The indispensable accessory this summer? The sock tap! Hard to believe and yet … Footballer Antoine Griezmann, model David Beckham, and even Barbados singer Rihanna now proudly wear them at their feet!
In his song published on YouTube, which is close to 7 million views, rapper Alrima proclaims "even in tap shoes one is well dressed." New attraction, ephemeral trend? Today, many young people have been seduced by this trend. Although normally associated with the label "beau", the "tap" is loosely worn. This Sandal has its origin in a dance.? According to Le Larousse, it is rhythmed by "the heels and tips of shoe sandals, which are reinforced with a small piece of metal."
This summer, you can dance tap dancing or simply wear it with socks.
Strap, soldier and papyrus
If you are still not convinced and wonder what shoes to wear to be trendy on the seaside, we have made a small selection as well as an etymological decryption. The Tong, more familiar and accessible to all, will always and still be out on our beaches. The word comes from "thong" in English which means strap. This Sandal has a flange that passes between the toes, which will remind you of the redundant noise it generates. Anecdote, the Tong appeared in Egypt around 5500 BC, made of a simple rigid sole made of papyrus. It then migrated to China and Japan in the 20th century.
More classic while still chic, the swordfish will also be out in these fine days. Derived from the Occitan "espidi (l) hos" which means "splits sandals", it refers to the Basque shoe made of canvas with a sole made of woven hemp rope.
This reminds us of the traditional "Spartans" used in Rome by the soldiers. They had as their primary purpose not to burn each other under their feet on the cobblestones in the sun.
This summer, it's up to you to find a shoe to your foot!
