Is it possible for me to wax poetic about any kind of product outside the landscape of cozy footwear? Earlier in the year, while we were still braving the dredges of winter, Suicoke’s Pepper-evab moccasin became my obsession. As soon as the weather began to turn, instead of opting for a heavy-duty sneaker, or something with a color palette resembling an Aperol Spritz, I decided to diversify my wheelhouse and look for an open-toe counterpart to my growing collection of mules, clogs, and mocs.
It turns out the answer to my prayers was right under my nose. I had recently noticed a pair of slides in my parents’ apartment that didn’t quite grab my attention at first glance, but after trying them on and feeling the bottoms of my feet melt into their soles, I knew I needed Chaco’s Chillos slides.
