The £50 Sandals That Are as Comfortable as They Are Cool

June 21, 2021 at 06:24AM

It’s fair to say that recent fashion trends have been a conveyor belt of “dad” trends, with everything from anoraks to golf course–ready polos getting attention from the fashion crowd. The practical sandal was undoubtedly one of the most popular, with hiking brand Teva shifting its camping shop credentials to become the sandal of choice for Instagram’s coolest. It saw sellout success within weeks. Well, it’s time for dad sandal lovers to rejoice, because the £50 comfy-yet-cool shoe style is back for another year, and is ready to transition your WFH loungewear into the warmer months.

Tevas are shoes you can just as easy mooch around at home in as you can walk 10,000 steps a day in, thanks to the spongey platform and the adjustable straps. They come in many colours, including orange, white, khaki, aqua (a popular style is the Hurricane Drifts). However, the most-loved style within fashion circles are the Universal sandals in the Midform version, which are available in the UK for £50. Thanks to the platform, these are perfect for toughening up pretty floral minidresses and slip skirts. For those looking to go full-on dad, try adding a pair of white chunky ankle socks.
