23 Fringe Sandals That Won't Give You Tacky Festival Vibes

Instead, you’ll look like a summery ’70s goddess or a subtle-but-devoted member of the ‘Yeehaw’ army.

Toe-baring season is here, so you’ve likely started the process of booking your first pedicure appointment of the year and dusting off your open-toed shoes. If you’re leaning towards re-upping your warm-weather footwear collection, we’ve already given you a few options, from “ugly”sandals (that will replace your “ugly” sneakers) to nostalgia-heavy flatforms.

And if you’re looking for something with a bit of embellishment, sandals with fringe can serve a multitude of sartorial sensibilities. Maybe you’re fresh off the festival circuit and are still looking for less over-the-top ways to channel that laid-back vibe before your stressful morning commute. Maybe you’ve realized that fashion is a never-ending cycle of repeated looks from back-when, and your throwback decade of choice is the ’70s, when fringe was abundant. Or perhaps you’ve realized the Yeehaw aesthetic is here to stay, but you’re just not willing to wear a cowboy hat to work.

Whatever has inspired you to go on this journey, allow this gallery below, filled with sandals that can meet any and all of your fringy needs, to be your guide.
