Promising review: "It has been a few years since I've purchased a Birkenstock sandal. My first pair lasted 12 years! Oh my goodness, the comfort is amazing. As soon as I put the sandal on, it just fit, and the cork started forming to my foot. They are a little bit stiff at first, but after wearing them for just a week, my foot pattern is part of the shoe. Birks are great, classic, all-around comfortable sandals. I wear them with shorts and jeans mostly. I couldn't be more pleased!" —jaden

Get them from Birkenstock for $139.95 (available in women's sizes 4–12.5, men's sizes 6–17.5, two widths, and in four colors).

You already guessed it — my pair lasted a good six years of HEAVY use. Considering the fact that I wore these for several 7–10 day vacations where I'd be walking miles each day, I'm genuinely surprised they didn't wear out sooner.

Promising review: "These are the best sandals made. I will never wear any other sandal every day. I've worn this style in August in Disney World, St. Augustine, Grand Canyon, Zion, Bryce, Las Vegas, and I can walk forever. Every color is attractive. Nothing ever rubs; there is no break-in required. I wear an 8.5 to 9 and order a 39. I have a slightly wider forefoot, and like my toes to spread — the regular has plenty of room for this. I can't stand a thong between my first and second toes, but with these, you can't even feel it. I hope they never get rid of this style." —Anonymous

Get them from Zappos for $112.95 (available in sizes 5–11.5 and five colors).

Promising review: "These sandals are really comfortable. This is the fourth pair I've purchased, and every pair fits fine. There are several holes punched into the straps so they can be adjusted to your foot size. The toe straps on these ones are soft, the leather ones are a bit stiffer and might require some wearing in time. I found that if I tighten the foot straps closer to my toes, there isn't much pressure from the toe straps. This pair didn't require any break-in time. My first pair was the dark leather, and they lasted about four years before I had to replace them. The other three are new. I bought a variety of colors to go with different outfits." —The Anderson Family

Get them from Amazon for $34.98+ (available in sizes 5–12, including wide sizes, and in 20 styles). 

Macarena Collection is a small biz based in Buena Park, California, and specializes in colorful Mexican shoe and clothing designs. 

Promising review: "These are just as cute if not more in person!! I love the colors, and they’re super comfortable. Full disclosure, I got super drunk the first night I wore these and was fine walking for hours. I would totally recommend these!" —Christine Soegaard

Get them from Macarena Collection on Etsy for $69.67 (originally $92.90; available in sizes 5–11). 

Plus, the rubber soles will come in handy on slippery surfaces!

Promising reviews: "They are so comfortable and durable. I have had these shoes for five years and they are still intact. I have a hard time finding sandals that are comfortable for walking anywhere because I have very big and sensitive feet. These shoes have gave me not only comfort but confidence. I will continue to buy this brand of shoe." —michele rhoades

Get them from Amazon for $59.95+ (available in sizes 5–14 and dozens of styles).

FYI: Many reviewers suggest sizing down!

Promising reviews: "Love these shoes! I wear these all summer with shorts, dresses, everything!!! They’re super comfortable and durable. I can walk for hours in these. I have them in five different colors." —mimi13

"These slides are — and I mean this in the best way — marshmallows that mold to your individual feet. They are SOOOO comfortable. I’ve been working from home since the start of the pandemic, and I ordered them to wear in my house after I read that walking around barefoot long-term isn’t great for your feet. I wanted something with a little support, but that would be comfortable. The reviews for these looked good so I ordered a pair, and now I never want to take them off. The material in every part is molded and squishy, so there are no unexpected parts that dig into your skin or chafe. But they’re structured enough to provide some support for your arches. 10/10 highly recommend!" —Carrie B

Get them from Amazon for $23.99+ (available in women's sizes 4–16, men's sizes 3–14, and 15 styles).

Promising review: "Don't hesitate any further, just buy them! I am super picky about shoes, especially sandals, and these are so comfortable. I wore them for hours walking around downtown, and no blisters, no discomfort, nothing. They look amazing, too!" —Summer

Get them from Amazon for $23+ (available in sizes 5–12 and 58 colors).

Promising reviews: "Worth every penny! I got these for my week-long trip to Puerto Rico and they were amazingly comfortable! I walked hours in them and had no issues. The color is beautiful and the heel is just the perfect height." —Oscar Chavez

"Reaching for these sandals more and more because they’re comfy, cute, and elevate my outfits! They didn’t require any breaking in and I’ve worn them for an entire day out and had no issues with long-term wear. Fit was true to size. Going to get another color since I love them so much!" —Nidhi Patel

Get them from Amazon for $26.09+ (available in sizes 6–10 and in 20 colors).

