Once summer rolls around, it can feel easy to default to the most basic pair of sandals—simple, flat, and functional. But this season, that approach is quietly shifting. From barely-there straps to sculptural soles and rich, tonal textures, 2025’s standout styles are defined by their subtle sophistication that can elevate an outfit with ease.
While fashion’s ongoing love affair with minimalism is still going strong, make no mistake: pared-back doesn’t have to mean boring—and Mango epitomises this better than most. The brand’s latest drop is a curated edit of sleek, considered silhouettes—think supple suede flats, buckle-fastened slip-ons, and elegantly pared-back kitten heels—all tapping into the season’s obsession with ease and effortlessness. They feel designer-adjacent without the investment price tag.

Mango’s real strength lies in its ability to marry wearability with polish. These are shoes designed to move seamlessly through your summer schedule—city breaks, garden parties, long office days included. Whether you’re drawn to understated classics or looking for something with a quiet point of difference, shop my favourite Mango sandals below.
