4 Topics to Keep in Mind for Sandal Codes [ Summer 2024 ].

Sandals are a quintessential summer item, but what designs and styles are adults looking for this year? We will introduce recommended models by looking at the latest snapshots of coordinated outfits!

Summer 2024 Men's Sandal Codes ①

The Birkenstock Boston became popular in 2020 when Ye (Kanye West) wore them on the cover of GQ in Japan. In the past year or two, the number of people wearing them has increased considerably in Japan, and they continue to be one of the main footwear trends. Since there is a high probability that you will wear the same Boston as everyone else, a collaborative model is recommended if you want to show your individuality in a subtle way. For example, the shoes worn in this snapshot are a collaboration model with the American studded belt brand HTC. There are many other models developed in collaboration with popular brands such as Stussy and Rick Owens, so if you are interested, please check them out.

Full-length pants are very popular right now. You need to pay a little attention to the length, whether you wear them with sneakers or leather shoes, or with sandals. Shoes have volume around the ankle, so the hem of the pants will cushion there, but sandals basically leave the feet bare, so if the length is too long, the feet may be completely covered. The best length is to have the hem of the sandals just in front of the upper part of the sandals.

Sandals are often seen as sporty, and it is difficult to wear sports sandals or flip-flops in a mature manner, but sandals with a dressy and luxurious design are a different story. For example, the man shown here is wearing leather sandals with an elegant braided leather belt. Although they are sandals, they give off a classy mood like leather shoes, and they look good with a shirt and dress pants. It is no exaggeration to say that leather sandals are the only choice if you want to make your sandal coordination look beautiful.

Summer 2024 Men's Sandal Cordage (4)Crocs are booming again thanks to the Y2K trend and collaboration with Balenciaga!

Crocs sandals became the “neighborhood sandals” after they landed in Japan in 2005 and became an explosive hit. The recent Y2K boom and the release of the second collaboration model with Balenciaga (2022, the first in 2018) have brought about a renewed boom, especially among young people. The Birkenstock Boston is gaining popularity, and the clog type of sandal is now a popular stock. What is popular now are not the basic models that were popular at the time of landing, but deformed models like the one worn by the man shown here, and models with thick soles. The design is quite casual, so you will have to choose what to wear with them, but if you are looking for an easy way to incorporate a trendy look into your sandals, why not consider this as an option?

Recommended Sandals (1)EYTYS 'Alessa'

EYTYS slide sandals feature a colossal form and thick soles. The all-black color from the upper to the sole gives them a chic and mode atmosphere. If you are looking for a comfort sandal with an urban mood, this model is perfect.

Recommended Sandals (2)JIL SANDER 'Pin Buckle Flat Sandals'

Leather sandals from Jil Sander accented with a prominent silver buckle. The high degree of perfection of the sports sandal type, with a sense of hold that covers the instep and heel of the foot, while also firmly pursuing a high level of design, is as expected of Jil Sander. This is a pair that can be worn barefoot, of course, but also looks great with socks.

Recommended Sandals (3)BIRKENSTOK 'BOSTON'

As you know, Birkenstock’s Boston is also introduced. The comfort of Birkenstock’s sandals is so well known that it no longer needs explanation, but the Boston is particularly stress-free, and even after a long walk, you will not feel tired with its boasted footbed. If you are considering a pair of clog sandals, this is the model you should have first.

Finally, pick up Dr. Martens’ slide sandal, the JOSEF. The yellow stitching typical of Dr. Martens and the air-cushioned sole familiar from their boots are a nice touch. Not only the one-of-a-kind design, but also the comfort of Dr. Martens’ sandals are appealing.
