I am still easing up on gladiator sandals. There are some flat ones I've been seeing a lot whenever I go out to places, and I'm starting to like those. While not in love with all gladiator sandals, at least times change for me. As for the pictures in Post #861, the one I dislike most is the gladiator sandals in the lower-left. The top ones are okay, and so is the one with the sparkly accents in the lower right. I'm also okay with those including the wooden platform.
