Size 8 Sandals for Women: Where to Buy in the UK

AI-generated illustration made for this guide, not a product from any shop listed.

Quick answer: UK 8 has more shops with sandals than any other size we checked: 24, with footbed, strappy, wedge and heeled styles and fits from Standard to 6E-8E. Marks and Spencer’s own brand is still here. Simply Be, JD Williams, Next and Yours all have a wide choice in E and EEE or their equivalents, and DB Wider Fit Shoes and Cosyfeet go wider. Crispins Shoes and After 8 Shoes list an 8.5.

  • Foot length for UK 8262 mm to 26.8 cm

At 8 you can shop for sandals much as anyone else does, by brand and style rather than by who happens to reach your size. The big lists are at Next, Marks and Spencer, ASOS, Simply Be and JD Williams, and they hold brands such as Birkenstock, FitFlop, Teva, REEF and Skechers. That ends abruptly. At Clarks the list shrinks to one style at 9, and Marks and Spencer’s own brand goes. So if you take an 8, this is the page where comparing fit, returns and brands is worth your time. Most of the others in this guide are about finding anything at all.

We checked shops’ own websites on 31 October 2026. Long Tall Sally, Yours, Evans, Simply Be, JD Williams, Next, Very, Marks and Spencer, Clarks, Cosyfeet, DB Wider Fit Shoes, Crispins Shoes, Otto and Ivy and After 8 Shoes were read through their filters and store data, and ASOS, Office and Shoe Zone through their filters. At Birkenstock, FitFlop and Crocs we read one kind of sandal, and at Pavers two products. Hotter, Dr. Martens and Joules come from their own pages as shown in search results. After 8 Shoes and Otto and Ivy label these sandals in EU sizes, so their UK 8 is our reading. Most delivery and returns terms were read on 30 October. We did not check prices, and availability changes daily.

Everything here sits on a shop’s women’s pages, and FitFlop’s Lulu and Crocs’ size tab are women’s-labelled. The Birkenstock, FitFlop and Crocs rows are toe posts, and the Joules row is a flip flop. Clogs in shops’ lists are not counted. Other sizes at those brands were not read. LTS is short for Long Tall Sally. “Not checked” means we did not record that detail. Delivery and returns are the standard UK terms, most read on 30 October 2026, as shown in search results where marked.

Birkenstock

We read Birkenstock's thong sandals only. The Gizeh and Mayari list 8, labelled EU 42, in regular and narrow widths. Availability by size could not be read on the page. Its delivery page gave EVRi at £5.95 or Royal Mail at £9.95 on 30 October, with EVRi free only for members on orders over £100.

Footbed and sport sandals at size 8

Footbed styles are easy to find at this size. Long Tall Sally and Yours both list them, the second in E and EEE. Office has BIRKENSTOCK Arizona and the OFFICE Serena. Crispins Shoes has walking, flat and heeled sandals from Elata, Remonte, Hartjes and others, and Clarks lists DashLite Wish sport sandals.

Strappy, wedge and heeled sandals at size 8

Long Tall Sally’s gladiator, cross over and rope wedge styles are all here, and Yours has diamante heels and platforms in wide fits. DB Wider Fit Shoes has the Francesca wedge. As shown in search results, Dr. Martens has a platform gladiator in the Blaire Quad Hydro. Crispins Shoes’ heeled sandals sit beside its walking ones.

Toe posts, flip flops and mules

Birkenstock’s Gizeh and Mayari, FitFlop’s Lulu, Crocs’ Crocband Flip and Skechers toe posts at Pavers are all listed at 8. Joules’ Sunvale is a flip flop, as shown in search results. For mules, Long Tall Sally has a leather cut out mule and Yours a cut out mule in wide fits.

Clogs we did not count

Crocs clogs appear in Next’s sandals list at 8, and Office’s list also holds clogs. Neither counts here. Simply Be and JD Williams also have slider filters, which we read at 9.

What changes at 9

  • Marks and Spencer: its list is other brands only.
  • Clarks: one style, the Serina35 Strap heeled sandal.
  • Pavers and Joules: Pavers is not confirmed at 9, and Joules’ Shop By Size filter stops at 8, as shown in search results.
  • DB Wider Fit Shoes: it still lists 9, with fewer styles.
  • Shoe Zone: far fewer sandals, though its Lilley and Softlites names go on.

Our size 9 sandals guide covers the shops that keep going.

How to measure your feet for size 8 sandals

Long Tall Sally, Yours Clothing and Marks and Spencer give 262 mm for a women’s UK 8, Clarks 263 mm and Shoe Zone 26.8 cm. Yours and Marks and Spencer also give joint girths, shown under width fittings below.

How to measure your foot length A foot on a sheet of paper with the heel against a wall. A line marks the tip of the longest toe, and the distance from the wall to that line is the foot length in millimetres. Wall Foot length, mm 1 Heel against the wall 2 Mark your longest toe 3 Measure wall to mark, both feet
Measure both feet in the evening, when they are at their largest, and use the longer one.
  1. Stand barefoot on a sheet of paper, heel to the wall.
  2. Mark your longest toe and measure from the wall.
  3. Wrap a soft tape round your joints if you are comparing widths.

Width fittings at size 8

Yours Clothing’s chart gives a joint girth of 252 mm for E and 264 mm for EEE, and Marks and Spencer’s 256 mm for Standard (D) and 265 mm for Wide (E). Long Tall Sally’s single figure is 246 mm. Simply Be, JD Williams and Next all filter by width at 8, and Very lists New Look in Wide and Extra Wide Fit. DB Wider Fit Shoes goes furthest, and it gives each style its own fitting. Birkenstock’s thong sandals come in regular and narrow.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I buy sandals in size 8?

We found 24 shops, from Next, Marks and Spencer and ASOS to specialists such as Crispins Shoes, DB Wider Fit Shoes and Cosyfeet.

Are there EEE sandals at 8?

Yes. Yours and Evans list them under 8EEE, and Simply Be and JD Williams have Extra Wide (EEE) in their filters.

Does Marks and Spencer list its own sandals at 8?

Yes. Its list at 8 holds its own brand with Dune London, Jones Bootmaker, Teva and others. At 9 we found other brands only.

Is there an 8.5 sandal?

Crispins Shoes and After 8 Shoes list 8.5 on some styles, and Very has it in its filter. Long Tall Sally, Yours and Evans list whole sizes only, and Next's halves skip 8.5.

Do Crocs count as sandals here?

Not Crocs clogs. The Crocband Flip is a toe post, so that does count, and it is the one Crocs style we read.

Is a women's UK 8 an EU 41 or EU 42?

Long Tall Sally and Yours say EU 41. Marks and Spencer, Clarks, Simply Be, JD Williams, Next and Crispins Shoes say EU 42.

Shops were checked on their own websites on 31 October 2026, and most delivery and returns terms on 30 October 2026. Where we say so, details come from a shop’s own pages as shown in search results. We did not check Amazon UK’s listings.
