When it's hot and humid out, the last thing you want to do is put on a pair of warm socks and feel even hotter. While socks are still essential when wearing sneakers for working out or wearing with a pair of formal shoes for work, a more comfortable shoe option during the summer are sandals. They keep your feet cool by allowing air to flow through the shoe, and they also look great with summer outfits.
The Different Types Of SandalsThere are many different styles of sandals to choose from. Flip-flops are a popular choice for casual wear because they are easy to slip on and go with a variety of laid-back outfits. They are also plush and comfortable which makes walking on the beach or running errands more enjoyable.
Strappy sandals are ideal for date-night, brunching with friends, or any other occasion that doesn't quite classify as formal but requires something dressier than flip-flops. They are also great when you want to wear sandals on a rainy day but don't want your feet sliding out of your shoes like flip-flops tend to do during wet weather. Strappy sandals are available in both flats and a variety of heel heights.
Platform sandals were a popular trend in the 1990s and have made a comeback recently in the fashion world. They can come as either a slip on or strappy style with a large, raised wedge on the bottom. Not only do they offer a bit of nostalgia, they also go with just about any outfit and can bring you from casual during the day to dressy at night.
The History Of The SandalSandals were first worn by the ancient Egyptians and Greeks, but they looked much different than the ones available on the market today. The first sandals were made from twigs and leaves and eventually evolved into other materials like cork and cattle skin.
More fashionable sandals emerged in the mid-1800s, although they were typically closed-toe because of the conservative style at the time. The sandal surged in popularity in the 1950s and 1960s when hippie fashion took over. The trend has stuck ever since and new sandal styles continue to emerge each year.
