08.20.2010 | Critics of the jelly sandal clearly don’t understand that the only effective beach or pool footwear must be waterproof. Soggy leather thongs just don’t cut it. My summer seaside sandal of choice is this Chanel version, which is obviously chic but also durable and comfortable. I’ve had mine for several years, and they still look brand new. Next on my list is the black and white version. Clearly, a modern classic.
