Reclaim
the summeR
sandal
There’s only one
choice of fashionforward
footwear
this season
ther than the obvious
fashion faux pas of
wearing them with socks,
there are not many
sartorial guidelines to wearing
sandals this summer. Having said
that, a decision on the purpose for
which you intend to wear them and
what you wear them with is crucial.
Some sportier styles lend
themselves to rough terrain and are
built for walking, such as Skechers’
high-tech ‘Journeyman’ Safaris, while
others are ideally suited to getting
wet, like G-Star’s webbing and rubber
sandals. For inner-city dwellers,
sandals are making an on-trend
footwear statement, dressing
down tailored trousers as a fresh
alternative to trainers.
Woven and plaited leather in warm
brown shades; aged burnished
finishes and thong or multi-strap
demi-gladiator styles are the most
popular. For those of you looking for
a pair of sandals that tick all of the
right boxes, you should head to Gap.
