Browsing for a pair of gladiator sandals online means going through a barrage of leather, buckles and straps. There’s just so much attacking your senses all at once. So to find simple and straightforward gladiator sandals like the ones from Dolce Vita felt like it was looking at something for the first time.

Dolce Vita Addy

We like how the straps on these gladiator sandals only crisscross around the ankles and that the rest of it is just a simple T-strap thong. No more fussing with straps when you have a zipper at the heel to cinch in everything for you. And although only the wearer will be able to see it, the palm tree drawing on the footbed is an extra feature that’ll make you feel extra good about wearing these sandals.

This is a gladiator sandal that makes the Roman warrior shoe perfectly womanly. The chunky wedge heel and the slightly elongated toe give this sandal a more elegant feel. Can’t you just imagine wearing these sandals with a flowing sundress and a wide-brimmed hat like in the movies?

Now here’s the hands-down winner. It appears to be a nondescript gladiator sandal but it is in fact quite complex. If you look at the side, you’ll see that all the straps are cut from one strip of leather. They are then woven together to create the gladiator look. Two more straps are added to go over the toe. This sandal will definitely weed out the true-blue shoe lovers from the others: footwear connoisseurs will immediately see and appreciate all the love and work that went into the details of this gladiator sandal.
