Combine Charleston and Paris With These Comfy, Rich-Looking Sandals

I’m not one to brag . . . but I think I found the cutest, most comfortable sandals on the market. It’s been a long time coming, but anyone who’s shopped for sandals lately knows what a feat this is. Whether you have “normal” feet or oddly narrow ones like mine, finding summer shoes can be a frustrating venture — that is until I discovered these rich, Eurpean-looking cushioned sandals.

Most elevated sandals look cute, but may not feel great underfoot. However, these Naot Aubrey sandals are the exception. A vibe that’s both Paris and Charleston, these sandals are the definition of old money. It has buttery-soft leather and suede straps that prevent blisters while walking all day. Plus, the dainty gold hardware, a half-inch platform and overall stitching that looks custom.

The footbed is worth talking about: Made of an anatomic cork and latex material, the shoes mold to the unique shape of your foot while also supporting each step. It even has the stamp of approval from the American Podiatric Medical Association (APMA) for promoting good foot health. And if you’re planning to wear these everywhere like I am, the modest 1.5-inch heel is incredibly comfortable for walking to dinner, Target or around Italy.

Styling these sandals couldn’t be easier. Pair the classy kicks with a maxi dress and earrings for an easy date night look, or with flowy palazzo pants, a breezy top and an oversized tote for a shopping day with the girls. You can also wear it with casual shorts and a tank for the day-to-day, so don’t be afraid to get creative.

I’m loving the almond brown color since it goes with everything (and makes me look more tan), but you can also snag the sandals in black or subtle ivory. No matter the color, you’re guaranteed to have a sophisticated, effortlessly put-together aesthetic that turns heads in every grocery aisle.

Shoppers love the arch support, including one reviewer who said that the “arch is better than most other brands” and added that the shoes “are like wearing pillows, with a suede lining.” Another calls them “comfortable right out of the box,” urging Naot to release “more colors please.”

I’m eyeing the ivory, too, so I may have two pairs in my summer wardrobe!
