Finding a comfortable, versatile and stylish outfit to celebrate Independence Day can be a challenge.

With comfortable construction and an easy slip-on design, Ethan is the perfect companion to a day of swimming and sunning. With floral swim trunks, a short-sleeve button up and classic aviator sunglasses, Ethan gives your rubber flip-flops a break and gives your beach look a stylish upgrade. Now just don’t forget your SPF.

If you prefer to spend your holiday on solid ground, Ethan is the perfect shoe for a backyard barbecue with lawn games, pounding the pavement to your favorite bar, or trekking to the stadium to watch your favorite baseball team. Wear Ethan with navy shorts and a jersey or with khaki pants and a striped t-shirt to complete your casual summer look.

Feel like wearing your patriotism on your sleeve – and the rest of your outfit? Ethan makes sure you’re already in the Independence Day spirit with a navy blue upper and white soles while you just add your own splash of red. Pair Ethan with white jeans, a red polo shirt and a blue braided belt for a relaxing afternoon party.