Promising review: "Second time buying these sandals in tan. The first time was almost two years ago. They have been my travel shoe, my beach shoe, my festival shoe, and my everyday shoe. Walked all over Italy, Cancun, Mexico City, and they've been so good to me. Match with jeans, a dress, a skirt. Super comfy because it holds from your ankle. I looked for others after the first ones broke (two years later and many, many adventures later), but couldn't find anything like these for the price. I initially got them for like $15. But the extra bucks are worth it." —Yes

Get them from Amazon for $19.67+ (available in sizes 5–10 and in eight colors/styles).

Promising reviews: "These shoes were the most comfortable platform sandals I’ve ever worn, straight out of the box. I was leaving a cold climate to vacation in a warm one, so I hadn’t broken in these shoes at all and immediately was walking long distances over uneven streets with no problem. Feet never hurt. Sandals are sassy and look as good or better than advertised. Easy to dress up your outfit and remain comfortable." —frequentcustomer

"THESE ARE AMAZING SHOES!!!! Perfect for a night out or vacation! I wore them in Mexico every night and they were so comfy and cute. I cannot wait to wear them for summer!" —Ally Commito

Get them from Amazon for $45.99+ (available in sizes 5.5–11 and in seven colors).

FYI, these are best suited for narrow to medium-sized feet. 

Promising review: "I have three pairs of these now! They feel great. The straps are comfy. When I bought my first pair, I worried the straps would make it difficult to get the shoes on and that they might be uncomfortable/cause chafing. I was pleasantly surprised at how comfortable they really are, though!!! I alternate the colors and wear them nearly daily now — perfect summer shoes. We went on a beach vacation... we walked for hours at a time and I never once got a blister or felt any discomfort. I didn't have any issues with my feet sliding around uncomfortably when wet, whether from sweat or when it rained. They were great for walking on the beach, too!! These are seriously the best summer shoes!" —Stark

Get them from Amazon for $34.95+ (available in sizes 5–11 and in 22 colors).

Promising review: "OMG, I love these sandals. I have never had a shoe/sandal that has as many straps as this one does fit so well EVERYWHERE. The back strap and ankle-top strap are NOT adjustable. These worried me when I first got them — I am used to buying shoes/sandals that can I adjust more, BUT the straps on this sandal are so soft and comfortable and just stretchy enough that I was able to wear them for hours right out of the box. No toe pain or too tight feeling! I have to say they are a perfect fit which I never experience. Also, if you are new to Keens, they have superior foot support — I have knee arthritis and need a comfortable and supportive shoe, and I can wear these for HOURS. They put a bounce in my step and a smile on my face! They look nice too! They are rugged, for sure. I wore them on a trip down the Cali coast, through Nevada, Arizona, Utah, and Colorado. They've been in desert and water, and held up just fine. TRY THEM, you won't be disappointed!" —J&J Montgomery

Get them from Amazon for $69.95+ (available in sizes 5–12 and in 15 colors).

Promising reviews: "I bought these for a wedding where the location was in a barn and rural area. When I tell you my feet felt like they were supported and comfortable was an understatement. I wore these for hours and felt super stable, and had no issues. I often have the issue of not having ankle and arch support in many shoes and heels, along with narrow feet. These shoes ARE AMAZING. Easy to put on, comfortable to walk in, and I didn’t feel like I was getting blisters at all the first time wearing them. I’ll have to update after wearing them more times out, but so far, they make me want these in every color!!" —Alexandra Wilegus

"I'm obsessed with this shoe! I love that it fits like a bootie. Adorable with skinny jeans/leggings, dresses, etc. Can be dressed up or down — I wore them to a wedding in Greece and also out and about during the day in Spain. Very comfortable for walking, dancing, whatever!" —jasmineflower

Get it from Amazon for $61.18+ (available in sizes 5–12 and seven colors).

Promising reviews: "These shoes are so cute and comfortable, I can’t wait to style them with jeans and dresses all summer long. The sole and low heel make them comfortable for walking around, and the straps look great. Would love to repurchase these in another color!" —SFGal

"The perfect sandal. Bought in three colors. Goes with every outfit. Does the barely there sandal thing without any pain. They are soooo comfy!!! LOVE!!" —Gemmalynn

Get it from Madewell for $118 (available in sizes 5–12 and in five colors).

Promising review: "I purchased these last summer because they were recommended for plantar fasciitis sufferers, and I have not been disappointed! These are casual and perfect for everyday wear, and I can wear them for hours and hours of walking without any discomfort. I really am happy with these flip-flops!" —INcatlady

Get them from Amazon for $32.96+ (available in sizes 6–11 and 24 colors). 

Promising review: "Best sandals I've ever purchased. Super comfortable, even when walking in them for many hours. Dressier than most flip-flops. Most shoes that are comfortable are really unattractive, but not these. Expensive, but worth it!" —cjkotro

Get them from Amazon for $23.83+ (available in sizes 5–14, including wide and narrow sizes, and in 68 colors and styles). 

