We have gone on about how much we love the dad sandal trend that just keeps giving, but let’s talk specifically about which pairs would be ideal for your lifestyle. I am a mom and a preschool teacher so I am constantly on my feet and spend a lot of time outdoors and walking in Chicago, so I have put my sandals through their paces. I want to call out three pairs that have been amazing for me for the last two summers, in cases you are also looking for black sandals that are comfortable, stylish, and durable.

First I want to talk about the sandal I wear basically every day- the Mona by Steve Madden, also available here in a crocodile-embossed leather. These are an understated way to wear the “ugly” dad sandal that won’t overwhelm your work outfit or scream for attention. Bonus: they are incredibly comfortable- I wore them all day straight out of the box and had no issues with my typically very sensitive feet. These are great for working with kids or just doing a lot of walking. They are so comfy, in fact, that I plan on taking them with me on vacation to Portugal later this summer.
Next we have the Tavira sandal in black, from my favorite Maguire shoes. These are beautiful, comfortable, and of course amazing quality. I love how they work with any outfit, from workwear to dainty, feminine dresses.
I am a huge huge Vagabond Shoemaker fan and I am obsessed with these Blenda slip-ons– especially how they look with baggy or wide-leg jeans. I wear Vagabond boots every fall/winter and am now a warm-weather shoe convert as well.
