Move Over Hercules ... You're Wearing My Shoes

At its most basic, a sandal is simply a sole held on to the foot by strap. But, an ancient trend that has recently been popping up on the red carpet and elsewhere is the strappy gladiator sandal. These "modern vintage" sandals will set you on the cutting edge of fashion. It is definitely back and one of the styles of the season. There are a plethora of styles from which to choose, ranging from gladiators and sling backs to thongs, slides, and those that wrap and tie around the leg. Leather "gladiator" sandals start out light in color but turn darker and mold to your foot with age.

Dressy or casual, we found some nice choices at Endless. Here are our picks .... although it's all "Greek to Us" : )

Giuseppe Zanotti Women's E80147 Flat Gladiator Sandal


Giuseppe Zanotti Women's E80147 Flat Gladiator Sandal

This eye-catching version from Giuseppe Zanotti is handsomely crafted from richly colored metallic leather and adorned with polished silver strap buckles and metallic rivets at the vamp. The full leather lining lets feet breathe freely, and the lightweight and flexible leather sole provides soft and supple walking comfort. Pair with a thin, slinky dress for a truly epic look.


Modern Vintage Women's Fernanda Gladiator Sandal


Modern Vintage Women's Fernanda Gladiator Sandal

A glorious hybrid of sandal and boot, the Fernanda Gladiator sandal. The sleek leather and eelskin upper is classically strappy along the foot, then forges upward with an outrageously wide belted cuff that hugs the ankle and outlines your curves. Outfitted on a flat leather sole and slight traction heel, this daring sandal puts all eyes on you.
