Forever 21 Released a Nostalgic Series of Sandals for the Summer
Riley von Niessen — June 2, 2017 — Fashion
After Rihanna joined with PUMA to release the 'Jelly Slides' that commemorate youthful 1990s fashion choices, Forever 21 released its own version of the nostalgic style, which is simply dubbed the 'Jelly Sandals.'
The Jelly Sandals come in three feminine colorways that are mostly transparent, with shades of pink, purple, and baby blue making up the series. Unlike the Jelly Slides, Forever 21's version features a strap on the heel that can be tightened for a more comfortable and secure fit by adjusting the silver clasp that's outfitted on the front of the ankle.
The toes of the Jelly Sandals are protected with a closed design that has cut-outs throughout, which make them both breathable and versatile.
