Sandals that are comfortable without looking frumpy?

I'm in the search for some summer sandals. Wide feet, do a lot of walking. Fancy something that looks pretty, but will be comfortable and maybe have a bit of bounce in the step without being old woman sandals.

Birkenstocks don't suit my feet, can't walk in them.

Love flip flops but they hurt my lower back if I wear them for long.

Fancy something easy to slip on and walk all day if needs be.

Gabor I go half a size down to 4.5, earth spirit is a true 5.

I bought some from new look last summer. I was so impressed with comfort and durability. I still love them. (In my 40s here).

Try Palmaira Sandals - very comfy and stylish too

Earth Spirit have some nice ones. Ordered mine on eBay for £27 yesterday with free p and p. They arrived this morning. Very comfortable cushioned sole. I've walked in them all day- very impressed.

I have over 60 pairs of shoes but suffer terrible back and foot issues. Last year on a friends suggestionI bought some crocs sandals and it was the best £20 of my entire life. I managed to walk all around Corfu town and didn't have a single issue. In fact I have worn them every single day since and they have replaced my slippers indoors as they are just so bloody comfy. I did have the strappy ones somebody posted above but they gave me blisters rubbing on the back of my feet. But I am replacing my others with as many colour ways as I can find as they are my forever shoes. And they can go in the washing machine and come up like brand new every time
