“We have a style with perspex straps, which makes it feel like you’re almost not wearing anything. I like summer shoes where they disappear almost, so that you feel as if you’re barefoot. Quality is so important with shoes because they’ll last. I saw someone today wearing a pair of my shoes that were four years old, and that meant so much to me because it shows they’ve endured. Don’t invest in anything trend-focused or with tonnes of embellishment because you’ll lose that longevity.”
