Summer is the perfect time to showcase beautiful footwear. From short and sweet trips to the Hamptons to once-in-a-lifetime vacations, travel-friendly shoes should be at the top of your weekend packing list. Choose the right shoes for any occasion this summer and enjoy comfortable style all season long.
Travel Outfit Ideas for Summer
Heading out of town this summer? Add vacation sandals to your summer weekend trip packing list. Dress up your travel outfit with flats and loafers like pantsuits or jeans and blouses. Travel-friendly shoes like comfort Jacks, sneakers, or a cushy pair of shoes from our Comfort Collection take you from the plane to the plaza without stopping to change your footwear.
If you’re planning to travel during the Fourth of July, add sandals or mules from the Jack Rogers Americana Collection to your summer weekend trip packing list. These patriotic shoes coordinate with your best red, white, and blue summer outfits, perfect for any Independence Day occasion.
Footwear Designed for Style & Adventure
When it comes to essentials for a beach weekend, look no further than Italian-crafted footwear. These gorgeous sandals and flats are crafted with soft Nappa leather and durable rubber soles, ensuring they’ll embrace your feet with every new adventure. Leather sneakers or espadrilles are the perfect addition to beach-to-brunch outfits, whether you’re walking down the boardwalk for a coffee or spanning the globe for a café in Barcelona.
For nighttime style, slip on embellished heels and wedges for an evening on the town. These high-quality, high-fashion shoes elevate more than your height—they add a touch of vintage fashion wherever you walk.
Sandals for Special Occasions
Celebrate those special summer moments with authentic Jacks from Jack Rogers. Sparkling metallic Jacks complement any formal summer ensemble from a flowy maxi to a sleek jumpsuit.
Intricate details and quality craftsmanship make these delicate-yet-hardy sandals a beautiful complement to any celebratory outfit, whether you’re having sunset drinks on a cruise or attending a beachside summer wedding.
And speaking of weddings, the Jack Rogers Wedding Collection has everything you need to say “I do” in the right shoe. Embroidered white sandals declare your new steps into life as a wife, while floral wedges and bow-topped kitten heels highlight the lovely details on your wedding dress. Bridesmaids and flower girls can also dress their best with matching sandals or slingbacks with a formal, feminine flair.
Accessories That Work Overtime
Accessorizing doesn’t stop at your feet. Extend your footwear’s fashion sense into the rest of your outfit with preppy style staples crafted in Italy. Vintage sunglasses evoke 1960s vibes embodied by European actresses and models, while state-of-the-art Italian jewelry brings out the metallic hues in your shoes and ensemble.
Finish your outfit with artisanal handbags and hats, perfect for a shopping afternoon or brunch with your best friends. Add uniquely artisan-designed scarves to your weekend packing list for a bright, dramatic flair that showcases any summer ensemble.
Light Packing Tips for Weekend Trips
Creating a weekend packing list allows you to travel light. But how can you keep your suitcase minimal while maintaining maximum fashion? Follow our light packing tips on what to pack for a weekend getaway.
-
Combine style and comfort. Eye-catching, comfortable footwear like flats and loafers let you move around easily without worrying about pinched toes and blistered heels.
-
Create a capsule wardrobe. Choose several staples that you can mix and match, rather than several complete outfits.
-
Keep your footwear flexible. Versatile footwear like kitten heels look great with a number of outfit choices, including skirts, jeans, shorts, or formal dresses.
-
Focus on travel-friendly shoes. Leave the flimsy shoes at home and opt for durable, comfortable, and reliable footwear that gets you from A to B without problems.
-
Wear your bulkiest shoes while traveling. Add comfortable boots and booties to your travel ensemble for classic style (and to free up space in your suitcase).
Weekend Wanderlust, Perfectly Packed
Once you’ve got a reliable weekend packing list, jetting off on a short adventure is easier than ever. With the right vacation sandals and travel-friendly shoes, your weekend can focus on fun rather than your feet.
