Marni Black Fisherman Sandals

open-toed shoes go, these look pretty standard. At least, at first! But when you discover that the soles are made of rubber, you'll feel as if your feet are so secure in them. Also, its overall look teeters between casual and simple and classic and chic. At times, they may look Biblical, yes, but there's also something about them that makes you think of vintage 90s fashion too!
