Indians personally love to wear sandals because it’s comfortable and easy to wear. It is not comfortable to wear socks and shoes all the time. The weather in the country is hot most of the year and it only makes sense for people to avoid wearing shoes all the time and get rid of sweaty feet. If it’s not hot in India then it is definitely raining. Wearing shoes and socks during the rains and walking around in drenched feet almost all the times is a big NO NO!
Moreover in India, there is a tradition of removing footwear before entering into temples and people generally remove footwear before getting into the house. So, in these cases sandals are an easy pick!
Wearing shoes and keeping your feet covered all the time in the Indian climate will make your feet itchy and sweaty! Wearing shoes on every day basis is impractical. Now we know why most people prefer sandals over shoes.
Another major reason for people choosing sandals over shoes is the wide variety of options available in the market. There is a huge variety of sandals out there in the footwear world and one can choose from different varieties and colors which will complement all kind of outfits. Also, most sandals are less expensive than shoes. One can buy up to 2 to 3 pair of sandals at the cost of one shoe.
When it comes to price, sandals are very cheap and it is easy for everyone to afford. Own a pair of sandals and you are ready to go anywhere at any time. Moreover it is a matter of sustainability more than fashion.
