Top 5 Transitional Sandals

If like us you’re a native Brit then you’ll understand the dilemma that we face when shopping for shoes at any point around August or September. You can never predict the weather and it changes from one second to the next, one moment it’s monsoon-like pouring down with rain and the next it’s sunny and warm.

Herein lies the problem, if you can’t guarantee that the weather is going to be like how are you possibly meant to choose the right shoes. This is where transitional sandals come in, we reckon we’ve still got at least a couple more weeks of good weather this summer and if you’re planning another holiday before the end of the season then you’ll be needing a new pair of sandals.

Instead of buying sandals that you’ll only get a couple of uses out of we’ve taken a look at some more hardy sandals that will work well into next season, just ignore the cardinal rule and pair yours with a cute pair of socks to keep those toes warm!
