Chanel Sandals

Our pre-owned Chanel sandals are authenticated in-house before listing. The signature of the category is the Chanel Dad Sandal — a chunky fisherman slide introduced under Karl Lagerfeld in the late 2010s with a CC-embossed strap — alongside the heritage jute-sole espadrille wedge made in Spain. Boutique retail sits around €750 for a pool slide and climbs higher for heeled or wedge styles; on JoliCloset, pre-loved pairs start well below that.

Key Chanel sandal models

Expect the pieces collectors actively track: the Dad Sandal / pool slide in lambskin, caviar or tweed; the quilted lambskin flat sandal with CC closure; the heeled sandal (block or kitten, often in bicolor beige-and-black); the tweed thong sandal from Métiers d'Art capsules; the espadrille wedge with jute sole and canvas, tweed or denim upper; and the rarer camellia-embellished evening sandal. Occasional mules and Lagerfeld-era archive pairs round out the edit.

Materials and manufacturing

Chanel works smooth lambskin, pebbled caviar leather, signature tweed, canvas, denim and braided jute. Leather sandals are produced in Italy or France; espadrilles are exclusively made in Spain at the house's dedicated atelier — any other origin should raise a red flag. Soles alternate leather, stamped rubber and jute depending on the silhouette.

How to authenticate

Checkpoints to run: the CHANEL insole engraving must be shallow, thin and crisp (fakes punch a thick, puffy, 3D stamp); quilt stitch-count per diamond stays consistent across the full strap; metal hardware is stamped CHANEL PARIS MADE IN ITALY, FRANCE or SPAIN depending on the workshop; no glue residue along seams. Important to know: Chanel sandals never ship with an authenticity card — the pair itself is the document.
