We just got our Coachella wristbands in the mail today (yeew!), and to celebrate, we’re starting a short series covering the “festival essentials” (see pages 10-11 of your Coachella Weekend Guide – if that happens to be your flavor of festival that is). Starting from the ground up, let’s talk festival footwear.

In case you were unaware, the Welcome Guide points out that at a festival, you’ll be standing, walking, and dancing for a long time. We know, no doy, right?
