Men’s sliders have pulled off an impressive ascent to the top of many footwear wish lists. Once considered a purely functional choice, designer sliders have become a bona fide staple of the street-style scene, worn by men either alone or with socks, usually flanking a pair of cuffed sweatpants. Even easier to slip on than flip flops and more breathable than slip-on trainers, sliders take the comfortable footwear crown, confirming their essential status when it comes to relaxing at home, running errands or going on vacation. Our edit offers a style for every taste, from formal leather sliders from Bottega Veneta, and black sliders to statement-making designs like Gucci slides and Alexander McQueen sliders.
