Slipstop animated kids' shoes and €16 Knoten sandals lead summer 2026 fashion trends

Slipstop introduced its Spring/Summer 2027 "Animated" children’s beach shoes, featuring characters such as Flamingo "Tiny", Shark "Finzy" and Jellyfish "Bonbon". The models combine playful 3‑D details with a patented non‑slip sole, quick‑dry material, UV‑50+ protection, elastic fit and Oeko‑Tex certification for safety and comfort.

The "Knoten" sandals, priced at €16, have become a summer 2026 footwear staple. They offer a flat sole and slip‑on design, with wide structural straps that cross in a decorative knot. Their natural‑textile look mimics linen or bast, pairing easily with denim shorts, dresses or linen pants for a relaxed holiday style.
