It's a warm one this week and we're glad to finally feel like the dog days of summer are upon us! We've been shopping around for our favorite summer sandals of 2024, and we have narrowed it down to these 6 styles. There's some great deals happening now that you don't want to miss! Most of these styles are versatile enough that they can be worn with sporty outfits, casual dresses, or you can pair them with your swimsuit and cover-up on the way to the water.
1. Reef Vegan Leather | 2. Crocs Tulum Flip-Flop | 3. Keen Sandal | 4. Oofos Cloud Sandals | 5. Sketchers (Bob) Sandals | 6. Crocs Brooklyn Sandal
2. Crocs Tulum Waterproof Flip-Flop- Who ... who knew that Crocs actually make shoes that look good on your feet?! These are the most budget-friendly summer sandals at under $20. They are a flat and super casual slide with a fun fashionable look. The waterproof heavy-duty rubber makes them durable yet functional. Plus, they're available in fun colors too!
3. Keen Canvas-Strap Sandal- Made of a thick canvas material, these Keen sandals have a soft cushion sole making them super comfortable for long walks or adventures. Ashley ordered these earlier this summer and tested them out on our recent trip to St John (one day soon we'll write up a blog post about that)! They're easy to slip on and off since the back strap just stretches over the heel. These come in several colors.
4. Oofos Waterproof Cloud Sandals- Originally invented to be athlete recovery sandals, these are the ultimate "oldie, but goodie" sandal... yep, we said it. These relieve stress on the joints and back to help absorb impact and cradle the arch. They continue to improve their design aesthetic and even brought on some bright new colors this year like this baby blue, or the purple is my next fav! One of their most popular sellers is the atlantis ombre blue pair. Kim & Matthew have these and rave about the comfort; they have great arch support and truly provide all day comfort.
5. Sketchers (Bob) Olive Green Sandals- A simple raw edge wedge sandal that can easily dress up or down any outfit. We're in love with these fun but simple wedges. Kim put these to the ultimate test when she took these to Italy with her and was able to comfortably walk many miles in them. The style looks great with shorts, jeans, pants and dresses. The sole has extra cushion with decent arch support to ensure max comfort for all.
6. Crocs Waterproof Smooth-strap Brooklyn Low-wedge Sandal- These are a summer essential sandal that's casual and waterproof. Crocs has really stepped up their style game to get competitive with other brands. The strap on these is fun and different with a double-bead closure.
We couldn't do a sandal article without mentioning our tried and true favorite sandal styles from the past few seasons.
The Reef Fanning Sandal- Featuring the bottle opener in the bottom, these are a boating essential sandal and stay put on the foot to prevent slipping and falling on wet spots. True game changer for us lake life folks!
The Reef Vista Hi Platform Sandal- Fun fashionista-style sandal in solid colors or a variety of fun patterns. The rugged heel provides an excellent non-slip base and these are so versatile in style and look good with shorts, dresses, jeans, and pants.
