SANDALS

In the Cape it's incredibly hot, a lot. So for those fortunate ones the sandal, or slops as they're more affectionately known as in Cape Town, are part of the basic wardrobe. Of course they come in different slices of the style pie- and I've compiled a few that will offer you options for your own wardrobe.



I'm a big fan of these sandals as made by Cavalli. One strap over the foot, and one for the toe. Simple and wearable with more formal looking attire. I would wear this fitted trousers and a shirt/jacket combo.




The Fisherman's sandal is also a versatile sandal, although a lot chunkier it's still a great shoe and not likely to become the over-worn and avoided shoe like Crocs.



The Gladiator sandal is a fantastic sandal that maintains it's masculinity in size when paired with slim leg trousers as D&G shows us below.



As an alternative there is the "Jesus" sandal from Jerusalem Depot.



I have come to appreciate this particular sandal by Birkenstock, demonstrated perfectly by the gentleman below.





Even the catwalk isn't above the use of the Sandal in their shows...



Gucci




Dsquared2

AVOID any/all of these!
