New Sandals for You

Six fresh picks for summer

These six new arrivals span the everyday and dressier ends of the category, from poolside cork flip flops and quick-trip foam slides to braided flats, metallic slides and bold lace-up gladiator straps.
DSW Women's Metallic Slide Sandals — A Bright, Easy Slide for Sunny Days and Warm Evenings
The shiny metallic finish gives an otherwise simple slide a little polish, so these work for summer outings where you want something quick to slip on. The slip-on shape means no buckles or straps to fuss with when you head out the door, and the flat profile keeps things relaxed.
DSW Women's Braided Flat Sandals — A Chic, Low-Profile Pair for Casual Outfits All Season
A woven, braided upper adds texture to a flat sandal that stays easy to match with jeans, shorts or a sundress. Because the silhouette is slim and unfussy, it is a reliable pick for casual days when you want your outfit to do the talking and your feet to stay comfortable.
DSW Women's Strappy Low Heel Sandals — Elegant Support for Events That Keep You on Your Feet
A low heel gives these strappy sandals a bit of lift without asking you to spend the whole event balancing. The strappy construction dresses them up nicely for weddings, dinners and other occasions where flats feel too casual and a high heel feels like too much.
DSW Women's Cork Footbed Flip Flops — Cushioned Comfort for Hot Pavement and Poolside Errands
The cushioned cork footbed is the main story here, built to keep feet happier on hot pavement whether you are running poolside errands or taking a weekend walk around town. As a simple flip flop, they are the easiest pair in the lineup to grab and go.
DSW Women's Platform Wedge Sandals — Sturdy Lift for Daytime Outings and Evening Plans
A sturdy wedge delivers real height while keeping your weight spread across the footbed, which makes a platform sandal easier to wear for longer than a slim heel. That balance suits daytime outings that roll into evening plans without needing a shoe change.
DSW Women's Gladiator Lace-Up Sandals — A Bold Edge for Shorts, Skirts and Summer Dresses
Lace-up gladiator straps turn a basic summer sandal into a statement, wrapping the ankle for a bold, fashion-forward look. Pair them with shorts, skirts or summer dresses when you want one detail to carry the whole outfit and you do not mind a little extra styling.

DSW Women's Toe-Post Flat Sandals — Easy Everyday Comfort for Errands and Beach Days

A simple toe-post shape keeps this pair light and easy for warm days, with a flat profile that slips on in seconds. A cushioned footbed softens hot pavement, so short walks and errands both stay comfortable. Pair it with denim, shorts or a sundress for reliable everyday wear.

DSW Women's Ankle Strap Kitten Heel Sandals — Refined Polish for Office, Brunch or Night Out

The heel height is the reason to consider this pair: a kitten heel adds just enough lift to feel polished for the office, brunch or a night out, while the secure ankle strap keeps the sandal steady as you move. It is a sensible middle ground when flats feel too casual.

DSW Women's Beaded T-Strap Sandals — Hand-Finished Detail That Dresses Up Casual Looks

Hand-finished beading along a classic T-strap is what sets this sandal apart, adding color and texture that makes a simple outfit look considered. The style is versatile enough to dress up jeans or a casual dress, so one pair can cover several different occasions.

DSW Women's Adjustable Fisherman Sandals — Roomy Coverage With a Secure All-Day Fit

A roomy fisherman silhouette offers more coverage than most sandals, and the adjustable strap lets you fine-tune the fit for all-day wear. That combination suits shoppers who want a laid-back look with a secure feel rather than a barely-there strap that shifts as they walk.

Where women's sandals fit your day

From quick errands and beach days to full walking schedules and dressier events, sandals cover a lot of ground. Match the occasion to the structure and coverage you need, and the right pair becomes an easy call.

Compare With Confidence

What to compare before you choose

Find Your Sandal Direction

Three directions that narrow your sandal pick

Women’s sandals fall into three directions, and the fastest way to choose is matching the direction to your day. Simple flats keep things easy, cushioned styles go the distance, and heeled or embellished pairs handle dressing up.

Tomas L.A dressier pair that never felt like heels
I needed something for a summer wedding that would not have me sitting down by the second hour. The low heel gave me a little lift while the ankle strap kept things steady, and I drew compliments all night without any real discomfort.
Jules K.
Jules K.Comparing coverage before buying paid off
Reading the guides on strap width and footbed shape saved me from another pair of thin flip flops that shift around as you walk. I went with a wider adjustable band instead, and the difference in comfort was obvious the very first day out.
Alicia W.
Alicia W.One pair that covered three summer plans
I wanted a sandal that could handle a beach day, a casual office and a rooftop dinner, and a simple braided flat did all three. It matched everything I packed and folded flat in my bag, which made weekend travel much lighter and cheaper.

Questions to ask before you pick

Shoppers weighing women’s sandals often ask about heel height, footbed cushioning, strap security and how far a casual style can carry them through a busy day. These answers lay out the trade-offs so you can match the pair to your plans.
A flat sandal keeps things relaxed and easy for errands and casual days. A wedge adds height while spreading your weight across the footbed, and a kitten heel adds a little more polish. If you expect to stand for hours, cushioning usually matters more than height, so weigh both together.
Look for a contoured or cushioned footbed first, since cork and molded foam absorb more of the impact on hot pavement. A secure strap across the heel or ankle helps too, because it stops your foot from sliding forward when the surface gets warm and slick underfoot.
Slip-ons are excellent for quick trips, errands and lazy days because you can be out the door in seconds. For long stretches of walking they work best when the footbed is cushioned, since nothing holds the heel in place. Keep them for shorter, relaxed outings and save strappier styles for full days.
Thin straps feel lighter and more open, but they shift more as you walk. Wider or adjustable bands hold the foot steadier, and a lace-up or ankle strap adds the most security. Decide based on how much movement your day involves rather than on look alone.
Yes. Low heels, kitten heels and refined strappy sandals read well in an office and at summer events, especially in a simple color. Beaded or metallic details add polish quickly, so you can keep the rest of the outfit understated and still feel appropriately dressed.
