Naomi Osaka Slips Into Cork Wedge Sandals at Tag Heuer 5th Avenue Boutique in New York

For the event, the athlete donned a pair of platform sandals, closing out the summer season with a stellar footwear choice. The tennis star’s pick featured black cloth uppers and tan sturdy cork platform soles. The cloth straps sat overtop Osaka’s toes and around her ankles, knotted in place.

Rounded open toes gave way to wedge heels, further cementing those summer vibes. Similar sandal styles to Osaka’s own can be purchased from a variety of brands including Raye, Schutz, Chloe, Aldo, Asos and Steve Madden, among others.

The sandal silhouette imparted a beachy touch to the highly decorated athlete’s look, making for a casual but put-together moment. Osaka’s look proves that whether beach-bound or set to walk a red carpet, sandal heels can take you far.

Accompanying her sandals, Osaka sported a black blouse featuring voluminous sleeves paired with a gradient maxi skirt in shades of white, yellow and green. The skirt included a slit up the side, further diversifying the ombre silhouette.

For athletic occasions, Osaka can regularly be seen wearing colorful Nike sneakers, given her longtime partnership with the brand; she’s even designed custom sneakers for competitive matches and launched her own NikeCourt Air Zoom GP Turbo Naomi Osaka sneaker in 2021.
