This summer, it’s all about the knee-high gladiator style sandal! The “normal” length, a little above your ankle, gladiator sandal has been around for years now. And it is definitely my favorite style of sandals. We first started to see the knee-high gladiator about two years ago. Recently, I’ve seen a good amount of people rocking them, but I think everyone will be wearing them by next summer (you know, like the combat boot trend). I feel like that extra length on the sandal just takes it to the next level. You can have on the plainest outfit, and then just throw those babies on, and boom, you’re stuntin’ on em (insert sunglasses emoji).
If you’re debating between buying a pair now, or waiting until next summer, you might as well buy and wear them now, and then you’ll be ahead of the game next year! I ordered my first pair of knee-high gladiators back in May, but they were a little too big. Of course when I went to exchange them, they didn’t have my size in the store or online (#thingsthatbreakmyheart). I finally got around to ordering another pair for a really good price, and hopefully I’ll love the shoe and the fit. If I do, stay tuned for an outfit post with them! In the meantime, check out these knee-high gladiator styles:
