Most men spend too much on sandals they barely wear or too little on ones that fall apart before August. The flat sandal market is full of both extremes. What we’ve been looking for is the middle ground where construction is actually taken seriously, where the footbed has real support, and where the leather or material ages well rather than just giving up. Good sandals do not need to announce themselves. A clean silhouette, decent straps, and a sole with some grip is really all you need to see you through everything from a city weekend to a week somewhere warmer. We’ve been particularly focused on options where the quality to price ratio makes you feel like you got away with something. Some of these will surprise you at their price point. None of them will embarrass you wearing them. That is the standard we hold everything in here to and these cleared it comfortably.
