Forget flip flips and sandals this summer and opt for summer shoes for men that keep the everything below the ankle hidden from the world.
Sweltering daytime temps and balmy nights are a nightmare for feet. Especially for men who sweat top to bottom, puddles of perspiration soaking their socks.
For those guys into flip flops and sandals, it’s easier to stay cooler down below. Flip flops aren’t for every guy. From bros with bad ankles, to those born with toes that scare young children, there are plenty of men who keep their feet covered from May to August.
Here are eight killer pair of summer shoes for men that won’t cost and arm and a foot.
