What do you think of these sandals?

[CaptainHaddock]

I like chunky shoes and am not really one for high heels, but am looking for sandals to wear with skirts/dresses that are not flat.

Can I have some opinions on these, these, and these please?

Other suggestions gratefully received!

I think they're absolutely foul. Particularly the last ones. Sorry.

What about something like this?

or this?

Hmmm, thanks Bunny but I think they are both a bit too feminine for my Hobbit feet

fugly - what a great word Fio

sorry, don't like the ones you have linked to, but how about
these
these
these
They all come in different colours if you search around.
Any good?

I like the wedgey art ones. I've always wanted some art shoes, they always look really comfy.

I'm looking for something similar in red for the summer

Yes I like the Fly ones Ellie but not in white - how about these?

Am not in a desperate hurry to buy right now, but want some idea of what to look out for when the weather gets a bit warmer.

Cheappinkfizz - I have got some lace up art shoes and they are incredibly comfortable, but not exactly elegant!

I do like all of those, but only if you have tanned legs. First ones are the best I think.

I just bought these which I am hoping will be my heels-but-not-dressed-up sandals.

Lots more London fall into that category too I think

I rather like these and these

What about El Naturalista?

or Irregular Choice?

I no longer fear hell

Yes, those are nice. Fly are always comfy too
these are nice too

Oh come now tethersend surely they're not that bad???

Thanks for the links Poppity - I fear ankle straps are not for me sadly, ankles are way too chunky to carry off that look.

Less keen on those colours though Nellie.

Captain, those are minging.
The designer needs arresting.

As are the Fly monstrosities.

I'm keen on these Hasbeen t bar sky highs myself.

Re the Art ones, I like the black wedges (middle one). Quite like the first ones, wouldn't wear those colours myself - depends what suits you though.

I've actually got a pair like the third ones in plain black suede - they do look better on than in the pic though. Surprisingly, I don't find them all that comfy, they are a bit too stiff and unyielding.

What about wedge flip-flops?

Rocket Dog flip flops

Skechers flip flops

I hate sandal season, always seem to end up in flip flops as it's really hard to find a nice-looking middle ground between old lady flats and strappy skyscrapers.

Op those sandals you linked are awful sorry.

sorry I agree I don't like any of them! You could try Birkenstocks, they're comfortable and trendy....I have some baby pink ones and I wear them with everything in the summer. They go with shorts, skirts or trousers....

Here's a link www.birkenstock.co.uk

Are they for a special occasion or just for general summer wear?

moondog I love those hasbeens , have you ordered from them?

G, no not yet, but am about to.
Whaddya reckon, tan or black?
(Another MNer linked to them.)

tan I think

hope they are comfy

Let me know if they're comfy, moondog- think I'm gonna order a red slip on pair come payday

those shoes linked in the first post are absolutely awful

are you a lentil-weaver by any chance ?

with unshaved legs/armpits and grubby fingernails ?

that is the picture I get when I see those monstrosities...

those first shoes will be in my shoe room 101

Bloody hell are you all hippie skirted geography teachers - every link that I have clicked on is absolutely vile!!!

You will look as though you have hooves in half of those fugly shoes!

i love the flat art ones (third link in op)

dr martens used to do similar style ones.

but then, what do i know.....i wear uggs and crocs!

I don't even have geography O level, but I do find chunky shoes balance out my chunky arse. Have finally given up wearing dainty things with thin straps that rip your feet apart - been there done that so many, many times.

I do like the Hasbeens (get one in each colour, Moondog ) but don't think I could wear them for more than about 10 mins due to heels and the fact that wooden soles are really jarring when you try and walk in them.

yes the jarring would probably cripple me
my feet need lots of cushioning
