Review:

Miu Miu’s playful take on a gladiator sandal has taken the fashion scene by storm. The stretch thong boots, available in both leather and suede in a multitude of colors, remain a cool-girl “it” item since their debut on the Spring 2023 runway.

With a snug, sock-boot fit around the calves, the boot seamlessly transitions into a split-toe sandal—creating the perfect transitional shoe for most seasons. The manageable, under-2-inch heel make these shoes the perfect shoe to pack for a vacation or to wear navigating the city streets. They are the perfect complement to Miu Miu’s barely-there miniskirts, providing an edgy balance to the over-the-top girly looks from the past few seasons.

Leaning into the popularity of the boots, Miu Miu has expanded both the colorways and materials, and introduced a price increase in 2024. Sure to be an archive piece for the house, the thong boots have been the emblematic icon of the brand for the past several seasons—serving up Miu Miu’s signature risque whimsy with a dose of sultriness.
