In some ways, boys' sandals don't change much from year to year: a flip-flop is still a flip-flop, and a slide is still a slide. But there are subtle changes, as well as advances in comfort, manufacturing, and durability that may make it worth your time to take another look. Below are a few of the season's top styles in sandals for boys.
1. Keen 'Newport H2' - Rugged Sandals for Boys
These boys' sandals offer protection in more ways than one: they have unique toe bumpers; they have quick-drying web uppers; and they have a cord-lock lacing system that provides a secure fit. On top of all those features, they have that unique Keen styling that has attracted legions of fans. These sandals are ideal for boys who need something a little bit tougher, or for days when they'll be playing near water.
2. Nike 'Sunray Thongs' - Sporty Thong Sandals for Boys
If your boy likes thong sandals, then you may want to have a look at the sporty 'Sunray' from Nike. Featuring quick-dry synthetic uppers, these flip-flops would be a great choice for wearing around the water, but they also look great on dry land.
3. Timberland 'Earthkeepers' - Eco-Friendly Boys' Sandals
If your child needs secure-fitting sandals, or if you appreciate environmentally-friendly products, then you might enjoy these slingback sandals from Timberland. At least 50 percent of the leather used in these boys' sandals is from tanneries with a Silver or higher rating from a third-party environmental auditing agency. And they look great too.
4. Sperry 'LargoThong' - Flip-Flop Sandals for Boys
Cool and casual, these simple boys' thongs feature canvas and leather uppers, and look fantastic in tan or dark brown. Perfect for pairing with jeans or shorts, these shoes nearly look too nice to be called "flip flops."
5. Hush Puppies 'Stinger' - Classic Boys' Sandals
Rugged and masculine, these boys' sandals feature ankle straps to help keep them in place, and soft leather uppers that keep them looking great. The dark brown shade is versatile enough to wear with anything, and of course, the Hush Puppies name is practically synonymous with comfort.
