Discover comfy clogs, trusty wellington-boots, and perfectly decorated summer sandals to keep you looking (and feeling) as great as your garden.

Comfortable Clogs

Practical, durable, and super comfortable clogs are the kind of shoes that make life easy, simple to slip on with no fastening required. Clogs are great to pop by the back door so you can easily nip out into the garden for a spot of planting or weeding.

Here are a few of our favourites clogs we like to wear when gardening …

Floral Work Clogs

These wipe-clean clogs are the perfect choice for busy feet! Loved by doctors and nurses, they’re technically a work clog as the coated upper makes them easy to clean, perfect for muddy moments in the garden!

Added bonus? These gardening clogs have a cushioned leather insole that will mould to fit your foot, so they’ll give you a personal and comfortable fit every time you wear them.

Fly Flot Clogs

Fly Flot are the number one choice for gardening clogs, they’re a best-selling brand loved for their comfortable support that include a self-moulding footbed and shock absorbing soles.

You’ll feel the benefit of the comfy leather insoles as soon as you slip them on and their lightweight and flexible sole means they’re great for when you’re kneeling down to plant or stretching to deadhead. 

Plus, they’re available in a choice of sun-bright colours … need we say more?

Wet Weather Wellies 

It wouldn’t be a British summer without a splash of rain, but don’t let a shower dampen your time spent in the garden. Remember, if there’s no rain there would be no flowers! 

A trusty pair of wellingtons are what every gardener needs, water resistant and durable they’re the dependable boots you need to keep your feet protected in all weathers.

Wellington Ankle Boots

Designed with all the water-resistant qualities of a wellington, these short wellies (aka wellibobs) are cleverly disguised as Chelsea boots. They cover the whole foot and even have two elastic panels so they can be pulled on and off with ease.

The gripped sole of these wellies will keep your feet planted firmly on the ground wherever you are in the garden, plus they’re easy to wash down should you get stuck in the mud.

Lined Wellington Boots

You can’t go wrong with a classic pair of wellington boots, whether you’re tending to your flowerbeds after the rain has stopped, or slipping them on for a dog walk, you need a pair that will keep your feet dry and comfortable. 

These wellies are perfect for the person who gardens in all seasons, with a stylish and water-resistant design, they’re lined with cosy faux fur to keep you feeling warm if the temperature dips. 

Sun-Ready Sandals

No garden would be complete without a sunny spot for relaxing, it’s time to sit back and watch your garden grow … 

Leather Wedge Mules

The rainbow-inspired shades of these wedge sandals make them a warm-weather winner. Easy to slip on, super stylish and effortless to wear, these sandals are perfect for garden parties, glamorous picnics, or just because.

You’ll love the luxury soft leather and cushioned footbed, plus, they’ll give a boost to your height and the super lightweight wedge heel makes it easy to walk on the lawn or over gravel.

Stretch-Fit Sandals

Summer can’t come soon enough, and while we await the glorious rays of the sun, we need the comfortable sandals that we’ll be living in all season long. If you were to choose only one sandal, this might be it. 

The clever stretchy design of these flat sandals mean they’re a dream to slip on, and they’ll ensure your movement is not restricted with the natural bend and flex of your foot as you walk. 

When the weather heats up, our feet tend to swell which can mean that shoes can quickly become uncomfortable, but not with these sandals! The soft, stretchy straps will form around your feet, so no more pinching, just happy stylish feet.
