The gladiator sandals that I like
As regular readers of this blog know that I have not liked gladiator sandals, not since last summer when they first appeared. I still don’t. However, it seems that the definition of gladiator sandals has broadened quite a bit this summer and sandals that are merely strappy are grouped into this category. While I still dislike the gladiators in its truest form, I’m quite fond of the few derivatives. If it’s a flat, I like the more delicate straps, e.g. the thong variety. If it’s a heel, the straps can be thicker and closer together as long as they are offset by the high chunky heel/platform combination. And it’s better not to have the cankle-inducing ankle strap.
