Once a niche nostalgic trend, jelly sandals have officially cemented their status as a warm-weather wardrobe staple—a trend ignited by The Row’s Pre-Fall 2024 collection, which saw models stepping out in colorful mesh jelly sandals as if they were heading to the rocky shores of the Mediterranean. The Olsen twins-approved resurgence of rubber shoes has caused a stir in the fashion world, with style insiders rushing to get their hands on the flats in one of the colors (blue, red, and clear, in case you needed a reminder).

Over the years, Jennifer Lawrence — and a devoted fan of The Row — has worn not only the brand’s coveted cage flats, but also an array of jelly styles, from fisherman sandals to PVC flip-flops. While fisherman styles have long had a place in summer footwear, her endorsement marks a notable shift, cementing the waterproof sandal’s return to the mainstream. If this season is anything like the last, these rubbery, mesh styles are popping up everywhere from the streets of New York City to the sun-drenched coastlines of Europe.
