Stylish Men’s Sandals & Flip-Flops to Wear This Summer

With temperatures rising and holidays approaching, it’s time to let your feet breathe in a pair of sandals. From easy, slip-on sliders to sporty, touch-fasten sandals, there’s a wide range of designs available from FitFlop.

Not only do they make for more stylish house shoes than the faux-fur-lined slippers you’ve been wallowing in all winter, but sandals are also now considered one of the coolest footwear choices you can make!

The key to finding the best laid-back summer style is to go for classic flip-flops or sandals. Think high-quality leather, simple sporty details, and of course, quality footbeds to provide comfortable foot support.

Whichever your vibe, the options are plentiful for the season that’s in it. Here are some of the best men’s sandals and flip-flops for summer, whether you’re heading out for a day on the lake or sundowners along the beach.

Iquishion Ergonomic Flip-Flops

Price: R449

From the top, they look like your typical surfer-dude flip-flops. Underneath, they’re engineered with FitFlop’s iQushion air-foam tech, with impact pillows at high-pressure areas, for non-stop comfort. Throw a pair in your suitcase – they’re just the thing for beach treks, bar hops, pretty much any holiday activity. Waterproof and slip-resistant.

The pool slide cousins of the bestselling surfer-dude flip-flops, these are sporty-casual, superlight and equally waterproof. Underneath there’s the same iQushion midsole tech: ergonomically shaped air-foam cushioning, with impact pillows front and back, for amazing walk-all-day comfort. On top, are beach-friendly all-rubber straps with a subtle mat texture, an embossed logo and a FitFlop-red tab. Essential for vacations – ready to dive in!

Tricked-out, on-trend sandals are great and all, but a simple leather sandal has the timeless appeal for every guy to sport for more than one season. Plus, the outstanding orthotic support makes these a prime choice for style and function.

Trakk II Mens Leather Flip Flops

Price: R1,699

The Trakk II flip-flops are perennial best-sellers, and bring a casual, classic, and out-of-thise-world comfort to the wearer. Handsome, fuss-free leather uppers sit on the pressure-diffusing, biomechanist-developed Microwobbleboard midsoles. They’re adjustable., lightly padded, and pretty much perfect.

The patent-pending, triple-density Microwobbleboard midsole was engineered by two pioneering British biomechanists. Delivering extraordinary comfort, it not only helps absorb shock but can also diffuse underfoot pressure, by instantly increasing the contact area of the foot to the midsole.

Jamie Mesh Thongs

Price: R1,499

Flip-flops that fuse sporty aesthetics and sharp detailing. Boasting padded uppers in a mix of mesh and faux-leather, chunky soles, reflective strips and subtle branding, these look the part. And thanks to the sporty-look version of FitFlop’s super-cushioned, pressure-diffusing Microwobbleboard midsoles they also feel amazing underfoot. Essential for sunny laidback days around town or at the beach, making you feel like you’re on holiday, anywhere.
