Summer shoes under $250 offer a fresh take on classic styles, combining ease with unexpected twists in color, texture, and shape. While the season’s essentials remain as timeless as ever, there are also bold choices: sculpted leather in soft, neutral tones, woven textures that add unexpected depth, and silhouettes that break away from the usual. These shoes don’t scream for attention; instead, they quietly shift the mood of your outfit, making even the simplest look feel new and considered.
