If you are on the hunt for a new pair of summer sandals, then there is plenty to choose from as the new-season collections land in stores. And, although we usually avoid investing in anything that feels too trend-led (opting for classic and timeless designs instead) fashion’s new obsession with the open-toed, square sandal is going nowhere fast – and this feels like a trend worth considering.

Loved by A-listers including Rosie Huntington-Whitely, Hailey Bieber and Sienna Miller, the square sandal has been in favour for the past few summer seasons, and the trend now seems to be more popular than ever.

Labels including By Far, Rejina Pyo, Bottega Veneta and Mach & Mach have all banked heavily on the trend for spring/summer 2022, creating sleek and elegant sandals with statement square toes. A great update on the simple strappy slingback or mule, embracing the square-toed sandal is a great way to make your wardrobe feel fresh.

Below, we round up our favourite pairs of square-toed sandals that will make great additions to your summer wardrobe.
