Trendspotting: Two-Tone Combo Colors on Gladiator Sandals

Just when you thought it was finished with all its reincarnations, a new trend in gladiator sandals has cropped up: two tone colors and combination materials on our favorite sandal style.

Check out 5 of the newest gladiator sandal arrivals at Zappos sporting the latest trend:

DV by Dolce Vita Delano, $71.95

Steven Frani, $149.95

Kensie Girl Shaylo, $48.95

Be & D Allen, $349.00

DV by Dolce Vita Daff, $71.95

It’s nice that the lighter two tone coloring breaks away from all the traditional black and brown. This would flatter a lot of women more and would minimize the shortening effect that gladiator sandals usually have. Some of these sandals also use combination materials – like leather and canvas or leather and suede – and doing that really shows off the other interesting designs on these sandals.

Another two-tone sandal was featured in the last Leighton Meester post, a close relative of the DV by Dolce Vita Delano, my particular favorite, from this post.

How are you liking this new gladiator sandal trend?
