Who says you have to compromise comfort for style?

The Spring/Summer 2025 runways were the first hint that our love affair with heels might well and truly be over. Now it's official, if sales of another polarising shoe - the clog - are anything to go by.

At the Roksanda show, models walked down the runway in Fitflop mules, part of a collaboration between the two labels. Whilst over at Chloé, the brand continued its love affair with the silhouette by adding a colourful PVC strap. While this may have raised a few fashion eyebrows, numbers don't lie.

Since the shows, sales for the leather clogs have risen, with searches reaching 800K, and many of these styles are becoming available to shop for now.

You might wonder how to style them for the transitional weather, but you needn't think too hard. This is an 'ugly' shoe that is surprisingly versatile and fits within plenty of spring outfit formulas. It can work with artful dresses and strong tailoring - see the SS25 runways for inspiration - jeans and an oversized shirt, or even your favourite loungewear.
