Looking for pretty, comfortable sandals

80 replies

WaterWall22 · 23/04/2024 12:59

Inspired by the current Birkenstock thread...

Can anyone help me find comfortable sandals that are also pretty? I want to be able to walk in them so would like proper soles but not typical walking sandals. I have Saltwater sandals but find them too flat to be nice looking with skirts or even that comfortable.

I quite like the look of these https://olukai.co.uk/products/waiau-womens-leather-slingback-sandals-silver?currency=GBP&variant=45276290187554&utm_medium=cpc&utm_source=google&utm_campaign=Google%20Shopping&stkn=fe172cebc4b5&gad_source=1

I'm not familiar with the brand and not sure they'd be comfortable enough for longer walks in a city/on cobbled streets.
Some of the Fitflop ones look quite nice too but perhaps a little bulky.

Any ideas?

@DailyEnergyCrisis i like the look of these but I have narrow feet. Do you know if they are particularly wide? Thanks!

I've just picked these up, it's like having nothing on my feet

Where are these from?

Another vote for Fitflop Gracie! My feet are the bane of my life but I can walk miles in these. I have them in bronze and gold and toying with buying a tan pair even though I don't really need them!

I’ve truly messed up my algorithm by clicking on some of these links.

These! FitFlop Leather Flatform Fisherman Sandals - are the most comfortable sandals I have ever, ever worn. Bought them last summer - then did a long trip to Spain and then NZ this summer so walked miles on all sorts of terrain and they are incredible - like you have nothing on your feet - so light. I also got loads of compliments including being stopped by women asking where they were from (that never happens normally!) Even with all the miles, they are like new (but I still went and bought the black pair as well)! They look mostly sold out now - and I can't even see the black version but they might come back in stock as it is so early in the season - if you see them, don't hesitate!

I also ask the same question but with the added issue of EEEfit due to numerous foot breakages! Cannot be heeled either!

most EEE sandals that fit the billl granny would refuse
to wear!

I know this brand. It's good and the shoes are very comfy. These sandals are far more attractive than many of the other suggestions posted on here, looks like you want something a bit dressy. I say go for it, and if they don't meet expectations you can return them.

MarmaladeSunset · 01/05/2024 05:14

Haven't read full thread so maybe someone has already said this. I saw recently that Saltwater have introduced a new sandal with a more comfortable sole.

WaterWall22 · 07/05/2024 14:31

I ordered Pikolinos to try and they arrived today. They feel brilliant! Thank you for helping me find this brand!

The Carvela are gorgeous! A bit like 1970s Clark’s. V cute

DownWithThisKindOfThing · 13/05/2024 17:43

I would also suggest some of the Riekers, some are hideous but some are nice

gocompare · 13/05/2024 17:49

These will be too sparkly maybe but I am wearing these at the moment and I love them.

They are very comfortable, quite soft. They are called Orson.
