The laces themselves, which offer versatility, can be worn multiple different ways depending on your style preference. Crafted from a delicate tumbled nubuck leather, they are designed to be "soft on your skin." Finished with the classic Airwair loop on the heel, these gladiator sandals are said to be "ready to go all summer". Whether paired with midi dresses and skirts or your favourite shorts, they will be pair well with virtually anything. The Nartilla Tumbled Nubuck Leather Gladiator Sandals have amassed an impressive 4.8 rating based on multiple reviews from devoted shoppers who have branded them "the best ever" and like "walking on air." One five-star review read: "In love with these… surprisingly comfortable from day 1. I walked for hours on the first day with no pain! Leather is soft… sole gives all the support needed. Got a ton of compliments… Sized down as advised." A second delighted shopper said: "I already had these sandals in black and loved and wore them so much last summer that I bought them in the olive as well. Very comfortable and stylish and I feel they go with almost everything!" Another Dr Martens shopper wrote: "Love them, they are light as feathers, like walking on air. I've just received the same ones but in brown leather which are the same. I'm now on one pair of boots and four pairs of sandals . Totally addicted, need comfort and value, got it with these thank you." Someone else praised: "Totally love my gladiator DMs - they are the best sandals ever for wide feet. Where have they been all of my life? I shall wear no other sandals till I die. They don't press on my bunion and they expand when tired feet swell in the summer heat. And they make me smile every time I put them on because the design is such a clever, minimalist take on the original DMs - just soles, eyelets & laces!" There was one shopper who was left disappointed with their purchase, as they said: "Awful. Stretched and bad fitting."
