The Riverside

All About The Riverside

Austin has beautiful weather about 8 months out of the year. But for 4 (sometimes 5) months, it can be hellishly hot. Soul-crushingly hot. Luckily, it also has plenty of places to cool off: lakes, rivers, swimming holes (for swimming), watering holes (for boozing), shady trails, and more.

The footwear of choice for the blistering months (and most other months) is the flip-flop. As all locals know, having the wind on your toes makes it feel 10 degrees cooler. You can wear flip-flops pretty much anywhere and not feel out of place. The nicest restaurant in town. College graduation. A board meeting. Your arraignment for that little misunderstanding down on 6th Street about the legality of pedicab surfing.

Alvies flip-flops are meant to bring the Austin vibe to anywhere in the world. They’re made with premium leather so they look and feel great all day, no matter where they take you. And they’re built to last through countless float trips, music festivals, hikes, and nights out.
