One thing is certain, when it comes to summer 2024 shoe trends, comfort is essential. Flat shoes triumph on the runways, from Miu Miu to Hermès, Valentino, and Alaïa. Ballet flats are making a comeback, while flip-flops, long relegated to beach days, are becoming chic. And we can’t forget  gladiator sandals, favorites of the 2007-2009 era, re-emerging at Rabanne. We also saw the modest Mary Jane and its opposite, the not-so-subtle dad sandal. So, which ones caught our attention? Here’s a selection of 5 summer 2024 shoe trends that will keep our feet on the ground all season long!

The mule: 4 knots by Zyne

Among the runway offerings from Prada, Valentino, and Chloé, which feature slightly bulky mules, we prefer the delicacy of the model from the Moroccan brand that highlights the craftsmanship of its artisans. With a decidedly chic hue and an intricate shape, Zyne’s 4 Knots will undoubtedly be our summer companion.

The Ballet flat: GG strap by Gucci

Chanel, Fendi, Tory Burch, Proenza Schouler, and more, on mostcatwalks,  ballet flats were a prominent summer 2024 shoe trend. Ultra-flat, futuristic, and openwork, designers are making it do pirouettes. As for us, we land on our feet with this ultra-vibrant Gucci model to energize our summer looks.

The flip-flop: Tanger by Yves Saint Laurent

Elevated by Chanel this season, flip-flops leave behind their role as last-minute suitcase saviors to perfect our summer looks.  Whether heeled (Burberry, Coperni) or flat (Miu Miu), we bet on Saint Laurent’s purist version, right in the season’s favorite animal print.

Price: approx. 7200 DH.
Address: 44 bis, rue Point du Jour, Casablanca / 1, avenue Bab Jdid, Marrakech.

The sneakers: Court cage by Lacoste

Forget the sobriety of previous seasons and the minimalism of white or black. This summer, we want color—orange, lavender, mint, red, and more. In short, opt for enthusiastic shades for a mood that will definitely not keep you grounded!

Price: 1399 DH.

The clog: HardCrocs by Balenciaga

Among summer 2024 shoe trends, there are two schools of thought for clogs. One honors the ’70s, like at Coperni, Isabel Marant, and Etro, and the other is the urban futuristic version, like Balenciaga and JW Anderson. We lean towards the radicalism of this model, which admittedly goes over the top.
