Slides, two-strap sandals or clogs: which should you buy?

Choose slides if you want the quickest pair to slip on, two-strap sandals if you want straps you can adjust, and clogs if you want more coverage and a pair you can wear with socks. All three are classic shapes, so the choice comes down to your day.

Shape	Best suited to	Fit	Socks?
Slide	Hot days, quick trips	Slip on	Rarely
Two-strap	Everyday wear, smart casual	Adjustable buckles on many styles	Optional
Clog	Cooler days, all seasons	Closed front, buckle on many styles	Yes

When to choose a slide

A slide has an open back and nothing to fasten. It suits summer dresses, linen and quick errands. Our Gijon is a slide in beige or black at $59.90 AUD at the time of writing.

When to choose a two-strap sandal

Two buckled straps let you adjust the fit across the foot, and the shape looks neat with shorts or trousers. Our Madrid for women and Madrid for men have adjustable buckle straps at $59.90 AUD.

When to choose a clog

A clog covers the toes and suits the cooler months, with or without socks. Our Soria has a cow leather inner and an EVA outsole at $59.90 AUD. See what to wear with clogs for outfit ideas.

Which shape lasts in style?

None of these three shapes depends on a season's trend. A plain colour will keep working with more of your wardrobe.

What about a fourth option for the beach?

If you mostly need something for sand and water, look at one-piece EVA sandals, which are washable.
