Mesh Platform Sneakers with Hook-and-Loop Strap

Warm afternoons call for something light on the foot. A mesh upper lets air move freely while the platform sole lifts each step by three to five centimetres, so long pavements and market strolls feel gentler than they should.

The rounded toe leaves room across the front of the foot, and two hook-and-loop straps close in a second and adjust to your instep. Mesh lining keeps the inside cool, and the shallow, low-cut opening sits neatly below the ankle, ready for cropped trousers, denim or a cotton dress.

Choose clean white for everyday wear, or red, blue and pink when the outfit wants a brighter note. Sizes 35 to 43; the fit runs small, so take the next size up if you fall between two.
