I have Fitflops or Birkenstocks which are great.

No worse than a salt water isn’t a ringing style endorsement but I need to be comfy...mostly. Any Birkies which could work? I’d like a metallic

Yeah, no they can't ever look ok. Sorry. Agree they do look comfy though.😁

Just googled Saltwater sandals, nooooo their hideous, don't go there.

Ha I quite like them.but also should I add so does my 79 yr old mother. She eyes them up every single time we go to Sainsbury’s but she can’t fit her hammer toe in them. That probably tells you all you need to know

Oof. The saltwater I saw were so flat...and not me. Is that a relief I feel?!

Newer style fit flops are nice these days. Though not cheap.

I'm 38 and I think they're totally fine. I oukd make sure I had a nice dark glossy pedicure with them to avoid a frumpy look but other than that, I've seen loads worse

I like them. I am ashamed of myself. I too am seeing them with a white tucked in t shirt and slouchy crop jeans.

They’re nicer on a foot but the photo I took is outing so can’t post! Aren’t fit flip all toe post? I cannot bear a slider - my foot needs holding in but I’m not ready to wear totally sensible footwear...despite it being uk holiday

I opened the link expecting far worse. I think they’re fine, sure not exactly high heeled sexy type thing but for everyday wear perfectly fine. They look very comfortable.

Honestly OP, just wear them if you like them. No one will give a fig

I've got these.....not worn them yet but loved them when I tried them on. I'm also thinking dark glossy pedicure tanned feet which I'm slowly achieving. I don't think I'm particularly frumpy so I say go for it!!

They're bloody hideous.

No. Just no.

Ouch. Surprised how much hatred there is for the comfy sandal! I need something cool (temperature) and comfy to hike around in for my holiday. Note: Not actual hiking. Just a lot of waking around
Or should I just wear my trainers (whole other thread) Maybe I’ll start one. “What shoes on UK holiday chasing after children? “ or “AIBU to want feet without blisters yet not look 90?”

Are they really hideous? I’m losing all sense of style so. Any recommendations as to what would be better? I was hoping for a pair of flat brown sandals too!

FitFlops without toe posts!

I don't madly dislike your first pair though.

They aren’t hideous unless you’re wearing a flowery two piece with them.

They're lovely Bert

Try fitflops, there's lots of styles without toeposts and you can usually find a discount code with a quick google! Perfect for plantar fasciitis too.

I think they are ok and the eyelet detail make them a bit more fashionable imo.

Revolting

I have seen worse though

I think saltwater sandals are pretty.
