Chanel – Thongs
Chanel has already treated us to some fabulous footwear this season, including the highly coveted Mary Janes. However, alongside the brand’s Spring-Summer 2024 collection, lovers of all things CC were eagerly awaiting the velvet flip-flops that were spotted on the runway.

While flip-flops are never out of style, dainty leather sandals or chunky dad sandals have recently dominated the scene. This season, Chanel has shaken things up by introducing perhaps the most luxurious flip-flops available. Crafted in deep black velvet, these classic thongs are as minimal as it gets. The only detail is a tiny diamanté CC on each – a total touch of noughties nostalgia. Priced at $950, these are some seriously luxurious flip-flops.

Fit
Flip-flops are famed for their comfort, thanks to the lack of additional straps that may dig in and any fastenings. Here, the velvet adds an additional touch of softness to the otherwise flat footbed. Size-wise, Chanel’s Thong sandals run true to size, ensuring a perfect fit for everyone.

Hermès – Extra Sandal
Hermès has already given us one of the most coveted sandals of summer, the Chypres. Known to have waitlists longer than a Birkin, the Chypres are a firm favorite among Hermès enthusiasts and luxury lovers alike.

While the Chypre has had its prolonged time in the spotlight, it’s time for a refresh in 2024. Enter the equally chic Extra sandal. This techno-sandal offers a similar silhouette and footbed to the beloved Chypres but with a fresh look. Available in Nappa leather and suede goatskin, these sandals boast an IYKYK aesthetic. Instead of the iconic ‘H’ detail, the Extra sandal showcases a Chaine d’Ancre-inspired strap.

You can currently find the Extra sandal in Noir and Blanc, alongside suede offerings in Beige Argile and Rose Porcelaine, as well as some two-tone options, both in boutiques and online. However, move fast, as much like the Chypres, the Extra sandals are selling out quickly. The Extra sandal retails for $910.

If you find the Chypres comfortable, these could be the next style to add to your closet. Featuring the same rubber sole and anatomical footbed, the Extra sandals are known for their comfortable slider design. There are no fastenings here, so you can simply slide them on and off for an effortless style.

The Tribute sandal has an all-leather sole, and this can sometimes become slippery over time, especially given the modest 0.2-inch heel height. To address this, adding a rubber sole for additional grip might be recommended.
