Personally, we feel that Gladiator shoes / sandals / boots will be one of those styles in years to come where people look back and say, What were we thinking?  (and do NOT even get me started on the tres tacky creation that are Gators!)

However, if you haven’t seen the gladiator sandal yet most likely you’ve been living under a rock (and I wish I had been there with you).   We aren’t sure whether they were inspired by ‘Troy’ and/or ‘Gladiator’ a few years ago or just a fashion waiting to be resurrected from a distant past the strap-covered sandal is a huge hit.

No matter the color, high-heeled or flat, metallic or matte, the gladiator is the sandal of the season. Above is a High-Leg Gladiator from Ash fro $266. Other offerings from Farfetch bring multiple designers’ views of this iconic shoe to one accessible place. Peruse the gallery to see the possibilities.
