Despite the 3.7-inch heel height, the chunky platform makes them surprisingly stable to walk in and is light on the feet. They are bold, fun, and bring the party wherever you go (without sacrificing style for comfort or durability).

The Andre Assous Allison Espadrille gives the classic silhouette a fresh, elevated twist. Designed with a comfortable multi-strap elastic, it hugs the foot securely without digging in. The linen fabric provides the wedge with its breezy and carefree style, while the espadrille heel adds to its beachy and carefree design. Not to mention, the neutral colors go with anything. Luckily, you won\u2019t have to sacrifice style for comfort as these wedges provide support despite a 3-inch heel. We love them so much, we wish they came in other fun colors.\u00a0\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_29-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"><strong>Get the Look: <\/strong>Marine Layer Nova Midi Dress, Sezane Mini Justine Basket<\/p>\n<figure id=\"mntl-sc-block_30-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-image mntl-sc-block-image figure-landscape figure-high-res\">\n<div class=\"figure-media\">\n<div class=\"img-placeholder\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1500\" height=\"1000\" alt=\"A person standing on stone steps wears the Andre Assous Allison Linen Espadrille Wedges\" class=\"lazyload mntl-image mntl-image universal-image__image\" id=\"mntl-sc-block-image_8-0\" src=\"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/byr-andre-assous-allison-linen-espadrille-wedge-ally-hirschlag-before-after-6699d30ca4d24ffe987bd33817247c77.webp\" title=\"byr-andre-assous-allison-linen-espadrille-wedge-ally-hirschlag-before-after-6699d30ca4d24ffe987bd33817247c77\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/byr-andre-assous-allison-linen-espadrille-wedge-ally-hirschlag-before-after-6699d30ca4d24ffe987bd33817247c77.webp\" width=\"1500\" height=\"1000\" class=\"img--noscript mntl-image mntl-image universal-image__image\" alt=\"A person standing on stone steps wears the Andre Assous Allison Linen Espadrille Wedges\" title=\"byr-andre-assous-allison-linen-espadrille-wedge-ally-hirschlag-before-after-6699d30ca4d24ffe987bd33817247c77\"><\/div>\n<\/div><figcaption id=\"mntl-figure-caption_4-0\" class=\"comp mntl-figure-caption text-utility-100 figure-article-caption\"><span class=\"figure-article-caption-owner\"><\/p>\n<p>Byrdie<\/p>\n<p><\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_31-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"><strong>Ally Hirschlag, associate editorial director:<\/strong> \u201cEspadrilles are timeless, but a good, comfortable espadrille sandal that walks into practically any outfit is priceless.

Yet, somehow, the Nisolo Huarache makes this feat look easy. Constructed from handwoven leather, these sandals form to your foot over time, getting comfier with every wear. The foam midsole provides lush cushioning that utilizes shock-absorbing materials to feel easier on your feet. The closed-toe design is ideal for walking in large cities (or anywhere, really), and the classic huarache design feels unique and timeless. The shoe is breathable, versatile, and lasts through years of steps. Just note that some shoppers claim they run small, so we recommend sizing up if you\u2019re in between sizes.\u00a0\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_50-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"><strong>Eden Stuart, editor: <\/strong>\u201cWhat initially attracted me to this pair of huaraches was the closed toe of it all. I also loved the slimmer, less bulky design. That streamlined look helps this shoe go with truly everything. Plus, I&#8217;ve had mine for over four years\u2014and I am very hard on shoes. I truly cannot rave about these enough.\u201d\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"mntl-article-outro_1-0\" class=\"comp mntl-article-outro mntl-block\">\n<h2 id=\"mntl-sc-block_51-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-heading mntl-sc-block-heading\"><span class=\"mntl-sc-block-heading__text text-title-300\"> What to Look for in Sandals <\/span><\/h2>\n<ul id=\"mntl-sc-block_52-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\">\n<li><strong>Material: <\/strong>Sandals come in a variety of materials\u2014from leather to rubber\u2014and finding the perfect shoe for you depends on your needs. If you\u2019re looking for sandals that will become a timeless staple in your wardrobe, a high-quality leather pair will make a great addition. If you\u2019re looking for something extra-comfy, a resin sandal will provide your foot with a lush cushion that will minimize impact from walking. On the other hand, other sandals feature raffia material that adds a natural and beachy\u00a0flair.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Heel Height: <\/strong>Just like with the materials, the occasion should dictate the heel height. People tend to find flat sandals or those with a low platform best for walking. If you&#8217;re just looking for a dressy sandal to wear to summer soirees, you can opt for a higher heel. Keep in mind that platforms give you height with more stability.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Style: <\/strong>There\u2019s such versatility when it comes to sandals. We\u2019re big fans of everything from flip-flops to wedges to kitten heels. Finding the right style means picking a shoe that speaks to you and could easily fit into your wardrobe. But don\u2019t be afraid to go out of your comfort zone and try out a new style. It may become a new favorite.<strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 id=\"mntl-sc-block_53-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-heading mntl-sc-block-heading\"><span class=\"mntl-sc-block-heading__text text-title-300\"> How We Tested Sandals <\/span><\/h2>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_54-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> We believe in wearing the sandals we recommend, just like you would, so we prioritize testing them in real-life settings.
