One reviewer even said they'd marry these lug sole sandals. I don't think it gets more comfortable than that.
Unless otherwise specified, all sizes in this post are listed in women's.
1. A stylish pair of Crocs heeled sandals that are giving Lizzie McGuire realness. Every time you wonder what shoes to wear, these cozy bad boys will scream, "ME! ME!"
Promising review:"True to size, they fit well. The quality is really good, and they're super comfortable. These shoes are very light. I haven't gotten any blisters from wearing these. They seem very durable, as the material can get wet, and it doesn't affect them. I got these in two colors, black and white! Both colors are nice and go with everything!" — Nely
2. Some Tommy Hilfiger sandals so gorgeous, you'll have a hard time saying no to them when they stare at you as you get dressed and contemplate what shoes to wear. I mean, wearing them for two weeks straight seems fine to me.
3. Some multi-strap chunky platform sandals you'll wanna throw on with everything in your closet. The '90s called, and this style is so on trend again. Don't they make you wanna listen to Spice Girls, eat some Dunkaroos, and play M.A.S.H.?
Promising review:"I bought these for a cruise and they were so comfy! They're very versatile and go well with lots of outfits. I wore them with everything. They surprisingly aren't slippery either, even when walking on slippery cruise ship decks. I wear between a size 10–11, depending on the shoe, so I bought an 11 just to be on the safe side, and I'm glad I did! There are two buckles, which allow you to adjust the fit. It's better to have to tighten the buckles to fit than to have to deal with them being too tight. They didn't give me blisters or even make my feet sore at all. They're super cute, comfy, and perfectly chunky. I'm buying a pair in every color." — TK
4. Some chic flat sandals that look like a clone of the more expensive Dior and Steve Madden ones. The only thing that wasn't cloned is the price (thankfully)!
Promising reviews:"High quality. Very versatile! So comfortable. Blister-free! Such a cute style, and they go with anything!" — Amazon Customer
" These are fabulous, comfortable, and give Steve Madden and Dior a run for their money. They are true to size. If you are sitting on the fence about these — don't wait!" — Caroline Ask
5. A platform sandal, aka the Steve Madden slinky sandal 's identical twin. These Y2K-esque cuties will def be your favorite shoes to reach for all spring and summer long.
Promising reviews:"Bought these because they kind of reminded me of the Steve Madden slinky sandals. I wore them through a whole week of walking around on vacation, and man, they were soooo comfortable. I was the only person who came home without blisters. 🤣 I also have wide feet, and these were stretchy and became more comfortable over time. I absolutely love them, way more than I anticipated!" — Tamlyn
"These shoes are fantastic! I used them for my two-week trip to Europe. So easy to dress up or dress down, and incredibly comfortable. I walked five miles a day in Italy on the uneven cobblestone, no blisters, no sore feet, nada! 10/10 recommend!!" — Natasha B.
6. A Crocs sandal because the most comfortable shoes in your closet are indeed your Crocs, but you don't wanna wear those clunky clogs with your milkmaid dress. These are perfectly cute enough to dress up or throw on with some simple denim shorts.
Promising review:"These were exactly what I hoped they would be in every way. They have arch support, have a slight spongy spring for shock absorption, and don't give me blisters on my feet even though I have bunions. I have really hard flooring, and it has really taken a toll on my feet, even making dinner had become excruciating, but all that is over now. I love these sandals!" — Michaela H.
7. A pair of chic-looking open-toe sandals sure to become the star of your shoe collection. They'll add a bit more fabulous to every outfit you own.
8. A pair of basic but definitely needed flat sandals that'll surely become a spring/summer fave because they go perfectly with literally every outfit you could dream of.
Promising review: "Wore these on vacation all around New York City and they were great! No blisters, and they were surprisingly comfortable considering how much I was walking." — Ashley Walker
9. A flat pair of sandals by Steve Madden with adjustable straps, arch support, and a molded footbed for a perfect blend of function and fashion.
10. A pair of simply stunning Steve Madden flat sandals that give vacation vibes to the max. Plus, reviewers say these are the perfect swap for the $700+ Hermès version that look suuuuper similar to these affordable ones. *Looks at my Amazon cart* ...oh, how did these get in there?
Reviewers suggest sizing up!
Promising review: "I bought these because they were not the overpriced Hermès version, yet had higher build quality than Target's cheaper version of the Hermès shoes. I like that these Steve Madden ones are made of leather, yet are in an affordable price range. They run a little narrow, but they did conform to my feet after a couple of wears. No break-in issues, like blisters. The sandals are versatile and can be dressed up or down. I am mostly wearing them to work." — Lauren C
11. A pair of orthotic sandals with cushioned arch support and adjustable straps, perfect for the summer vacay you have coming up, which will include tons of walking. If you've been searching for the perfect shoe for sightseeing in Europe, you just found 'em.
