The Jandal as the Summer Staple
The Kiwi Classic but make it fashion
Spotted at NZ Fashion Week, the jandal has stepped into the spotlight as the ultimate summer staple. There is no shoe more iconic to New Zealand than the jandal, and this season it has been reimagined for fashion. From heeled to flat, chunky to minimal, the jandal has moved far beyond the beach to become a versatile piece seen on both runways and city streets.

Tailored with a Twist
Tailoring takes on a fresh edge when worn with jandals. Crisp shorts or an oversized blazer instantly feel lighter when matched with a strappy pair of sandals. The play between structure and ease gives your look confidence without feeling overdone. It is tailoring redefined for warm weather. We spotted the Lennon Heel by Bronwyn on @troiatkins at NZ Fashion Week, a perfect example of the effortless polish behind the jandal trend.

The Casual Edit
For easy summer days, nothing feels better than a flowy dress that moves with the breeze. Ground it with a clean leather jandal and the look becomes more than just casual. It is relaxed yet chic, a nod to effortless summer dressing. We spotted @connielangbrown at NZ Fashion Week in the Bronwyn platform sandal, showing just how pretty and versatile this pairing can be.

Why We’re All About Jandals
The appeal of the jandal lies in its honesty. It’s uncomplicated, versatile and deeply connected to summer living in New Zealand. And now, with designers reworking the silhouette in leather, heels and modern shapes, it has become a true fashion item. No longer just for the sand or the street, the jandal is proof that the most iconic Kiwi shoe can be both timeless and stylish.
