Festival season is finally here! You're probably busy planning who you want to see, booking plane tickets and hotels, and putting together the perfect outfits that balance style and comfort for those fun-filled weekends. Whether you're going all out with your festival look or keeping it more relaxed, choosing the right footwear is one of the most important decisions to make, especially with all the walking and dancing in store. The last thing you want is sore feet, blisters, or injury ruining your experience.
The frost is melting, the sun is shining, and it’s officially the first day of spring. It’s time to pack up the thick sweaters and winter boots and step into something a bit more suitable for the weather. We’ve rounded up our absolute favorite styles for spring that will work with any event, outfit, or vibe.
Today is National Shoe the World Day, a day that shines a light on the importance of footwear. For many, shoes are a fun and fashionable accessory, a way to show off your personality and stay up to date with trends; for others, proper footwear is important to prevent injury, pain, and discomfort. But not everyone has access to proper footwear, and we’re doing our part to help fix that. Hansen’s is proudly committed to giving back to the community, and each year, we donate over $50,000 in shoes as part of that commitment. This year, we’re continuing our work withSoles4Soulsand partnering with them to donate new and gently used shoes that would otherwise end up in landfills.
Spring has sprung (almost), and that means it’s time for a new pair of shoes. Hoka has you covered with their brand new Hoka Mach 6. These are their lightest, most responsive Mach to date. The streamlined collar foam reduces bulk and cuts weight, making them perfect for jogging and racing. Fine-tuned for extra energy return and with speed-focused design details throughout, they deliver the comfort and performance you need to walk, run, hop, and skip into the next part of the year.
Finding a shoe that combines what’s in style with what’s comfortable can feel impossible sometimes, so Birkenstocks’ continued presence at the forefront of fashion has been a blessing. These classic shoes have made a name for themselves thanks to the comfort provided by their meticulously-designed insoles – a testament to thoughtful design.
Looking for a new go-to sneaker? Hoka’s Arahi 7 just dropped, and it might be our new favorite shoe. These surprisingly-light stability sneakers aren’t like any others on the market. The biggest upgrade from the Arahi 6 is the new upper which we think not only looks better but also adds some great tech and comfort features. The lacing and zonally engineered, flat-knit upper allow your foot to stay down in the middle while having extra room in the toe box, creating a comfortable step. The lacing is also more adaptable with narrow feet, so they’re comfortable for all foot types. If you have a wider foot, we would suggest trying the Wide width since the upper can feel a bit more narrow, especially for longer distances.

In honor of Small Business Saturday, we want to give thanks to all our wonderful customers who made the decision to shop small.

UGGs have been around for years, but thanks to social media and celebrity sightings, they’re currently taking the world by storm. Whether you’re new to the cozy footwear and loungewear or a longtime, loyal wearer, there might still be some things you don’t know about UGGs.
If you’re looking to get your first pair, you might be worried about sizing. If you’re ordering them online, remember that Classic UGGs run a bit big – if you wear a half size, size down. If you wear a full size, stick with that – you can always try a smaller size if you need to. The Fashion styles and Rain boots are true to size so go with your regular size.
Whether you’re looking for everyday shoes or cozy slippers, UGG has been the go-to brand for trendy and timeless styles for over 50 years.

UGG helped to define the California lifestyle – their extreme comfort, soft interiors, and indoor/outdoor fluidity made them the perfect multifunctional shoe.
