slip-ons

No tying needed

Slip-ons are shoes designed to be put on without lacing, buckling, or fastening—you simply slide your foot in.

The category includes loafers, mules, and certain sneakers or dress shoes with elastic panels.

Slip-ons are favored for convenience, whether you're rushing out the door or passing through airport security.

I keep a pair of slip-ons by the back door for quick trips to the garden.
