Warm temperatures are here, people are making summer travel plans, and it’s officially sandal season! Are you looking for a pair of cute but comfortable sandals to celebrate our ability to roam free post-coronavirus 2021? We totally are. And the solution is so simple: fisherman sandals. Along with designer Birkenstocks, clogs and fishnet bags, this look is sturdy but statement-making; pretty and practical. Our correspondent Jillian Tangen has curated a list of 12 of the best luxury fisherman sandals for women to love this Summer 2021 if you’re in on this latest fashion accessory trend.
fisherman sandals for women are a hot fashion trend this summer 2021
Even well before the pandemic struck, we had been seeing a shift towards practicality in fashion – most notably in footwear. From designer sneakers to Birkenstocks to luxury hiking sandals, high heels have been retired in favor of more sensible shoes that enable us to roam city streets, museums and parks pain free.

But what if chunky and clunky aren’t your thing? Fortunately for you, a more tailored yet equally comfortable dad inspired shoe has slowly crept its way up the top of the trend chain: the fisherman sandal.
Made with interwoven straps that enclose the toes in a cage (protecting them from what we can only assume might be fish hooks) and a buckle around the ankle for stability, fisherman sandals offer full foot protection, lightweight breathability and comfort in a sleek, chic package. Not to mention, they look pretty cute with socks – so there’s no need to say goodbye to them come fall.
While there are plenty of versions that have stayed true to the original style, we find ourselves particularly drawn to the more modern-day updates that some brands have come up with like lug soles, bold pops of color, studs and new textures that keep things fresh.
Below, the 12 best fisherman sandals from The Row, Rachel Comey, Tod’s and more to shop now.