Promising reviews:"I MUST wear arch support shoes. I wore these sandals while touring Italy for nine days. I walked through cobblestone streets, gravel roads, dirt, and steep steps, and my feet were supported and NEVER hurt. I love these sandals, I encouraged my aunt to purchase a pair. The material is quality and durable. No blisters, no break-in period needed. The hook and loop is great for personally adjusting your fit. I ordered my typical size and they are PERFECT!" — Jennifer
" I have tried A LOT of sandals for walking in theme parks and these by far are the BEST! No blisters, no throbbing feet, all straps are adjustable and soft. I am blown away by these and will be ordering another pair in a different color." — Paige Wade
12. A cutesy pair of thong sandals that give Tory Burch vibes without the price tag. They've got a cushioned footbed and will quickly become your fave pair because they're just as comfortable as they are cute.
Promising review:"I have found that Tory Burch sandals don't fit me as well as they could (wide feet) for the money I'd be spending on them. These alternatives not only fit better, but they are significantly less expensive, and the quality is just as good! I wear them almost daily for work and have no irritation or blistering from them, even though they are brand new. If you are on the fence about purchasing these, I HIGHLY recommend that you do!" — Hannah
13. A pair of strappy Crocs sandals you've *probz* seen all over TikTok. If you've felt that, after the 25th time they've popped up on your FYP, it might be a sign to get them, then this is your biggest sign yet to throw 'em in your cart.
Check 'em out on TikTok!
14. A simple, cute pair of open-toe sandals that'll be easy to pair with jeans, shorts, skirts, dresses, palazzo pants, and any other cute warm-weather 'fits you have in mind.
15. A pair of jeweled boho sandals sure to rake in all the compliments and have everyone asking where you found these beauties.
Promising review:"I purchased these very last minute right before I left for a seven-day trip to Nicaragua, so I had zero time to break them in before leaving. Thankfully, they wore like a dream. Zero areas where they rubbed, NO blisters or irritation, very comfortable, fit true to size, and were very cute. Trust me when I say, aside from hiking, these were the primary shoes that I wore for the entire trip." — Amazing Customer
16. A chunky platform sandal that looks like it came straight outta Polly Pockets' closet. You may have had a similar pair in the '90s, and now you can break 'em out and style 'em again as an adult.
Amazon
Promising review:"They are super cute, comfortable, and fit true to size. I haven't experienced any blisters, pain, or rubbing so far, and have worn them for 8+ hours a day (mostly on my feet/walking around). They feel sturdy. I also like that they have that little extra toe coverage at the front. I'm considering other colors too. Definitely recommend." — ARW
17. A pair of espadrille platform wedge sandals with elastic ankle straps for optimal comfort. They're 3.5 inches high and look like they're begging you to book a vacation. You + these shoes + Cuba = absolute perfection.
18. An iconic-for-a-reason Teva sandal that screams, "Where's the beach?" in a Snooki voice. Their quick-drying material will keep you from walking around with heavy, wet shoes, and the adjustable strap will give you the perfect fit. How could your feetsies not fall in love?
Plus, the rubber soles will come in handy on slippery surfaces!
Promising review:"SIMPLY AMAZING! I purchased these to go camping. I wore these for tubing, kayaking, hiking, and swimming! They are super comfortable, adjustable to your feet, and have great traction. When they're wet, they perform the same as when they're dry. I wore these hiking up and down very steep mountains in very rocky terrain without any injuries or blisters! Couldn't recommend more!!" — Sasha
20. A pair of lug-sole sandals that are literally so, so cute, bold, and lightweight, and say, "The fashionable one has arrived." Strut like you mean it and make the Cheetah Girls proud.
Promising review: " I would marry these shoes. Day one, out of the box, comfortable with no break-in time needed. The color is accurate, they are soooo cute, light weight, good traction, quality (so far) is holding up, and the price is unbeatable. I am an admin at a school who is on my feet eight hours a day. No blisters or pain. I couldn't believe it. The fact that they're cute?! Take all of my money. I will be ordering more colors." — Mia
21. A pair of memory foam sandals because you can never go wrong with some slip-resistant slides that feel like you're walking on clouds.
Promising review:" These sandals are absolutely adorable and incredibly comfortable as new shoes. I wore them and didn't get a single blister. They fit me perfectly and are true to size. The memory foam is exceptionally comfortable; I could walk around all day without feeling tired. My feet are quite narrow, but with the adjustable straps, these sandals fit me comfortably." — danping
22. A pair of blinged-out sandals that'll definitely be an attention grabber. Perfect for any 'fit that feels like it could use a little extra ~something~ — these beauties are the lil' extra something.