Promising review: "I’ve worn these everywhere!! They are super comfy and lightweight, go with everything, and run true to size. I got them in white as well, and I’m obsessed. I’ve been to a concert in them, driven in them, and also, I went on vacation recently and walked all over the city, went out, and danced at bars. I’ve never had a pair of heels that are so comfy! Seriously, so worth the money." —Courtney Wilson

Get them from Amazon for $24.04+ (available in sizes 5–12 and in 22 colors).

Christina Christi makes gorgeous leather creations — from bags and shoes to jewelry — at her home in Athens, Greece! These shoes are 100% genuine leather and feature a lightweight sole, BTW.

Promising review: "Lovely and comfortable. Easy to slip on and off. Barely feel the shoe. No 'wearing in,' these are great from day one. Speedy delivery. Great follow-up with seller emailing to check sizing to make sure I received the right fit. Great small business practice and service. Thanks." —Nikkiolivia

Get them from Christina Christi on Etsy for $75.47+ (originally $100.62+; available in sizes 5–13 and in four colors). 

Promising review: "I wasn’t sure about the straps being enough to keep the shoes on my feet, but they were so comfortable and stayed in place without cutting into my feet as the day went on. I was able to walk around the zoo for seven hours with these sandals on, and my feet were perfectly fine at the end of the day. The arch support is much nicer than your average sandal." —Erin

Get them from Amazon for $17.84+ (available in sizes 6–10 and in 18 colors).

Promising reviews: "I love, love this sandal!! I ordered the nude originally in a size 6.5. They are true to size and color! I loved them so much, I ordered a pair in pink and a pair in white. They hold up well, as I have had the nude sandals for two years now, and they are still in great shape. I will definitely be purchasing more!" —Amazon Customer

Get them from Amazon for $21 (available in sizes 5–15, including wide sizes, and in eight colors).

Promising reviews: "For what I paid for these shoes, I did not expect much beyond the fun style. Instead, I’m pretty sure I just found my favorite summer shoe! These are super comfy and pretty darn cute too! They sort of feel like the materials that Crocs are made of, and look just like the Birkenstock shoe of the same material, except with no name printed on the side. (I prefer the look of the sandal without the name, personally.) I feel like it would fit any width foot, thanks to the adjustable strap. There is support in the middle of the foot all the way across, not just in the arch. I suffer from plantar fasciitis, and I expect this will actually help that. But mostly it’s just a super soft, waterproof shoe that will go everywhere with me, except maybe a formal dinner! Then again, if the dress were long enough, I might even consider sneaking them in... LOL. Buy the shoe, you won’t regret it." —Nicole M.

"Absolutely the most comfortable sandals I have ever owned. I could walk miles in them. Never had any blisters in them either! My feet are narrow, so I tightened the straps and they are perfect. I wear one pair around the hous,e and they are so supportive! I don’t care if they go out of style someday, they are so comfy I will wear them forever!" —Brenden Guy

Get them from Amazon for $24.99+ (available in sizes 6–11 and many colors).

Better still, they feature a contoured arch, heel cushion, and proprietary footbed that molds to your foot for high-end comfort. 

I have a pair of these in black, and oh my god. I almost never wear non-wedge heels because I'm a comfort-first girly, but these are so soft, supportive, and stable, it's actually ridiculous. The leather is of such high quality and really molded to my feet after the first few wears. Plus, I'm just obsessed with the look of 'em. I can't recommend these sandals enough — but I will say that if you have wide feet, you may want to size up. I have wide feet and found them a bit snug in the straps (but the leather did soften and stretch a bit over time)!

Promising review: "The Isa Sandal is barely there, yet the padded insole makes them so so comfortable that I'll be hanging out, dancing in the kitchen while drinking bubbles ’til the wee hours." —Fanny A.

Get them from Isa for $285 (available in sizes 6–10.5, three widths, and two colors).

Promising review: "I wore these at the Kentucky Derby and walked around 12 hours with maybe sitting 30 minutes, and my feet did not hurt one bit, and they were brand new and not broken. I absolutely love these shoes!! A 15/10 for me." —Rhonda

Get them from Amazon for $18.99+ (available in sizes 6–11 and in 11 colors).

Promising reviews: "Love these fun wedges. Kind of reminds me of a party on my feet. They are so easy to walk in because, unlike so many others, they are not heavy, and the design makes them supportive to my ankles and feet without compromising style. All the beads and colors work with just about everything. They were the perfect choice for packing to go on vacation because they don’t weigh very much, and there are so many outfits that they looked good with, whether dressing up or heading out in shorts." —Selectivesoul

"This is the cutest summer shoe that goes with everything. Tons of compliments when worn. True to size fit, even though I have a narrow foot. Not stiff or hard to break in, doesn't cause blisters. No weird smell." —Upt Dm
