Sandals Footwear

When it comes to sandals footwear you have a lot of choices, there are flip-flops, gladiators, strappy, wedge, thongs, closed toe, open toe, sling backs and the list goes on. 

The idea is to find a great looking sandal that is not only comfortable, it's stylish without carrying a huge price tag.

If I don't really know what I'm looking for I generally start with my old Standby, Zappos, I think they have a super selection of Womens Sandals in particular at super competitive prices, and I can't resist their free shipping and returns, they just make it so easy.

When finding the right sandals it often depends on what the occasion is.  For example if you're looking for comfort Birkenstock Sandals are super big on comfort and many of the styles are much cuter than they use to be. 

If you like handmade Mexican sandals the Huarache Sandals have been popular for actually   hundreds of years. Mexican peasants and villagers wore them all the time and they've become a popular among people all over the world.  The great thing about the Huarache sandal is they form to your foot so they're fairly comfortable the more you wear them.  I had a pair about five years ago and wore them until they flat wore out. I have to admit, they were comfy. 

While we're on the topic of comfort Naot Sandals are another extremely comfortable sandal, they specialize in the best conforming materials that are actually good for your feet.

Of course the most popular of all sandals are the Flip Flops.  They're probably the cheapest sandals you can buy. They're also ultra casual which makes them perfect summer and beach sandal, however I'm guilty of wearing them all year round, I wear them only around the house during the winter months but they're just easy and I also live in a warmer climate ;-)

The Espadrille Sandals are beginning to get back a lot of the attention they lost a few years ago.  They're kicky summer fashion sandals with an upper made of fabric and a flexible sole made of rope or rubber material formed to look like rope.  They're really cute with short summer skirts. They just make for a light, cute summer shoe.

If you've been paying attention to Hollywood these past few years you'll notice that the Gladiator Sandals have been a pretty popular.  I keep thinking they're on their way out but they're hanging in there.
