If you haven’t seen Native Shoes yet, take a gander and witness the solid concept that is NATIVE Shoes…

Get serious! With it being in the cut of summer and back to school is happening you need a new pair of shoes, mind you some people don’t think sandals are appropriate for occasions, cover the little piggies but you wanna look fresh as well, waterproof for pool, beach or water sessions… NATIVE SHOES are your answer to all these dilemmas…

Also, keep in mind once I saw these shoes I was stoked living in Arizona and as much traveling as I do I need a lite, waterproof solid shoe, insert NATIVE SHOES…
The one piece molded foam design is so creative utilizing a technology debuted but not fashionably utilized UNTIL NOW!

I caught a couple pairs of the Natives, check it…
The Miller seems to be inspired by an Off the Wall since 66′ silhouette & The Jefferson is reminiscent of a shoe that rhymes with Buck Saylor

Here’s the Jefferson in Jiffy colorway aka Navy

Here’s my current fav, Miller in Pylon aka bright orange….

Here’s a statement about the shoes from the NATIVE SHOES ABOUT page, right on!
Inspired by classic, casual silhouettes, but made with the lightest and most comfortable material available, Native Shoes are the best of both worlds. Footwear for the future done in the style of everything we’ve ever loved about shoe design. You can slip them on for a quick stroll, throw them into your backpack for a day at the beach or keep them on hand for après. Our aesthetic is relaxed, flexible and active. Native Shoes is footwear for anybody, anywhere, anytime.

Now some close up shots and detail shots of the shoes…

Box artwork “Keep it Lite” plus the slider cabinet boxes are solid for the closet…

By the way, shhhh but at Agenda I saw some of these shoes in smaller sizes, wink wink, for the lil ones!
Yep, your kids could be rocking some lil Natives!

Here’s the perfect scenario- poolside, beverage and Native shoes… Thanks Native…
The Miller’s in Pylon even match NOS Energy Drink
