Shoes to wear on holiday

Thierry Rabotin's style between Mediterranean views, sea-view dinners and timeless walks

July is the month of freedom, of departures and desires that take shape starting with the choice of destinations and - why not? - also of how we want to experience them: nothing is ever left to chance, from the choice of accommodation to the places to visit. From the occasions we want to attend to the company we will keep.
Even our outfit begins to take shape, at the same time as our imagination precedes us on holiday. So, thinking about shoes: what to wear, or rather: what can I really not give up? Style or comfort?
Here's the word that comes to our aid, in this creative doubt: versatility.
When you go on holiday, every inch of space counts, as does practicality and the ability to combine with different looks: from relaxing on the beach to aperitifs at sunset, to excursions to the most picturesque villages. Thierry Rabotin's hand-crafted shoes are designed to accompany you with elegance in every context, thanks to selected leathers, accurate workmanship and a lightness designed to make you move freely.

Here are six key models to take with you on holiday and our suggestion on choosing the destination and the best way to match them, imagining that we, like you, are immersing ourselves in dreamlike atmospheres without renouncing the made-in-Italy style we love so much.
