Rope Sandals Are The It-Girl Shoe Of The Season: Here's How To Wear Them, Even If You're Not In Italy
Summer asks a lot of a shoe. It has to survive the farmers' market, look intentional at the office, and still feel worth wearing by the end of a long day. For years, stylish and comfortable have been two different categories when it comes to warm-weather footwear, but this year's it sandal finally bridges the gap. Enter: the rope sandal.
For the past two years, the coastal grandma and fisherman aesthetics have had a majority of fashion girls clamoring for fisherman sandals. During this timeframe, paper-thin, '90s-inspired flip-flops have also been considered a stylish must-have. This year, coastal is very much still the vibe to aspire to, but with the benefit of a more comfortable fit and a chicer silhouette. Rope sandals are taking qualities from their trending predecessors and serving up something much more stylish and wearable.
