The Story

The Benjamin is a lightweight travel sandal built for women who need a shoe that can keep up with a packed itinerary. Crisscross stretch ankle straps provide a secure, flexible fit that moves with your foot, and a reinforced toe strap with a leather underlay keeps your toes from sliding forward on uneven ground. It's a small detail that makes a real difference on cobblestone streets and long walking days.

A padded insole delivers cushioned comfort from morning sightseeing to evening dinners, and the 1-inch faux-cork wedge gives you a subtle lift without any of the instability of a taller heel. The elastic upper stretches to accommodate your foot shape, making the Benjamin a comfortable option for women with bunions or wider feet.

The Benjamin is also machine washable. After a week of vacation wear, just toss them in the wash and they come out looking fresh. That kind of easy care is what makes this sandal a packing essential.

Handmade in Mexico, the Benjamin is available in 10+ colors and finishes, from classic Linen and Denim to ruffle-detail and shimmer options. Whether you need a go-to travel sandal, a comfortable everyday flat, or a machine washable shoe you can style up or down, the Benjamin has been a best seller for a reason.

How does the Benjamin fit? Should I size up or down?

What's the difference between the Benjamin and the Atlantic?

Both are 1-inch wedge sandals with crisscross straps that are machine washable and made in Mexico. The Benjamin has a reinforced leather toe strap and crisscross ankle straps, making it especially travel-friendly. The Atlantic has a slingback strap and a faux-cork sole. Choose the Benjamin for a more secure fit on active days, or the Atlantic for a relaxed slingback vibe.

What makes the reinforced toe strap different?

The Benjamin's toe strap has a piece of leather underneath the stretch material. This prevents your toes from sliding forward, which is especially helpful on cobblestone streets, slopes, or other uneven surfaces during travel.
