Block-Heeled Sandals: The '90s Footwear That's Trending Again
Thinking about the event season that is about to begin, we have turned to some of our favorite stores to offer you the best block heel sandals for spring-summer 2026

This year we have decided to go comfortable to the big events, either with flat shoes or flat shoes, with wedge shoes or with kitten heels. The point is to dance until the end of the party and not regret at any time the shoes chosen for the occasion.
In this search for the perfect comfortable shoe for weddings, a key piece was missing - perhaps the most important of all those we have seen: the block heel sandals. "Characterized by their sensible (not too low, not too high) and wide heel (also called block heel) these sandals are a very comfortable and stylish option. Thus, they are perfect for everyday wear; they combine with jeans, skirts, dresses ... But also for special occasions that require a certain sobriety", explained shopping editor Mayte Salido about this type of footwear.
We love them for their style and also for what they represent. At a time when the trends of the 90s are booming, this shoe that reminds us of authentic icons of the decade as Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy, Jennifer Aniston or Gwyneth Paltrow, are also pure trend.
Thinking about the event season that is about to begin, we have turned to some of our favourite stores to offer you the best block heel sandals for spring-summer 2026. You're welcome.
