Ahead, find some of the most fashionable pool slides for summer—and they’re all totally waterproof!
Pool Slides
The summer season is all about sandals. After all, you’ve gotten that warm-weather pedicure, a little bit of a tan, and you’re ready to rock an arsenal of open-toe sandals with reckless abandon.
…but what if you’re headed to the beach?
When your days are destined to be filled with oceans and sand, pool slides are the only way to go. But you can do so much better than those nail salon rubber flip flops (sorry!). You know you can.
Pro Tip
😎The best part is, it isn’t hard to find them once you start to look. Plenty of brands and design houses have crafted some of their most popular styles, from slides to gladiators; espadrilles, and more.
Waterproof materials aplenty to make sure you’re just as stylish on the beach as you are off.
