Amazon's 'light as a cloud' sandals that are 'better than Birkenstocks' for under £22
Comfy footwear is 'in' for summer 2025 and these sliders will do just the job.
Finding the right sandals for summer can be difficult. While it's important that they be comfortable, we also want them to be a little bit trendy.
For the shoppers still on the hunt for a pair that can be considered fashionable, then the hunt is over, as these KuaiLu Womens Slides on Amazon are currently the subject of glowing reviews from thousands of shoppers.
Currently retailing at as low as £21.84, down from £26.99, they pose a budget-friendly alternative to some other major brands that also provide orthotic designs for those who struggle with pain related foot issues.
Offering a "lightweight" and "soft" design, these sliders are easy to wear for long periods at a time. With their double adjustable straps, they are said to hug every foot type and offer a perfect fit for everyone.
The main reason shoppers love them is because of the ergonomic design that offers an orthotic footbed and arch support to provide a "supportive" fit. Meanwhile, there is also a deep heel cup that provides extra support when standing and walking.
As of writing, Amazon stocks these sliders in sizes three to nine, with half-sizes included, in 15 different colours that include beige, tan, black, fuchsia and dark blue.
For those who do suffer from any issues such as plantar fasciitis, then Skechers remains a go-to brand, and we have spotted the brand's On The Go Vacay Womens Flip Flops for just £27.99 over at Sports Direct.
Shoppers can also get a little bit of extra cushioning and support with these Vionic Unisex Rejuvenate Recovery Arch Support Sandals that offer a chunkier design for £85 at Next.
Meanwhile, shoppers looking to make a bit of a saving, then Amazon's KuaiLu Sliders offers a budget-friendly pair that have earned a four star rating from those who say they "fit like a glove" and are also "better" than major brand Birkenstocks.
One five-star review read: "These fit like a glove and are as light as a cloud! I have very sensitive feet and I am able to wear these all day with no pain in my feet or my back. Love how you can adjust the top strap to keep my feet snug in the sandal. I like them better than my Birkenstocks! Highly highly recommend!"
Fashion deal of the week
In need of new trainers, but don't want to pay Skechers prices.
Then these STQ Women's Slip-On Trainers are said to be "much better" than the famed brand. Even better, they are currently priced from just £30.99 on Amazon.
With their slip-on style design and ultra-breathable mesh material, these trainers are said to be a fuss-free option for anyone who spends long periods of time on their feet, alongside anyone who suffers from foot pain issues such as plantar fasciitis.
The flexible knitted material features an elastic cuff, making them easy to pop on and take off, while the wide fit fabric has been designed to make it feel like you are wearing nothing on your feet.
Crafted with over 1,000 ventilation holes, they ensure that feet don't get to sweaty during wear, while the memory foam insole provides good arch support, making it feel "like walking on air".
Available to buy in sizes three through to eight, shoppers can select from eight colours including black, grey and pink. However, it's worth noting that the £30.99 price-tag is available on the black colourway.
With the STQ Trainers posing the cheapest price-tag, shoppers might be happy to hear that they have earned a 4.4 rating based on over 5,000 Amazon reviews that suggest they are "light as a feather" and "really comfortable".
One delighted shopper said: "Super lightweight, comfortable and a fab colour pink. Much better all round than the Skechers I bought at four times the price! Your feet will love these."
A similar review read: "I was getting tired of my Birkenstocks wanted a pair of cute summer sandals, that were supportive and affordable. These are perfect! Comfortable slip ons that are like an elevated slide which arch support and style!"
Someone else praising the sliders wrote: "Cute and the most comfortable sandals I have ever worn. They stay on my feet and I'm never worries that they will slip off. I also have had feet pain and they help ease any pain after a long day on my feet."

A few shoppers have found the design to be a little on the narrower side, which might be worth taking into consideration if you usually purchase a wide-fit.
One review with this issue read: "Very light material with foam bottom. I have wide feet and these were extremely narrow. Did not work for me but if you have average or narrow feet these would be ok. Little pricey for the type of quality and material in my opinion."
While someone else happy with their purchase added: "These are great sliders a must for the holidays if u don't like the normal toe post sliders . These are like slippers on."
