Sometimes there's a shoe so easy and cool, it earns a following even bigger than the statement heels or printed pumps we ogled on the runways [1]. This season, it's the mule, and they're practically everywhere.
We really do mean that — you'd be hard-pressed to find a designer who didn't show the easy slides on their runway or a street style star who isn't rocking them IRL [2]. And why not? With walkable block heels, chic crisscross bodies, and a bright crop of colors, they're so much cooler than the clogs from your childhood. Scroll through and take your pick!
