Some shoes go in and out of vogue but never truly fall out of style. Take fisherman sandals, for example. Worn recently by celebs including Hailey Bieber and Taylor Swift, this casual footwear exudes all things summer while looking much more elevated than a flip-flop.
Inspired by the shoes worn by fishermen in the '40s, today's style falls somewhere between a '90s-style jelly sandal and a strappy leather gladiator sandal. It sounds like a lot, but trust us: it works.
Ahead, see how Bieber and Swift styled their fisherman sandals, plus shop their shoes and 15 more versions of the trend. Who knows? The pair you add to your cart may be your best catch of the day.
