Slink into Summer


These are an ingenious idea from shoe designer Jane Rafter. In effect you get two pairs of sandals for the price of one, as each sole comes with two sets of straps or uppers. It could be gimmicky but it actually isn't. They are easy to detach and reapply and have been made with such attention to detail that there are no hard bits to rub your feet raw. Instead, the sole is actually slightly cushioned and the designs are incredibly pretty. It helps that they come in a pretty silk bag. And now available at John Lewis, Slinks is due to hit the high street near you soon. For more information, visit www.janerafter.com.
