During the winter months, we hardly give it a second thought. After all, when the forecast is looking less than promising, all it takes is pulling out a pair of boots to get through rainy days without a second thought.
But in summer, the question inevitably comes up: What shoes should you wear when it rains?
Especially during a season like this, when we haven’t made the wardrobe switch yet and sandals are still front and center in our shoe closets, finding footwear that can protect us from the rain without ruining our outfits isn’t always easy.
Fortunately, there is a simple way to make sure you’re never caught unprepared: keep a few strategic styles on hand.
Since Wellington boots (beloved by style icons like Sienna Miller and Alexa Chung) consistently rank high on the list of must-have shoes worth keeping around, investing in at least one pair—whether tall or ankle-length—to wear on rainy days is always a smart move.
If you don’t have any formal events on your calendar, boat shoes or leather sneakers are always a good choice. On the other hand, if your plans call for something a little more polished, opt for a versatile style such as chunky-soled loafers or Mary Janes with rubber soles.
On days when you’re only dealing with a light drizzle, almond-toe pumps, preferably with a kitten heel, can also work.
Are you always wondering what shoes to wear when it rains but have never quite found the answer? We’ve rounded up a selection of styles that should make the decision a whole lot easier.
