Vionic Hattie: Your summer travel buddy

Flip flops are the default footwear for summer, but you can't wear them everywhere. If you need a stylish yet hot weather-appropriate shoe, check out the Vionic Hattie.

What to expect from the Vionic Hattie

This lace-up walking shoe features a canvas top with soft fabric lining. These fabrics keep the interior airy while you walk on the beach or explore the city.

For comfort, the insole is designed by a podiatrist. It mimics the contours of the foot, hugging the underfoot and keeping it supported while you walk. Meanwhile, the EVA midsole softens foot landings so you can walk for miles without issues.

As for the outsole, the rubber bottom prevents you from taking a nasty spill when you're walking on indoor and outdoor surfaces.

Nice to know

The Vionic Hattie has the American Podiatric Medical Association (APMA) Seal of Acceptance, meaning this trainer promotes good foot health.

The insole can easily be swapped with custom orthotics.
