If you are looking for open-toed options this summer, then flip flops are a good alternative. However, for summer, instead of wearing plastic or rubber flip flops, look for leather ones that are sure to keep your feet comfy. Leather is a breathable material that can save your feet from irritation and excessive pressure.
