Inspired by Britain’s iconic pebble beaches and colourful beach huts, Young Soles’ new s/s 26 collection captures the charm of the great British seaside. Expect to see the return of the brand’s bestselling sandals, shoes, sneakers and boots, reimagined in a palette that celebrates summer’s easy-going energy.

Led by a feature colour of cornflower blue, natural cork features as the standout material of the season. As always, comfort meets craftsmanship, with all sneakers now featuring removable elastic laces and cork insoles, offering breathable, supportive style for growing feet.

“Some of my happiest memories are of childhood holidays on the British coast – barefoot on pebbled beaches, chasing the tide and running in and out of beach huts,” says Louise Shill, founder and creative director of Young Soles. “This collection is a love letter to those moments – playful, practical and full of nostalgic charm.”

New styles

New s/s 26 styles to watch out for include Bunny, a playful slider sandal with bunny-ear tie detail set on Young Soles’ brand-new cork sole, and Fern, a casual leisure sandal with rip-tape and buckle fastening finished with a subtle fern punch detail for a touch of natural charm.

 

 

Rhonda is the brand’s first barefoot sandal. Designed for natural movement, it includes secure rip-tape and buckle fastening. Meanwhile, Rowan marks the return of the jelly. Made from recycled PVC and natural hemp, this sustainable update on the classic Jelly sandal features a cork insole for added comfort. Finally, Brooking is the new 90s-inspired cup-sole sneaker.
