Summer is here, which means that it’s time to ditch those old actual fully-formed shoes from around your feet and air them out for the masses with some sandals! But, hold on a second there, buster.

Because there are some of them that simply just shouldn’t be worn by fashionable men about town, and if you’re caught in them, well, you can go ahead and forget about asking that girl out for a date to the beach.

So today we’re heading over to AskMen.com where they have a whole bunch to say about what sandals to wear, when to where they, and what women will think about them when you do. Among their suggestions is this necessary information:

These classic kicks are characterized by two straps about an inch in width that wrap over the top of the foot, or a single strap with a loop for the big toe.
