These $30 Gap Sandals Are Just as Cool as the $650 Pair That's Been on My Mind Since Last Spring

There's no denying the impact that The Row's jelly shoe styles had on the fashion set last year. The designs were a clear nod to our collective childhoods, which, in turn, sparked a nostalgic frenzy to secure a pair. I held off buying either the Mara Flats or the Beach Sandals due to questioning whether my interest would remain steady into 2025—not to mention the eye-watering prices. Sure enough, my heart still skips a beat when I see a pair.
Thankfully, I came across a $30 alternative for the jelly flip-flops from Gap that will perfectly curb my craving. It is on sale now for $23, so it's a no-brainer. At this affordable price point, I might even scoop up two colors. I'm currently leaning toward the red and clear pairs to have both a bold and subtle pick to alternate between depending on my look. Either way, I plan to wear them with everything from trending linen pants to pretty dresses to jeans.