Promising review:"I recently took a trip to Morocco, where we did a ton of walking, and these sandals were so comfortable and beautiful. I received a ton of compliments, and it was my first time wearing them, and I never had any problems with blisters or anything. Plus, none of the gemstones fell off. I took a chance and I'm glad I did. So if you are looking for a pretty, comfortable sandal, she is your girl. Now I will say I read some reviews where people said to go up half a size, and I did, but honestly, I think I could have stayed with my size. I definitely will be purchasing more sandals from this company, and they were very reasonable, and I love the rhinestones around the edges." — gerri g.
23. A pair of Reef vegan leather sandals with super comfy cushioned footbeds so you can be both comfortable and stylish as heck. Why choose between fashion and comfort when these babies deliver both?
Promising review:"I'm absolutely in love with my Reef sandals! These are hands down the most comfortable sandals I've ever owned. The cushioning is incredible — it feels like I'm walking on clouds. The footbed is perfectly contoured, providing great support, and I can wear them all day without any discomfort.
What I love most is how stylish they are. The design is simple yet chic, and they pair well with almost anything, from casual jeans to summer dresses. The straps are soft and don't rub against my skin, so no blisters even after long walks.
These sandals are also super durable. I've worn them everywhere, from the beach to the city, and they still look as good as new. Plus, they're water-friendly, so I don't have to worry about them getting wet. I highly recommend these sandals to anyone looking for the perfect blend of comfort and style. Reef really knocked it out of the park with these!" — Mike Gee
24. A pair of strappy platform heels that kinda give a low-key Bratz vibe, which always SLAPS. Reviewers are LOVING these 'cause they say they're comfy and easy to walk in.
Promising reviews: "I like heels, but I always take them off as soon as I can. The balls of my feet always hurt, and I can't stand keeping them on for longer than thirty minutes. But these shoes are AMAZING. I wore them for almost four hours CLUBBING and walking the streets drunk, and I had no pain at ALL. They're the best shoes I've ever bought, and I need more in other colors. You need them, I promise. I actually never write reviews because nothing has ever been deserving, but these are. Only problem I had was that the clasp broke on one of them, but they still close up and they're by far my favorite shoes I've bought." — Shree
"This had great reviews on comfort, and I'm not one to wear heels often, so that was a must. When I say these were the comfiest heels I've ever worn, I'm not being dramatic. I walked the Las Vegas strip in these and had no blisters or soreness at all." — Kailey
25. A pair of open-toe wedged sandals for any cute, casual outfit you have planned. You'll have to convince yourself to wear one of your other pairs of shoes for a change, 'cause you'll wear these so often.
Promising review: "I bought these for my vacation to Aruba and didn't have time to break them in before we left. They were easy to put on and comfortable right from the start! They can easily be dressed up or dressed down. They didn't rub wrong or leave any blisters, even after walking in them all night!" — R
26. A stylish pair of flat sandals that are simple enough to pair with everything. A quick, slip-on pair of flats will always be needed, and these are just too cute to pass up.
Promising review: " These sandals are so comfortable and didn't leave any blisters even after wearing them for the first time for practically a whole day. I was surprised at how good the strap across my foot felt. They have a little bit of stretch to them. They look so good! I'm definitely going to be buying them in the other colors. I typically wear a 7.5 and have a little bit of a wider foot, so I got them in an 8 and they fit perfectly." — Lynn Vega
27. A pair of strappy sandals by Crocs 'cause one thing about Crocs is they will forever deliver comfort on comfort on comfort. Look adorbz without sacrificing your poor feet.
28. A pair of double-buckle slides that, wait, are we really sure that these aren't Birkenstocks in disguise? I mean, they have to be cousins or something, right? They come in *so* many colors, and the straps can be adjusted for a perfectly customized fit.
Promising review: " These sandals are incredibly comfortable, yet supportive. They are softer than Birkenstocks, which are made of such stiff plastic that they gave me blisters after a single wearing, and I gave them away. These also come in a rainbow of fun colors. They do stretch out a bit after time, but you can just adjust the straps a little tighter." — lokipokey
"For a cheap sandal, I was not expecting much. However, when I got them, I was happy with how durable and lightweight they are! I took them with me to Hong Kong and Thailand, and ended up wearing them nearly every day, walking 5–8 miles per day in them. No blisters or anything. They do well in the rain/water too. I usually wear a size 7.5, but ordered a 7 and they fit well." — Merrricca
29. Or a pair of Cushionaire cork-bottom sandals made by the same makers of the TikTok–famous cloud slides! Reviewers say they're super similar to Birkenstocks — like, so similar, they could pull a Hallie and Annie Parent Trap trick.
