As ever, confirmation of British summer requires a glance at the calendar rather than to the skies.
You can dress for the season from the ankle down at least, with Rockport’s nautical collection. Your own boat isn't required and, thanks to their unlined uppers, nor are socks.
Some special shock dampening tech inherited from Adidas sees that these deck shoes won’t ruin your heels. We weren’t convinced, until we slipped a pair on ourselves. We've still not slipped out of them.
