Coolest big-arse clumpy sandals for £100ish

[BuffySummersReportingforSanity]

I require a pair of this year's big clumpy black sandals to wear as my summer shoes. I'm wanting edgy and cool, and also flat and walkable.

Which ones would you get? Could go up to £100 or so, I reckon.

I love my dm voss - I think the newer ones with the stitching are even nicer!
They are really comfortable and I get loads of wear out of them.

Arket it is then - I'm not that big on "vegan leather" anyway.

I was surprised Cos didn't have anything in this style this season.

The second Arket pair. Avoid all the DMs.

Nothing wrong with DMs! Arket ones nice but less big ass clumpy and more gladiator

Courtesy of this thread, I now have these following me round:

I quite like them...

Ooh those Clarks ones are lovely

I have dm sandals. I am fashion.

Me too @Seesawmummadaw Not part of the fashion crowd though sadly...

Nor me ellapaella . Just off to Clarks...

I tried these, which are maybe a bit too big-arse and clumpy.

I would have kept them though if the strap ends hadn't curled up; they were very comfy, not too heavy

Well looks like I'm going to be frowned on by the fashion crowd cos I love DMs and have ordered some of those sandals.

Not really sure why we should care what a bunch of people in the fash biz dictate to us anyway - bugger that!

@nevertrustaherdofcows those look really nice though the soles are a bit thick for me, I would probably get vertigo!

DD (20) has those Doc Martens in the first link and finds them extremely confortable. She doesn't follow fashion and just has her own style.

They're the ones I ordered @RampantIvy though in leather and through the Dr Martens site as they have more in stock. Glad to hear they are comfortable.

For those considering the Clarks ones, do it! Have been wearing them all week - very comfortable, bit of height, bit of chunkiness - love them.

Hahahaha ds’s mate is in fashion (darling) and she wears the dm sandals. She’s young enough and cool enough for them.
She’s a designer.
I love them but fear at 45 and slightly overweight is just look silly in them.

@JemIsMyNameNooneElseIsTheSame: are the Clarks fairly lightweight?

@UnicornMadeOfPinkGlitter do it, don't be scared!

I'm 50s and chubby but I've worn DMs all my life. Comfort without the old lady vibe! Maybe I do look a bit mutton but past caring!

Really looking forward to getting my DM sandals now, no doubt DD will be like this

Thank you Toolazy - have snapped those up

Also some hideously expensive Marni ones that have just gone into the Matches sale

Am hoping the HM ones win

The H&M ones are definitely not my thing I need a back strap for one thing, I'm way past wearing shoes that won't fucking stay on my feet.

I hope the Arket ones are comfortable. Will report back as/when I order them.

@OnGoldenPond that will be 15yr old dd’s face as well. I’m going to order them on ASOS. I can always return them if I don’t like them after all then. Thanks for the encouragement.

@EllaPaella I’ve admired your other thread, you are the crowd!

I bought similar from H&M and they are ace

I have various things from koi and despite the clunky look, they are very light and comfortable. Haven't tried their sandals yet though.
