Sandals have long been a staple for casual summer footwear, but in recent years, this trend has been changing. The keyword that has emerged as a trend in men's sandals is "elegance." Gurkha sandals, which have become an icon of dressy sandals, are gaining more attention every year, and various brands are releasing sandals with a chic appeal, such as those with high-quality leather uppers and subdued colors. What are some sandals that are perfect for shopping or dating and are totally on-trend this year? Here are some recommendations from Isetan Shinjuku Store, Men's Building .

The JoJo Naitou has been given a more refined look with its suede-like material.

JoJo Naitou, a popular brand at Isetan Shinjuku, is made by Naitou, a long-established footwear craftsman from Kyoto. Exclusively available at Isetan Shinjuku are these sophisticated sandals made with Excene (ultra suede) material. The chic brown color is also a refreshing choice.

Dark colors add depth to the look. Paraboot

PARABOOT is a top contender for adult Gurkha sandals. While black and light brown are standard options, surprisingly, dark brown was previously unavailable in the lineup. More natural than black and deeper than brown, it adds a more dressy touch. *Scheduled for release on July 10th (Monday)
