Gucci Elevates These '90s Jelly Cage Sandals With Crystals and Gold
A luxury take on a childhood classic.
The ’90s look is on trend this summer, and when it comes to footwear nothing makes us more nostalgic than retro jelly sandals. Although now we’re a little more grown up, it can be nice to find childhood favorites that are updated with a more sophisticated and luxe appeal. Gucci‘s white Crystal Cage sandals are the perfect combination of both, and will be an elegant addition to your outfit on sunny days.
Crafted in Italy, these rubber sandals arrive in a creamy white hue and boast a shape reminiscent of the classic sandals from years past. The cut-out detailing is ideal for the summer season, and the slingback style is both practical and fashionable. In true Alessandro Michele style, the footwear takes on an eccentrically stylish feel with large crystals scattered across the upper. Adding to the outré appeal is Gucci’s signature double G logo on one foot in an antique gold-tone finish, whilst the house’s tiger emblem sits on the opposite foot. Completing these chic sandals are golden buckles which fasten the ankle strap and Gucci text branding debossed on the footbed and heel strap.
You can pick up a pair of these glamorous shoes at SSENSE for $650 USD. For more extravagant jelly sandals, check out Jimmy Choo’s silver glitter version.
