Unless otherwise specified, all sizes in this post are listed in women’s.

1.

Strappy Sam Edelman slides you’ll want in several colors, since when a sandal’s this pretty, one pair just isn’t enough. Consider this your sign to start a sole-mate collection. 👡💖

Leopard-print sandals


Zappos

Promising review: “Love these shoes! Super cute and can dress them up or down.” —Zappos reviewer

Price: $49.99+ (originally $65; available in sizes 5–13, two widths, and 15 styles)

2.

Reef Cushion Breeze sandals at an affordable price point that look and feel like the best beach vacation you’ve ever experienced — pillowy soft, perfectly breezy, and ready to help you make some sandy, sun-soaked memories. ☀️🌊

The cloud sandals


Zappos

Promising review: “These are super comfortable flip-flops! You will not be disappointed. If you are more of a half size or between sizes, I would personally go up a size. The shoes fit narrow to medium-width feet. I would not recommend these if your feet are on the wider side.” —Eshter

Price: $40 (available in sizes 5–12 and six colors)

3.

Classic Birkenstocks reviewers rave are not only super comfortable, they’re also durable, timeless, and stylish enough to wear with just about anything. Basically, they’re the kind of shoes that make your feet (and your closet) very happy.

Zappos

Promising review: “I have very sensitive feet and I needed a shoe with more support than a flip-flop but for the summer. Great shoe!” —Zappos reviewer

Price: $135 (available in sizes 6/6.5–12/12.5, two widths, and two colors)

4.

Adidas Adilette Aqua slides which are wonderfully lightweight and waterproof, meaning that whether it’s a pool day or just an afternoon spent pretending you’re on vacation, your feet are fully in out-of-office mode.

Zappos

Promising review: “I took others’ advice and sized down. Normally, I wear a women’s 9.5–10, so I ordered the M8/W9, and the fit is perfect. Flip-flops rub a blister between my toes, so slides are a good alternative. These look sharp, and the price is right.” —CMM

Price: $19.17+ (originally $28; available in sizes 5–14 and two colors)

5.

Elegant flatform espadrilles that are a super versatile option for your warm-weather wardrobe. Dress them up for dinner or down with jeans a tee…either way, they really rise to any and every occasion.

The caramel sandal


Zappos

Promising review: “I bought these for a summer trip to France and have been wearing them at home the past few days. They were super comfy right out of the box! My feet are narrow with high arches and nearly 1/2 size different from one another. I usually wear 6.5 to 7 so, as recommended, I ordered down to a 6 and they are just right. The velcro straps are understated and function well. I think they’ll be perfect walking sandals for warm weather and they are clearly made to last. I was a little wary about the price but I think my feet and the shoes are worth the investment.” —Sheri

Price: $140 (available in sizes 6–11, two widths, and 13 colors)

7.

Waterproof Reef slides so easy to slip on, hard to take off, and always down to make a splash all throughout the warm weather season.

The natural slide


Zappos

Promising review: “I bought these in the tan color and they are great. I took these slides on a cruise, I wore them to dinner, to the pool, to the beach, and they are very versatile. I literally wore them every day for two weeks straight, and they still look great. If they get dirty, you just wash them. They’re very comfortable, and you can walk in them with no pain. Would definitely recommend to give them a try.” —Natalie

Price: $59.95 (available in sizes 5–11 and two colors)

Zappos

Promising review: “These are the best flip-flops ever. Perfect for wide feet and excellent arch support. I need to get several more of them! Be warned, though, just like all Crocs, they will shrink if left out in the sun or in a hot car. Use a hairdryer to re-stretch them and they are good as new.” —Laura

14.

Futuristic Oofos flip-flops with a cool metallic strap for a bold bit of sci-fi flair so you can pretend you’re strutting around Mars, even if you’re just walking down the driveway to get your mail. Intergalactic comfort? Mission accomplished. 🛸

Comfortable sandal with sleek, modern design and branded side logo, ideal for casual wear and shopping

Clarks Sea Breeze sandals, which I personally own because they make the PERFECT beach or pool shoes. They’re a fantastic alternative to flimsy plastic flip-flops with tons of arch support.

