DM sandals

Considering some of these for summer; the sort with an almost closed toe which I've heard might be reasonably fashionable this summer, which I'm delighted about as I'd rather show minimal foot (mine are horrid)

Does anyone have some? Do they take as much wearing in as their boots? I've heard mixed reviews re quality as well, so alternative suggestions welcome too.

Why would you inflict them on your feet in the first place?

These vs these??

I'd go for the Birkenstocks every day of the week.

I'd rather go for these:
Womens Black UGG Goldenstar Strap Sandals | schuh
than these
Womens Black Dr Martens Blaire Sandals | schuh

They look softer to wear and wouldn't rub as much on your feet.

Would something like this work for you?
Womens Black schuh Tinsley Closed Toe Chunky Mule Sandals | schuh

I have DM Blaire in cream. Bloody love them. They did take a bit of breaking in but nothing like the boots do.

Because once you've worn them in, DMs are sturdy and comfortable and last for years.

I do like Birkies and have had a few pairs of Arizonas over the years...but I don't find them particularly nice looking. Maybe I've just worn them too much.

Thanks for the links! I will have a look

I'm also interested in how wide they are!
I love chunky sandals and I'm also thinking of a change from Birkies OP!

That's really useful @Purplecatshopaholic. I love the Blaire ones!

The DM sandals are much nicer than the Ugg equivalents linked above.

I am planning to wear a white pair this summer, à la Portia from White Lotus 😎

I love the white ones, but think I'll go black. I'm too pasty for white sandals I think
