What Types of Men's Shoes Are Available?

City Beach stocks men's footwear across sneakers, skate shoes, casual slip-ons, sandals, boots and dressier styles. The main differences are the shoe's upper construction, fastening, sole design, heel shape and intended use.

The range includes low-top sneakers, high-top shoes, mid-top sneakers, skate-inspired designs and casual lifestyle footwear. City Beach carries styles including adidas Samba ADV, Vans Old Skool, Nike SB and DC Shoes Anvil sneakers.

Browse men's high-top sneakers, low-cut sneakers and mid-top sneakers to compare different ankle heights and silhouettes.

Men's thongs and sandals include traditional flip-flops, toe-post sandals and other open-footwear designs.

City Beach stocks thongs from Havaianas, Reef, Quiksilver, Rip Curl, Billabong, Kustom and Salty Life. Styles include plain rubber thongs, printed footbeds, different strap widths and selected leather or synthetic designs.

Thongs feature a strap between the first and second toes, making them different from slides, which generally have a band across the foot.

Men's Slides and Sandals

Men's slides have an open-back construction and generally feature one or more straps across the upper foot.

City Beach carries slides from adidas, Nike, Puma, Quiksilver, Reef, Crocs and Lucid, including selected adidas Adilette designs.

Other sandals feature different strap arrangements, buckles or toe-post construction. Compare the strap design, footbed and sole before choosing between styles.

Men's Crocs and Clogs

Explore Crocs footwear, including Classic Clogs, sandals, slides and other clog silhouettes.

Clogs generally have a more enclosed front than traditional thongs or slides. Selected Crocs designs feature ventilation openings and movable heel straps.

Crocs come in different colours and designs, with construction and sizing varying between styles.

Men's Boots and Timberland Boots

Men's boots include lace-up, mid-height and selected ankle-height designs.

City Beach stocks boots from Timberland, Dr Martens, Globe, Flyte, Jacks, Kustom and Skylark. Available styles include Timberland 6-Inch Premium Boots and selected chukka and lace-up designs.

Compare the upper material, ankle height, fastening and sole construction when choosing boots. Waterproof features are product-specific and should only be relied upon where stated in the individual description.

Men's Loafers and Dress Shoes

For a different everyday or occasionwear silhouette, explore men's loafers and dress shoes.

City Beach carries styles including Dr Martens Adrian Tassel Loafers, Globe Liaizon Shoes, Timberland boat shoes and Vans Suede Skate Loafers.

Loafers generally have a low-cut slip-on silhouette, while dress shoes are a broader category that includes different structured footwear designs.

Men's Slip-On Shoes and Slippers

Men's slip-on shoes include casual styles from HEYDUDE, Vans and other brands.

City Beach carries HEYDUDE Wally canvas shoes and other casual slip-on designs. Compare the upper material, fastening and construction when choosing between styles.

For indoor and casual home footwear, explore men's slippers, including styles from Jacks, Skylark and Salty Life.

What's the Difference Between Sneakers, Skate Shoes and Slip-Ons?

Sneakers are a broad category of casual footwear with a covered upper and sole. They include different lace-up, slip-on and sport-inspired designs.

Skate shoes are associated with skateboarding and often feature particular upper and sole silhouettes. However, not every skate-inspired sneaker is designed for technical skateboarding.

Slip-on shoes are distinguished by their fastening construction. They are designed to be put on without traditional lace fastening, although some styles feature decorative or elastic laces.

The differences between these shoes depend on their construction and intended use rather than the brand alone.

Check individual product specifications for materials, lining, fastening, care requirements and any stated performance features.

How to Choose the Right Men's Shoe Size

Start by measuring your foot from the heel to the end of the longest toe. Compare the measurement with the size guide for the specific footwear brand.

City Beach stocks men's shoes using different size formats, including US and European sizes. Selected Crocs and Havaianas products use combined or brand-specific sizing.

When choosing sneakers or boots, consider toe room, foot width, the upper construction and how the shoe fastens. For thongs and slides, check that your foot sits appropriately within the footbed.

Two products with the same labelled size may fit differently because of their construction and brand sizing. Always review the individual size guide rather than assuming sizes are interchangeable.

How to Choose Men's Shoes for Different Occasions

For everyday casual outfits, sneakers and slip-on shoes offer different covered-foot options. Skate-inspired sneakers can be styled with relaxed denim and graphic tees, while classic low-top sneakers suit a range of casual clothing.

For beach days and holidays, explore thongs, slides and sandals. Consider the product's materials and intended use, particularly when choosing footwear for wet conditions.

For cooler weather, boots offer a different silhouette from sneakers. Compare the ankle height, material and any stated weather-protection features before purchasing.

For dressier occasions, explore loafers, boat shoes and other dress-shoe styles. Consider the event's dress requirements before choosing casual or formal footwear.

How to Style Men's Shoes with Different Outfits

For streetwear-inspired outfits, pair skate shoes or sneakers with men's jeans, including baggy, relaxed and straight-leg styles.

For casual weekend outfits, combine sneakers or slip-ons with men's shorts and bottoms.

Thongs and slides can be paired with board shorts, walk shorts or relaxed summer outfits. For an everyday look, combine neutral footwear with men's T-shirts, polos and casual shirts.

For dressier outfits, try loafers with chinos or other tailored casual pants. Boots can be styled with denim and layered clothing.