The red flip-flops


Zappos

Promising review: “I am not a fan of flip-flops, until now. I love these so much, I am trying to justify getting several pairs. I am a flat-footed size 11, and usually flip-flops have me limping after an hour. These took almost no time to break in, and I can wear them all day without wincing.” —L L

Price: $49.98 (originally $55; available in sizes 5–12 and 19 colorways)

18.

The black sandals


Zappos

Promising review: “These sandals are great. I have issues with plantar fasciitis and have trouble standing for long periods of time. These sandals helped me make it through an entire day at the Universal theme park in Orlando. I don’t think I would have done as well with other shoes. I highly recommend them.” —LSS

Price: $56+ (originally $70; available in sizes 5–11 and five colors)

19.

FitFlop toe-thongs that’ll make you want to tap dance even if you’ve never taken a lesson. They’re certainly supportive and surprisingly peppy for a flip-flop.

The white sandals


Zappos

Promising review: “Great shoes. Wore them all over Mallorca, up and down hills, and I never had a problem. Great support and super comfortable. I usually wear a 7 1/2, and the 7 fits perfectly. The 8s looked too big.” —Zappos Reviewer

Price: $90 (available in sizes 5–11 and six colors)

20.

Toms platform sandals with a little ’90s edge, which might just make you long to waltz over to a Blockbuster in them and grab a copy of Clueless.

Or Chaco sandals made from high-quality leather which are kinda serving “camp counselor” in the best way possible. Plus they contour to your footbed like they were custom made for your feet. Ready for s’more adventures?

The bone brown standals


Zappos

Promising review: “I really like these! Great arch support. This particular style isn’t as ‘summer camp’-looking as most Chacos, which is why I got them. Great for walking around the city. Love the navy blue. The system to tighten the strap across the foot is clever and makes them particularly easy to get in and out of. I can tell I’m going to wear the heck out of these.” —Rebecca

Price: $71.33+ (available in sizes 5–12 and three colors)

22.

Pointed-toe mules featuring a charming woven design for a subtly textured twist on your classic slide-on sandal, equal parts everyday ease and art gallery opening chic.

Price: $75 (available in sizes 5–11 and ten styles)

24.

A pair of Rothy’s slide sandals that are resort-wear ready and look ~way~ pricier than they actually are. Who can put a price tag on comfort, after all? Oh, and did I mention they’re machine washable? That’s what I call slip-on sophistication. 🏝️

The gilded crochet sandals


Zappos

Price: $99 (available in sizes 5–13 and three styles)

25.

Relaxed SAS comfort sandals with nifty adjustable straps so you can leave your feet woes far behind. Think all-day support, zero break-in drama, and the kind of fit that feels like they just get you.

The sunbeam sandals


Zappos

Promising review: “A terrific shoe. Beautifully made (here in the US). I have a narrow foot, but a bunion sticking out of my left foot and one growing upward on my right foot. Pretty hard to find a shoe that is nice and fits. This has many adjustments. It’s great with pants. Socks or not. Very, very comfortable. I highly recommend anyone with a foot problem to try this brand. Even with a problem, it’s a very good shoe and worth the price. Perfect.” —Marge D

Price: $198.95 (available in sizes 4–12, four widths, and 15 colors)

And Clarks Bali sandals with the brand’s signature foam footbed made for the days that start with “just a quick walk” and somehow turn into hours of exploring, errand-running, and spontaneous iced-coffee stops. With these on your feet, you’ll forget what tired even feels like.

The navy combo sandals


Zappos

Promising review: “Fit was exact even for my wide-width foot. Super comfy. I’m a teacher and on my feet all day, so I’m always on the lookout for comfortable shoes. Will probably buy another pair in a different [color].” —Zappos reviewer

Price: $63.75 (originally $85; available in sizes 5–12, three widths, and six colors)
