It's Official: These Are the Most-Wanted Luxury Sandals of Summer 2026
Fashion people can't get enough of The Row's refined sandals. Explore the best The Row flip-flops here.
From the city streets to far-flung beaches, sandals are officially back in rotation. The spring days are calling for a switch-up in our shoe collections, and in particular, one that will hold its place until the cooler autumn days arrive. With countless steps ahead, it's worth investing in a great pair that will see us through the coming months as well as return to our wardrobe year after year. And already, I'm spotting so many fashion people calling upon The Row's stellar flip-flop collection to complete their chic warm-weather looks.
From tailoring to bags, easy staples to standout footwear, The Row seems to perfect every single wardrobe category it touches. Whilst I could while away the hours talking through the best The Row bags or the polished tailoring, a sudden flurry of sightings of the brand's beloved sandals has focused my attention on the stellar flip-flop offerings of the moment. True to the brand's aesthetic, the best The Row flip-flops follow the same principles as all its other designs: understated, timeless and with a serious in-the-know feel.

In the blink of an eye, flip-flops have returned to the everyday. Peeking out under loose jeans, paired with floaty spring dresses, and bringing a relaxed mood to tailored shorts, the sandal style is bringing ease to our current looks. When adding a luxury piece to our wardrobes, it's nice to see just how much wear you'll get to make the investment worthwhile. Whether drawn to the striking red and black accents of the Dune flip flops or the understated appeal of the Ginza, the clean lines and classic look bring a touch of sophistication to this hard-working shoe, primed to be called upon every spring and summer as needed.
