Frankie Bridge has been sharing her summer fashion must-haves, which include these trending fisherman sandals from ASOS which she says are the ‘shoe of the summer’
Summer is all about finding the perfect pair of sandals, and this year the trending style to have in your wardrobe is a pair of fisherman sandals. The perfect hybrid between a breezy strappy design and a more closed-toe trainer look, the fisherman sandals are cool, comfortable and easy to style, which is why one of our favourites for fashion inspo, Frankie Bridge, declared them the “Shoe of the season”.
The exact pair she picked was the ASOS DESIGN Midas Fisherman Flat Shoe in Taupe Suede, which are still available for £60 in sizes three to eight. With their suede finish, caged design and gold hardware they’re the perfect choice for looking luxe on a budget, whilst still keeping that all-important cool factor.

Frankie’s go-to ASOS sandals featured in her Frankie’s Faves series on Instagram, where she styled them with a co-ordinating slouchy brown leather bag and a pair of rectangular sunglasses for an effortless off duty look. The Midas Fisherman Sandals are made from real leather with a brushed suede finish, which makes them soft and supple and comfortable to wear.
The resin rubber soles are also flexible and soft, so you can walk around in them all day without getting aching feet. They fasten with an adjustable gold buckle at the ankle, so you can get the perfect secure fit.
Whilst the ASOS pair have a thinner flat sole, if you prefer a slightly chunkier look, FatFace’s Elodie Tan Brown Fisherman Sandal are a great alternative. Priced at £65, they have a thick rubber sole and a thicker cage-like design, with contrast stitching, and are perfect for getting that slightly more androgynous, laid back look.
Shoppers have hailed them for how comfortable they are thanks to their cushioned soles, and they’re available in sizes three to eight. Meanwhile Marks and Spencer’s Wide Fit Suede Fisherman Sandals are ideal for those with broader feet, and feature a slingback design with a more fully closed toe.
At £49.50 the M&S pair are also more affordable than Frankie’s ASOS pick, making them great for anyone on a tight budget. Reviews have also praised the wider straps for being comfortable on thicker ankles, saying they’re comfortable enough to wear all day.
If you prefer a slightly edgier look, the ASOS Midas Fisherman Sandals also come in black leather as well as the taupe suede pair Frankie chose, and are also priced at £60 – although currently the size fives are reduced to £22.50. Whilst there’s currently no reviews on the ASOS sandals, we’re taking Frankie’s endorsement as proof that they’re a fantastic comfy pick for the summer.
