Stop Wearing Sandals Wrong (How To Style Sandals Like A PRO)
About this video
Centeno provides a comprehensive guide to men’s sandal styling, covering common mistakes such as wearing sandals with suits, ignoring foot hygiene, pairing sandals with jeans, and wearing noisy or unsanitary footwear. He categorizes nine different sandal styles—flip-flops, slides, fisherman sandals, gladiator sandals, huaraches, espadrilles, sports sandals, mules, and Birkenstocks—and offers specific styling recommendations for each type based on formality level and appropriate clothing pairings.
Key takeaways
- Centeno argues that sandals are casual wear inappropriate for formal or dressy events, and recommends avoiding pairing sandals with jeans, suits, or socks in most situations
- Centeno emphasizes that proper foot hygiene is essential when wearing sandals since exposed feet are visible to others
- Centeno recommends different sandal styles for different occasions: fisherman sandals, huaraches, and espadrilles with wool trousers or collared shirts for a more elevated casual look; flip-flops and slides for beach and lounging; and sports sandals for athletic outdoor activities
