THERESA | Sandals with an adjustable T strap

Nothing between my toes, which rules out about ninety percent of what is in the shops every summer.

The thong sandal took over some years ago and never left, and for a lot of us it simply does not work. A post between the toes rubs, and if you have a bunion or a joint that has shifted at all, it rubs in exactly the wrong place. So summer arrives and the choice is a closed shoe in the heat or a sandal that will hurt by two o'clock.

A T-strap solves it the old way. The strap runs up over the foot instead of between the toes, holding it securely without touching anywhere sensitive, and it adjusts. The footbed is softly cushioned and shaped to keep the foot aligned, and the whole sandal is built to breathe. Six colors, from beige and gray to orange, yellow and blue.

Why women our age keep coming back to them

• Nothing between the toes. The T-strap holds the foot from above, which is the difference between a sandal you can wear all summer and one you take off at lunch.
• The strap adjusts. You set the hold yourself, so a narrow foot is not sliding around and a wide one is not squeezed.
• Soft cushioning underfoot. The footbed is padded and shaped, so the foot is supported rather than simply resting on a flat sole.
• They stay cool. Open construction means they are still comfortable in the afternoon rather than only in the morning.

How they fit

This pair is sold in European sizes, 35 through 43, so use the chart instead of your usual US number. They run true to size and the strap takes up any slack. If you are between two sizes, take the larger one.

I have not been able to wear a flip flop since my bunion surgery. These I can wear.

The yellow is cheerful without being loud. I get compliments on them at church.
