Collection: Sandals & Slides

At Pat Menzies, sandals are selected for how they’re actually worn during NZ summers — from walking and travel to everyday wear. The focus is on styles that offer comfort, breathability, and long-term durability.

Rather than thin, short-term options, the range prioritises sandals that can handle regular use while staying comfortable throughout the day.

Choosing the Right Sandals

Different sandals are designed for different uses. Some focus on support for walking and travel, while others lean more toward casual styling or lighter wear.

If you’re unsure where to start, our sandals guide breaks down the key styles, materials, and how to choose the right pair.

Leading Sandal Brands in NZ

The range focuses on brands that consistently perform well in real-world use.

Birkenstock is the most widely worn sandal brand, known for its contoured footbed and long-term comfort. Styles like the Arizona and Milano are popular for everyday wear and walking.

Teva offers lightweight, adjustable sandals designed for walking, travel, and outdoor use.

Dr. Martens provides more structured, style-driven sandals, with options like the Blaire and Myles offering a more fashion-led look while still being durable.
