I’m loving the minimalistic leather sandals on offer this summer!
My check-list for the ultimate summer sandal is:
- natural matte leather,
- an ankle strap that that is on the sexy side of wide (or a sling back),
- super flat soles,
- neutral tones.

This sandal is the perfect all-day option for summer, working with slim leg jeans, shorts of all descriptions, casual dresses and relaxed masculine-style linen pants.
For a shoe that is so outwardly basic in appearance, I kind of get an artsy feel about them; the pared back simplicity is a reminder of form over artifice.
Worth buying more than one pair, you’ll be sure to get your mileage out of these quality staples this season. TIP: buy genuine leather or don’t buy at all!

Big, big sandal fan here too and with long legs, I love the ankle strap to ‘shorten’ my legs, giving me a better looking proportion. Great selection here, thank you!
You’re welcome @janekim! Hope you find something that you can get a lot of wear out of!
Thanks for the tip about Etsy @Pascaline – I’m an etsy fan myself, but for some reason I have not thought to look there for sandals! I will check it out.
love them all!
Thanks BWA for making this list. So hard to find lovely minimalist sandals that aren’t too busy for my everyday style 🙂
Not my style…
two tone neutrals!
I bought mine on Etsy, handmade in Cyprus the best sandals ever I’m getting another pair, plus it’s custom made and a fraction of the store bought sandals.
Which etsy shops?
Unsure about this one; need to head to the shops and try on a few.
Yeah! Love those flatties with the black around the ankle and the zip up back! Cute!
Lovely
