Slowly but surely we’ve seen more flats making their way into the Princess of Wales’s shoe collection. She’s still a big fan of heels but has reached for her Boden Nya loafers multiple times in recent months and I can’t help wondering if behind-the-scenes she still has some of the flats she wore back in the day too.
Kate was never going to go sailing or climb to see cliff-top views wearing court shoes, so in 2011 she swapped them for boat shoes in Canada. The Prince and Princess of Wales were on their first royal tour as a married couple and she stepped out in these Sebago Bala shoes, indigo jeans and a Barbour utility shirt for a visit to Blachford Lake in the Northwest Territories.
