This summer’s fashion trends are all about versatility – and there’s nothing quite as versatile as a black platform sandal. The color and added height complement a wide range of outfits, making this style ideal for an equally wide variety of occasions. Pair them with even the most elegant evening gowns for an evening of comfortable luxury, or wear them everyday with your favorite denim and summer dresses. The possibilities are literally endless.

Selecting the best black platform sandal style

There are a wide variety of black platform sandals, from flip-flops to slides. Pick a style that will best suit your most frequently worn looks. If you’ll be spending your summer in capri, opt for black platform flip flops that you can wear from beach to outdoor dinner. Plan on suburban adventures and rooftop cocktails? Choose a black platform slide with a modern silhouette to elevate your style. More of a leggings and denim girl? Choose a sporty athleisure silhouette that you can casually sport all season long. 

Choosing the right platform height

To get the max use out of you platform sandals, make sure to select a platform height that’s best for your lifestyle. Our #1 best selling platform Flow features a 3” boost with a sporty EVA flex sole. It’s hyper chic for the girl on top, but that kind of height isn’t for everyone. If you’re looking for something a bit more comfy, pick a black wedge like Infinity with a sleek asymmetrical design that will modernize your ensemble. Or, stick with the classics and select a block heel platform mule like the Freja for a style that easily transitions from day to night. Want to go even lower? Costa in black is a chic padded thong with way more style than your average flip flop, and Cyprus and Reno are super comfy black flatform sandals on a modest 2” platform that makes them easy to wear all day every day. black platform sandals outfit
