And guess what? Those braided tie-up sandals are on the list, and they might even be the easiest ones to rock. The secret is the super soft and braided suede straps. They’re honestly more gentle on your skin than those stiff faux-leather sandals we all have. Your ankles will be happy all day — even with the adorable tie-up detail. They’re great for vacation, too. You can wrap up the flexible straps instead of squishing and wrinkling stiff leather ones.

There are also so many shoes that are comfy because they’re cooling. There are plenty of lightweight sneakers and even ballet flats that have mesh ventilation.
