Beautiful Lightweight Espadrilles
Marks and Spencer
₹2499
If there's one thing that Marks & Spencer and Toms have in common, it is quality assurance. While not the most comfortable options for footwear, M&S has collections that embody summer and ease. We love these classic espadrilles because they will never go out of style.
Hoofs
₹1199
Trust us to find you a pair with the exact look and feel of Toms (and a third of the price). These are lightweight, colourful, and so comfortable. They're also made of canvas, which makes them easy to clean and maintain.
Neeman's
₹2699
There is NO way, that you haven't seen a Neeman's ad on Instagram. We're happy to report that they ARE worth being targeted by Instagram ads and giving in to the impulse of buying a very nice and comfortable pair of shoes. Luckily for us, Neeman's also makes cotton slip-ons that can literally be popped into a washing machine and they're as good as new.
Rivir Shoes
₹1299
If you haven't been introduced to the general coolness of Rivir, let us change that. The brand started off with very cool printed canvas sneakers, and eventually ventured into espadrilles as well. Their prints are super summery, but we love the khaki style ones here.
Birkenstock
₹9990
Shop On
I will perish before I stop recommending Birkenstock to every human I ever encounter. Let happiness into your life if you are uninitiated to the unadulterated comfort the brand comes with. The best part is that they have a slip-on variant as well. Shell out a bit more, because the pair will last a really, really long time.

VANS
₹5591
The OG of all slip-ons, Vans belongs on this list. The comfort is unmatched, they last very long, and always land on the sole (the sorcery makes for great entertainment). From solid colours, to prints and patterns, and some very cool partnerships with brands like Disney, Vans has something for everyone.
