Ask my inner preteen to dream up a list of summer trends and jelly sandals would undoubtedly claim the number-one spot. That said, I never actually thought I’d see the return of the best sandal trend in history—not that I’m complaining! As part of Gen Z’s mission to recreate the early aughts fashion they missed out on while still in diapers, they’re bringing back quirky rubber sandals in a big way for 2021.
Jellies are superior sandals for a multitude of reasons. First, they make me feel like a Polly Pocket doll, which is almost always the goal when I’m getting dressed. Second, jellies come in all different colors, so you can play it safe with a wear-with-everything clear pair or opt for sunny yellow, barbie pink or even sky blue. Third, modern-day jellies are comfortable, so rid your mind of any childhood blisters and prepare for some shoes your feet will thank you for.
If you feel like you’re too old for this look, let me stop you right there. Rubber footwear is approved for all ages! You can go full-on kitschy nostalgia with chunky silhouettes by Jessica Simpson and Calvin Klein, but brands like Tory Burch, Coach and SCHUTZ have all debuted thinner, more minimalist jelly slides that are positively chic.
Below, check out my top jelly sandal must-haves for summer 2021. Buy just one pair, buy a few—either way, you won’t regret it. Prepare to garner compliments from every intimidating Gen Z fashionista that spots you on the street this summer.

Another bougie T-strap option, Tory Burch totally nailed these chic jellies. I think the shade Green Valley is especially luxe, but there are six others if you need options!
