1. Faux-leather and cork "fisherman" sandals that will be as comfortable on your feet as you are on the open sea.
2. Ankle-strap sandals whose elastic bands will keep them from feeling too restricting. Elastigirl wears these on her days off from crime fighting, no question.
3. Vegan leather two-tone gladiators for making everyone think you're a beach kid, even if you live in the middle of Ohio.
4. A classic sandal with a slight wedge so you can have a new go-to shoe faster than you can count how many straps they have.
5. Shell-studded wrap sandals, because maybe your feet are cute bro twins named Chad and Brad who wear pooka shell necklaces and legitimately pull them off.
6. Braided gladiators that Hercules and Meg could and, frankly, should each own a pair of.
7. A simple earth tone flat, because sometimes less is more, even when it comes to sandals.
8. Thong sandals with a zippered back so you don't have to waste time struggling to get your foot through a maze of straps before heading out the door.
9. Sandals featuring a fun braided strap that will have all your other shoes gossiping about how these are "showing off."
10. Lace-up gladiators available in a ton of fun colors so you can rock a veritable rainbow of sandals throughout the week.
11. Billabong thong sandals that are as fun to wear as they are to say. Everyone together now — "Billabong thong, Billabong thong, Billabong thong."
12. Faux-suede gladiators with scalloped edges so you're technically always catching a ~wave~ and hanging ten.
13. Braided sandals that are super comfy and water-resistant, making these perfect for anyone often transforming between human and mermaid — lookin' at you, Ariel.
14. Crocs ankle-strap wedges, because the world deserves a grown-up version of '90s jelly shoes and I cannot believe I am saying this, but Crocs delivered.
15. Or a flat, strappy Croc if you just want to lean in to that soft and enticingly cushy Croc lifestyle.
16. Criss-cross sandal booties that are relatably indecisive. Is it a boot? Is it a sandal? Why choose? WE CAN HAVE IT ALL!
17. Leopard print espadrille wedges so you can very literally take a walk on the wild side.
18. Ankle-strap sandals with a 'lil heel for when you feel like taking on the world with an extra half inch on your side.
19. Metallic wedge sandals for setting the ~gold standard~ of cool to weigh all your other shoes against.
20. Knotted block heels to throw on before going out when you're feeling a little ~knotty~.
21. And some bright green Rag and Bone sandals that — I'm gonna *Neon*-est — are the cutest shoes I've ever seen.
In all these strappy sandals, you're gonna look as good as Hercules!
