Duchess Sophie takes to the seas in chic alternative to trainers - we all need these comfy and stylish shoes in our collection

The Duchess of Edinburgh smiles as she arrives at Guernsey harbour.

Duchess Sophie’s espadrille flats are her new favourite shoes and are a chic and comfy alternative to trainers.

If there’s one type of shoe the Duchess of Edinburgh can’t be without in the summer months it’s espadrilles which are likely in many people’s summer capsule wardrobes too. Versatile and chic, they add an instant summery feel to an outfit and whilst Duchess Sophie’s beloved espadrille wedges have had plenty of wear so far this year, her new favourite design is espadrille flats. They are an elevated alternative to your best white trainers and she was spotted wearing a gorgeous pair of flatform TOMS when she travelled to France for the 2024 Olympics.
