15 Flatform Sandals That’ll Bring Your Look To New Heights

Bonus: they’re actually easy to walk in

Summer is approaching, and sandal season is finally upon us—which means it’s time for us to search for that perfect everyday open-toe shoe. When it comes to picking out the perfect summer sandal, it’s important to find something comfortable enough to take us from work to play. Of course, it doesn’t hurt when the pair also adds a little bit of height. 

Behold: the flatform. Unlike their wedged and heeled counterparts, these platforms are actually comfortable and easy to walk in—adding an extra inch or two without the extra pain. Not to mention, they’re pretty damned cute. To make things easier for you, we rounded up our favorite flatform sandals of the season—from sliders to lace-up espadrilles (and the Opening Ceremony x Tevas, of course)—to get you from roof party to roof party, all summer long. Now all we need is a summer-appropriate pedicure… good thing, we have some inspiration.
