Mules and flip-flops, summer footwear
For women, however, mules have the advantage of being more chic and feminine than flip-flops. Mules are generally made from noble materials such as leather or wood, unlike flip-flops, which are made from rubber. Leather mules, with wooden or cork soles, are easy to slip on and can be worn for summer evenings or garden parties. There are also orthopedic models, a comfortable shoe to wear at home. Clogs are an alternative to mules. They evoke the artisanal, gypsy or bohemian style, and are generally made of wood. They're just as easy to slip on as mules, and comfortable too when the heels aren't too high.
