51 Best Summer Sandals on Sale, From $12

April is now halfway over — if you can believe it — and that means summer’s return is just 10 weeks away. While that may sound like a decent chunk of time, temperatures across the United States have already begun inching toward 90 degrees Fahrenheit, so the window to properly stock your travel wardrobe with swimsuits, shorts, sandals, and sunglasses is closing rather quickly. 

If your warm-weather footwear rotation isn’t quite up to snuff, don’t sweat it (pun intended). Nordstrom Rack, Amazon, REI, and Zappos have hundreds of summer sandals on sale right now, with men’s and women’s flat sandals, stylish wedges, and hiking sandals as low as $12. Hurry, though: With summer fast approaching, these styles are bound to sell out.
