Summer is nearly upon us and with the clocks due to change later this month we're entering shorts season.

So, what should the dashing man about town be wearing on his feet to accompany said shorts?

Flipflops, Fivefingers, Sports Sandals, Brogues, Scuba Fins, Wellies... the choice is seemingly endless.

Plus fours in the country, perhaps.

What town are you talking about? If it's some market town in the fens go with the wellies.

If it's Ely then shorts are out. It's John Deere one-piece overalls FTW, teamed with wellies and a fetching base-ball hat. (Slack-jaw and extra digits optional) ๐Ÿ˜ฏ

deck shoes with a chino short
flip flops if you are on the beach
espadrils are always good
woven brogues will be in this season if you are feeling brave

Damn. Not too far from Ely, so might need to dig out my overalls.

What are the collective's thoughts on the use of desert wellies to accompany shorts? Yay or nay?
