Every Birkenstock design promises to contour seamlessly to the foot’s sole, providing endless hours of comfort in wear. Part of the German label’s Pull Up line, the Mayari sandals feature a unique double strap Birko-Flor vamp – which is faux-leather by the way – that crosses over at the toes. Set on the signature EVA sole, it’s engineered to be practical, but we think it’ll look great with a pair of white jeans too, cropped at the ankles of course.

With its famously comfortable soft cork footbed, the 250-year old Birkenstock brand is enjoying a new wave of popularity, with its Boston suede clogs, Madrid and Arizona sandals stealing the spotlight thanks to cosy shearling and big buckle iterations.

At its freshest, monochrome dressing is less about head-to-toe, swatch-perfect outfits and more about exploration of colour nuance. An uninterrupted line created by common and proximate shades, makes for stronger and more-polished silhouettes, yet affords a looser approach to mixing textures and cuts; call it a formula for the non-formulaic.
