Festival season is right around the corner!
Whether you’re headed to the desert or to the city, one thing is for certain: festival season is BACK. There’s nothing we’re more excited for than to dance with our friends to our favorite songs and our team has rounded out some of our top picks for 2022’s festival season. Let us know which pair you’ll be rocking this festival season!
Style Name: Play in “Tropic Come Together”
Allie: I’m a hardcore sneaker girl when it comes to festivals (especially in the desert), but I love how this classic sneaker adopts on a fun and unique print! In my mind, the Play sneaker is perfect for any festival look this season!
Style Name: Clay in “Blue Dazy”
Karen: Gotta protect those feet and be comfy all day at a festival. I love that Clay gives me a little height and style!
Style Name: Alfie
MJ: Sometimes at festivals you just gotta kick off your shoes and feel the grass on your toes! That’s why I’d rock Alfie, the perfect slip-on sneaker.
Style Name: Tia
Nikol: Tia has to be my pick. I love this simple, yet elevated flatform for festival season! The ridged outsole gives them a cool look while adding a nice padding for all that walking and dancing!
Style Name: Maddi
Ashley: My go-to sandal for festival season is Maddi! The two-tone braid elevates the entire sandal and looks super cute all while still being super comfortable. Plus the adjustable strap is an added bonus for me!

Clay in Blue Dazy

Leigh Rope
“Leigh Rope gives me all the Spring vibes! I love the jute rope look and the flatform style is so in!”

“This Spring I’m all about the Zelie sandal. I love the braided straps and the square toe. I’ll be wearing these with distressed straight leg jeans and a white tee – my uniform in the warmer months!”
Bethy
“I love the strappy design details on the Bethy sandal. The 1” micro-wedge heel is a great addition for us shorties and the cushioned footbed allows for all day comfort.
Zailey
“I love the Zailey sandal for spring because it’s an easy way for me to elevate any simple outfit and I’m obsessed with the cute buckle detailing.”

Go behind the scenes of our spring and summer photoshoot in sunny Palm Springs!
Another season, another photoshoot! The Blowfish Malibu team headed out to the legendary Saguaro Hotel in Palm Springs, California, for a colorful shoot for our Spring/Summer 2021 collection. The hotel is full of vibrant pops of color, flashy hues and ultra saturated tones. Our new spring and summer 2021 collection follows suit. It is super bright and colorful, and filled with tie dye and hot hues. So, obviously the Saguaro made perfect sense! (Want to see some of the new product? Keep scrolling for a little peek!)
Our team spent two days there shooting for both Womens and Kids back in November, 2020. So, that gave us a ton of time to prep and get assets ready for the upcoming season. We can’t wait to share what we’ve been up to – so take a look!
So, what did you think of our Palm Springs photoshoot? Let us know! For more Behind the Scenes looks at what we’re up to, follow us on Instagram and check out more stories on the Journal.
All eyes on the Rioo shoe.
Summer is just around the corner! And with that in mind, Blowfish Malibu Kids is excited to introduce you and your little one to the Rioo shoe. Available for Toddlers and Kids, this sweet sneaker is made of a lightweight EVA material. Its feather-weight and flexibility will allow your little one to adventure through the season with ease.

4Earth 4 spring – second edition!
In March of 2020, we officially launched our 4Earth collection, our first line of shoes EVER with an upper composed of recycled plastic. The collection consisted of two of our most popular styles, and despite everything that happened in 2020, we were incredibly proud of this accomplishment.
The best part of 4Earth? One dollar for every pair sold is donated to Oceana, an organization dedicated to cleaning up the world’s oceans. We can definitely get behind that.
4Earth is BACK for Spring 2021, this time with an additional style, Play4Earth. Our Balla4Earth also gets a chic update with a fun leopard print upper that goes with everything and anything in your closet.
Scroll through for a look at how some girls are wearing these fresh additions to the collection for Spring, and head over to our website to learn more about the 4Earth project.

Take a look at the sneakers that we’re dying over this spring.
Springtime calls for sneakers. When you’re ready to break out of boots and booties, but can’t quite commit to sandals (or maybe the sun hasn’t got his hat on yet) – sneakers are the go-to.
This spring things have been quite different, and maybe not as adventurous as we intended, but we wanted to share our top picks for the season – plus we’ve loved seeing how our community styles our faves.
Tie-Dye is everywhere this season, and we aren’t the exception. Style Play comes in multiple colors, but we’re in love with the pop of color from the tie-dye this spring!

Marley is a fan fave. This sweet grey color is so versatile and perfect for spring. Pair with denim and a simple tee for an effortless California look.

If in doubt, a plain white sneaker goes with everything. Including casual dresses! We’re in love with style Fruit – they are so versatile. We’re convinced it goes with everything in our wardrobe!
