Sandals as a Christmas gift in Australia: how to get it right
Sandals make a good Australian Christmas gift because December is the start of summer. To get it right, find out the person's foot length in centimetres, choose a neutral colour and a simple shape, and order with enough time to spare.
How to find out their size without asking
- Check the size printed inside a pair they wear often, then convert it with our EU to Australian size guide.
- Ask someone who shops with them.
Gift ideas by person
For her
Gijon in beige or black goes with most summer wardrobes. Mallorca in rose gold or bronze is a dressier choice. Both are $59.90 AUD at the time of writing.
For him
Madrid in black or brown is an easy choice for dads and partners at $59.90 AUD.
For kids
Kids' sandals are $49.90 AUD. Children's feet change quickly, so measure close to the day you order. Our kids' size guide explains how.
For the beach house
Washable one-piece EVA, like Ibiza or Malaga at $49.90 AUD, suits a summer by the water.
What if the gift does not fit?
Our change-of-mind window is 7 days from delivery, and it starts when the parcel arrives, not on Christmas Day. If you order early, check the size with the person before the 7 days run out. Returned pairs must be unworn and in their original packaging. Faulty pairs are covered by the Australian Consumer Law whatever the date. See delivery and returns.
How much is delivery?
Delivery is free to any address in Australia, however small the order.
