The most sought after are chunky coins and sandals, with thick soles and wide straps. The platforms are still worn, which returned from the 2000s, but in a more modern edition, with wicker, wooden or even transparent soles.
For minimalism lovers, leather sandals with thin straps in brown shade, from skin, white or metallic, they are the perfect choice because they are discreet and effective enough. At the other end of the spectrum are the details with details, floral motifs, beads and rivets, which are a more common choice of those who want footwear that speaks for themselves.
It should not be forgotten by sports coaches, who have found their place and in urban combinations. Models of brands like NIKE, Skechers and Crocs come in pastel or monochromatic versions that easily fit into a relaxed, sporty style.
In Zara, modern platform sandals, a lot of models in gold, silver and beige, and coils with details such as knit straps and metallic effects. As expected, the shelves are not missing even the most sought after print this season, Leopard Print.
In the mango, the chunky sandals with rivets can also be found more elegant variants, minimalist leather sandals with thin straps in bronze and bronze shades, ideal for evening combinations.
Gino Rossi brands and Jenny Fairy have particularly stood out at CCC, which have grinded skin models, real skin, with decent floral details, but also chunky coaches with anatomical cartridges. Guess went a step further with more luxurious models, gold details, monogram patterns and elevated soles make them striking and glamorous, but their price is slightly higher.
Stradivarius offers modern pieces at cheaper prices, transparent sandals, flip flops in leather performance and 3D flowers. Basic models are available in H&M with 15 €, with fashion variations in pastel colors but also with sectorial details.
An interesting addition to this season are transparent ballerinas and sandals, for those who want something different and braver, these models offer the « bare foot » effect.
Prices for summer women’s shoes start in a wide range, from 10 euros for simple models to 115 euros and more for leather or branded variants.
We also took a peek at the men’s department and looked at what was being offered from sandals and a coin for this season. It is dominated by a combination of minimalist design and modern materials, both in the female and men’s offer. In men’s models, leather sandals with a precise belt, in a black and dark brown variant are particularly emphasized, which are repeatedly reminiscent of the classic Roman sandals, but with an emphasis on comfort. Prices range between 25 and 80 euros, depending on the material and finishing.
H&M offers the most favorable men’s models, classic sports coorders, a japanese with leather details and simple sandals for everyday wear. The color palette is classic: black, blue, gray, brown. Prices are very affordable, so the coins can be found for 15 euros.
The models are designed to be easily combined with casual summer pants, flax shirts or short jeans, making them practical for both daytime and evening opportunities.
Sandals and slippers in stores offer everything from comfortable models for each day to striking variants for evening out. Summer 2025 carries freedom of choice, straight or high, sporty or elegant, one -colored or with apps. Everything is allowed, as long as you feel satisfied.
