Trust Me—These Designer Sandals Are Worth the Money
When it comes to sandals, there’s definitely no requirement to spend big. I’ve come across countless under-$100 pairs that I love and would personally buy or recommend to a friend. Of course, if you are in the market to splurge on a new summer shoe, there’s always an upside. Designer sandals aren’t just buzzy or on-trend—though, they often are those things. They’re also built to last, meaning if you choose a pair that’s timeless in design, it can stick with you for years and years, just as some of my own favorites have.
On that note, I recently perused the world of high-end sandals to round up the best of the best out there right now. From classics such as Loro Piana and Hermès to newer names like A.Emery and Amanu, consider the below your guide to the best styles and brands on the luxury market. Ready to see what made the cut? Simply keep scrolling to get started and to shop my picks.
Since starting as an intern back in 2013, Nicole Akhtarzad Eshaghpour has held several roles here atBest Knockoff Luxury Clothing , and she is currently Editor-at-Large. Upon joining, she was a senior about to graduate from business school at USC. Fast-forward to 2025, and she's moved to NYC from her hometown of Beverly Hills and spends her workdays a little differently from when she was just starting out. Currently, she focuses on a weekly mélange of shopping content and her Trust Me—Buy This newsletter. As far as her personal style goes, she's largely drawn to neutral, classic pieces but will always make an exception for something colorful or bejeweled as long as it's deemed worthy enough. After all, the only thing she loves more than a party is dressing up for one. On her downtime, she can usually be found at home eating something delicious and trying to force her husband to watch Summer House.
