Promising review: "These sandals are super comfy. They almost look like the big buckle Birkenstocks, but these are a little more chunky. The footbed is very cushiony...I have worn Birks for years and had to get used to the hard, contoured cork footbed. I found these Mia sandals really comfortable straight out of the box. They don't have hard, high arches like Birks, and they fit my feet really nicely. I did have to tighten the straps because these shoes have some weight to them and I worried my feet could slip out when walking. Felt true to size for me. Would definitely recommend for my wide width and low arch girlies out there." —catmami

Promising review: "This is the perfect shoe to wear with jeans to gowns. It’s comfortable, and the heel height is just right for someone who can no longer do those high, skinny heels anymore. So far I’m up to five colors." —G Ellis

Promising review: "I’m a huge fan of Crocs. I’ve been wearing them year-round (inside the house as slippers and outdoors in the garden, walking) for the last 10 years. These are the best, most comfortable, so I purchased four pairs already. I wore them on my recent seven-day sightseeing trip to Budapest and Prague in temperatures over 90 degrees with no discomfort or pain. It was like walking on clouds. Highly recommended." —LjubicaKovac

Promising review: "I wear all kinds of high-end sneakers from Nikes to Sam Edlemans, but these boat shoes are a little different and add an elevated style to being casual. I like the soft gold leather, the upper style with less shoe laces and the soles are just thick enough for comfort. It goes with denim jeans to leggings and casual slacks!"   —customerthatwantsquality

Price: $58.50+ (originally $90; available in sizes 5–12 and nine colors)

Promising review: "These shows are amazing. As inexpensive as they are, I expected them to be ill-fitting or cheap-looking. They are neither! Super comfortable for a mega high heel, and the most fabulously elegant shoes. I’m getting these in every color. WOW!" —lafnelfOC

Price: $99 (available in sizes 6–11 and two colors)

Promising review: "I love Melissa shoes because they are cute, durable, and also very fashionable. These fit the need across the board as a casual everyday shoe, but also are nice to dress up a bit, too. The sizing is true to size, and they are very comfortable."  —LaTanya2345

BuzzFeed Shopping is service journalism first: our writers and editors spend all day shopping so you don’t have to, vetting products, fact-checking brand claims, and surfacing what actually helps in real life. We center readers over revenue, recommend products with authenticity (using real experiences, not ad-speak), and reflect our diverse audience, inclusive of a variety of price points, people, and needs. We cut through fake deals, favor useful info over glossy fluff, and recommend both budget and splurge options with context so you can decide what’s right for you — and still have a little fun along the way.
