It’s amazing how we’re never quite bored of millennial pink footwear, considering how insanely overexposed we are to this one particular hue. Hop on your various social media sites and you’ll inevitably (and yes, we do mean inevitably) chance upon something, anything, that comes clad in a pastel pink or shot on a beige-y rose backdrop. And if it’s any further indication how obsessed we are with the colour, we present to you part two of the millennial pink series (read part one here), with even more pretty-in-pink footwear that you’re going to lust over really soon.
Today’s agenda: Slides.
Everlane The Pointed Slide in Rose
US$145, available on everlane.com.
Evidently, this pair was made with elegance and minimalism in mind, considering how these pointy-toed slides by Everlane don’t look like your usual over-the-top furry footwear. Instead, these are decked out in full genuine Italian leather, with a straight-to-the-point design that’s sharp and fuss-free. Best part? These come in a multitude of monochromatic pastel shades, but as you guys already guessed — we have our eye on this beautiful milky pink one.
Everlane The Form Slide Sandal
US$98, available on everlane.com.
When a brand gets a double mention in an entry, it’s a big tell-tale sign that we truly do love their offerings. Everlane’s taken your classic pool slide and upgraded it, with their signature Italian leather so that everything looks a lot more chic, and a lot more sleek. The insole comes with a supportive contoured footbed that forms to your feet — and hence the name.
KENZO Pink Logo Beach Slide Sandals
US$89, available at ssense.com.
Now that we’ve got the minimalist picks out of the way, folks with bolder tastes need to catch a whiff of these Barbie-approved beach slides by KENZO. The rubber sandal makes for the perfect beach footwear, and with that bright fuchsia strap and baby pink sole screaming for attention, you can be sure that these are gonna get you spotted from a mile away.
adidas Originals Pastel Pink Adilette Slides
US$24, available at ssense.com
What we really appreciate of this pair by the brand with three stripes is the subtle emboss detailing that’s on the strap, which adds that bit of texture to an otherwise rather predictable design. The always stylish Adilette slides now come in a summery peachy-pink hue that’s likely to get lots of wear on lazy Sunday brunch dates.
Nike Benassi Solarsoft 2 in Prism Pink / Black
€29.85, available on inflammable.com.
When there’s adidas, you can always expect Nike — and the latter sure did not disappoint. Clad in a fan-favourite pastel petal pink hue, this one sandal is specially engineered to keep your feet cozy and comfortable. The built-in grooves on the insoles is combined with the brand’s Nike Fuse technology for a cushiony and pliable base that moulds itself to the shape of your feet. Top it all off with the Nike swoosh going right across the entire slide’s strap.
Reebok Core Slide in Shell Purple / White
€24.85, available on inflammable.com.
Okay, so this might not be pink per se, but no one ever said no to a pretty lilac colour, right? Plus, it’s Reebok’s first foray into the world of slides, so no matter how you look at it, this new launch is still something worth covering. These sandals are clad in a monochromatic style, so you can expect them to look very minimalist indeed. Peer closer, and you’ll notice that lilac you see does have that hint of pink in it.
FENTY Puma By Rihanna Bow Slides in Silver Pink
$130, available at all authorised Puma retailers.
Fashion genius Rihanna has the best taste, ever. Transitioning from her iconic fur slides that basically made slides a thing — and now to her current satin squeeze was pure gold in itself. The latest FENTY Puma collection has the prettiest selection of footwear, with majority of them boasting girly satin bows. The silver pink Bow Slides are possibly what we love most from her collection, and that’s on top of knowing that the ribboned trend was greatly inspired by Marie Antoinette.
UGG Royale Slides in Baby Pink
$130, available at all UGG stores.
There’s no denying it, these are effectively… fur slides. Y’know, ones that look uncannily similar to those from Rih’s first FENTY Puma collection. But upon inspection, you’d notice the difference — the strap of these slides are covered in luxurious Toscana fur that makes for a less compacted look compared to the OG fur slides. Essentially, fluffy.
Kylie Lips Slides in Pink
US$40, available at kyliejennershop.com.
Those who can’t seem to get enough of Kylie and her booming beauty line might want to consider adding yet another Kylie Cosmetics item to their collection, though this time, nothing makeup related. Alongside her recent camo launch, the younger Jenner also debuted beach slides — which pay the ultimate homage to her brand’s cosmetics offerings. Clad in a punchy candy pink, these slides have the Kylie lips logo screened on, for the true Kylie fan.