Promising reviews: " I wore these for a full day at Disney and my feet didn't ache at all! And no blisters! I have wide feet, so finding a cute sandal is a struggle, but you can't beat these!" — Nicole Jacobson
"I bought these sandals before a three-week trip in Europe; I didn't want to pay for Birks, but did want something in a similar style with good arch support. I was a little skeptical about the low price, but gave them a they were the MOST comfortable sandals I've ever owned. I walked over 120 miles in them in three weeks on our trip and never once had foot pain. They broke in so quickly and were very supportive from the get-go — and still are! Highly recommend." — Han Lin
30. A Steve Madden sandal you'll wear so often, the other shoes in your closet will get jealous. This is the perfect style, and they're simple enough to wear with dressy or casual clothes.
31. Some lightweight hiking sandals since you plan to soak up as much nature and sunlight as possible this spring and summer. Cozy shoes with soft insoles are a must if you wanna explore without aching feet ruining the experience.
Promising reviews:" These held up all over Europe, including the ocean. I am someone who expects to get blisters — I perpetually have blisters, it is just the way of life, but I didn't get blisters from these sandals! A miracle." — Rachel Border
"So so so comfortable. They're my everyday go-to sandal. They're lightweight but feel very well-made. I love the adjustable straps, which make taking them on and off an easy process. Definitely feel like I got a great deal for these. I've even done some light hiking in them, and they passed the blister test. 10/10!" — Mallory
32. A pair of pillow sandals that reviewers are calling "ridiculously comfortable," and one reviewer even said they "saved" their feet during their pregnancy. You'll def want more than one pair.
Promising review:"Love these. I've been wearing them for a few months now, and I feel like they've held up great. I got the green ones and they look exactly like the pictures. When I first put them on, I thought maybe I could have sized up because I thought they might be a smidge too small. But they stretched a little bit after the first day, and they fit perfectly now. Will definitely be buying again. No blisters and lightweight. I'm a huge fan of the OOFOO brand, but these feel like they give just as much support, and I love the way these look." — William
Price: $23.99+ (available in sizes 4–16 and 15 colors)
33. A pair of sandals with braided straps perfect for just about every dang occasion. Work, happy hour, brunch — these versatile babes will def work overtime all spring and summer long.
Promising review:"I really needed a cute sandal for my baby shower because suddenly my feet swelled up. I thought these were cute and neutral. I had also seen someone say that these were stretchy for their wide feet, so I gave them a try. These are awesome for wide or swollen feet. I also find them to be comfortable, but I also have flat feet. I have never gotten blisters from them and can count on them to stretch with my feet throughout the day and not cut into them." — Brittany
Price: $16.14+ (available in sizes 6–11 and 11 colors/styles)
34. Or a pair of heeled mule sandals with braided straps that are easy to put on and can be worn with practically anything. They're bound to become a go-to shoe this summer, and people may even believe they're the popular, *more expensive* Dolce Vita ones.
They've got a 3.5-inch chunky heel.
Promising reviews: " Even though they were new shoes, I did not get blisters. They are the perfect height and super comfortable. The price is just too good for the quality. I have been wearing them nonstop since I bought them. Perfect for summer. I am ordering them in more colors. Also, they are a good swap for the Dolce Vita heels." — Tryphena
"These shoes are great! I'm not one to wear heels, but I needed them for a formal dinner in Nashville. I made it all night without getting blisters or my feet hurting without breaking them in. They were true to size. Highly recommend." — Brooke A
Price: $29.99+ (available in sizes 5–11, regular and wide sizes, and 20 styles/colors)
35. A pair of strappy sandals with toe rings because, c'mon, does it really get much cuter than these? Surely a warm weather staple.
Amazon
Promising review:"I bought these very last minute as cute pool/beach sandals for a two-week trip to Asia. I figured I'd ruin them quickly and wouldn't care because they weren't very expensive. When they arrived, I threw them in my suitcase straight out of the box. Let me tell you, I wore them not only to the pool and beach, but with nice dresses to dinner, as water shoes in the ocean, shower shoes, AND once in a pinch, moved the last strap to behind my heel and HIKED A MOUNTAIN. I'm beyond impressed with the quality, versatility, and comfort. I wore them every day for two weeks and never got a blister." — TF
Price: $29.99 (available in sizes 6–11 and seven colors)
36. And finally, a pair of boho sandals that'll go perfectly with that tiered, flowy maxi skirt you're dying to pull out.
Amazon
Promising review:"Love these sandals! They fit as described. The instep is soft and comfortable. The leather straps did not pinch or rub blisters on my skin." — DeAnn E.
Price: $16.99+ (available in sizes 6–13 and nine colors/styles)
