VOLLEY’S MENTION IN BUPA’S GUIDE TO THE PERFECT SHOE FOR TRAVELLING
Volley’s new look has been catapulted into the limelight by Bupa Travel Insurance, which has listed us as one of the best brands for browsing and raddest shoes to wear abroad! The article hand-selected the top ten shoe designers and brands, before interviewing them to find out their nominated styles for different locations around the world.
Volley's forward-thinking flats have long been a perennial favourite amongst the surfer and skater communities of Australia. Originating as a simple white canvas sneaker often seen gracing the feet of tennis and squash players, our brand has taken a new direction, evolving into a designer shoe emporium, recently making headlines as one of the top ten shoe brands and designers for Aussies about to jet set around the globe.
Our shoes are easy to wear and pack neatly into your suitcase. Our new luxe twist on chilled-out designs will allow us to hit more of a premium space in the market, and we’re excited to take you along for the ride. With a recent addition of upscale suedes and leathers in our latest flat footwear collection, Volleys are now a leading choice for a stylish Roman getaway, as nominated in the recent article, ‘Style Guide: The Perfect Designer Shoes for Travelling’.
‘As one of the bulkiest items in your luggage some tough decisions are in order.’ Bupa Travel Insurance asks, ‘Are three pairs of sneakers too many?’Not when they’re a selection from our latest concrete jungle collection. With different colours and textures, these everyday sneakers are playful reworks of the classic volley, making them the perfect addition to any sightseeing jaunt. We’d suggest you pack as many as possible, but when challenged to nominate one specific shoe, we simply had to recommend the high-leap Hairy Suedes – which we recommend you wear to Rome!
‘The simple, fuzzy hi-tops were made for stomping around the ancient cobblestone streets; they’re the type of shoe you can venture off the beaten path and get lost in,’ we told Bupa. Our carefree spirit, which is also synonymous with the Australian way of life, lends itself to wanderlust. Getting lost in Europe, is the best way to hone into your surroundings, architecture, and the way a city or town feels, which in turn provides you with the best ideas.
Even though Volley will always reference its (awesome) history, for the first time in decades the brand is releasing some exciting new styles and designs this August for the SS/16 collection. In addition to the launch, we have some exciting upcoming collaborations with edgy apparel brands, musicians, and artists. Stay tuned for the future of Volley!
