Unless otherwise specified, all sizes in this post are listed in women's.
1. A pair of solid Crocs clogs aka the ideal house shoe because you can easily slip them on to go meet your food delivery person in your driveway to grab your dinner.
Promising review:"Comfortable and easy to slip on and off. I am a nurse at a prison, so I can't wear my other Crocs because of the holes. I also have to remove my shoes before going through the metal detector and security prior to entering the prison. These make my morning routine go faster." — nursejenny
2. A tough and durable waterproof walking sneaker if you want to hit up any trails now that spring has sprung but still want to keep your feet protected from those impending showers.
Promising review:" These shoes are extremely comfortable, non-slip, durable, and perfect for busy medical professionals who walk 10+ miles on a typical shift. They come with a padded foot bed and arch support, so no additional insoles are required. (Typically a must for me.) They are much lighter than regular Dansko clogs and ideal for running to a code or the occasional athleticism/agility required with more behavioral patients. These sneakers are waterproof, but they may not be ideal for situations involving a lot of bodily fluids due to the suede. Still, shoe covers may prevent any issues. I loooooooove these shoes and highly recommend them to all nurses!" — linda driscoll
Price: $149.95+ (available in sizes 5.5–13, wide fits, and 18 colors)
3. Some Floral cutout ballet flats perfect if you have a tropical vacation coming up. They're also super flexible — you can even fold them up and carry them in your bag!
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
Promising review:"These fit like a dream! So comfortable and stylish. Great shoe for the spring/summer. Love them and will probably by another pair in another color." — Amazon Customer
4. Toms sandals made with "high-rebound" insoles so you can wear them all day long without feeling like your feet are going to fall off. Plus, the chunky heel will ensure you feel stable while you're walking.
Promising reviews: "Absolutely love these! They are so comfy that I can walk miles in them without my feet hurting. They also go with every outfit and can easily be dressed up or down." — Cassidy
"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
5. Rhinestone pointed slip-on mules if you want to add a little extra sparkle to your fit. Plus, they're super comfortable right off the bat, so you don't have to worry about breaking them in.
www.amazon.com
Promising review:"These mules are one of the best I have purchased at a good price. They are so beautiful. They are comfortable, and I can wear them for 8 hrs without any problem on my feet. I will use them in Paris. It feels you are just wearing house slippers. I bought another pair." — CA buyer
6. An affordable pair of double-buckle slides that are super durable and easy to clean. Plus, reviewers compare them to Birkenstocks, but these cost waaay less.
The seller recommends checking the size chart, which details the best size for your foot length. The back strap is also adjustable!
Promising review:"Comfy and trendy enough. I like 'em! I prefer not to wear shoes that don't have a back. It's my paranoia that I'll have to break out in a run at some point. But these work very well. I walk miles in them without discomfort. Plus, they're cute. Trends up any casual outfit. They are not Crocs - or Birkenstock-level comfort because the sole is not cushioned but carved out just for the naked foot.
Update: I just returned from a month in Costa Rica during the rainy season, and I'm so glad I brought these! They held up so well getting through muddy pebble streets. The soles were thick enough to not feel the rocks beneath me and keep my toes from getting in the dirt. When I got in, I just washed them off. The white color held up in all that, and they never felt uncomfortable or as if they would come off my feet (a concern I have about sandals without ankle straps). They are excellent value. Get 'em!" — MelRay
7. Platform knee-highs with a 3.14-inch heel if you want to feel like a real-life character from Monster High. Just add some fishnets and maybe some fake vampire teeth, and you're good to go.
Promising review:"I love these so much. They're incredibly comfortable for long wear — stable and sturdy. I've run after a 75-pound dog in these at full speed and I didn't trip or break an ankle. Ultimate stompers. Don't sleep on these." — Rachael N.
8. A pair of colorful sneakers made with hollow soles to provide stable support and optimal shock absorption for any activities that require jumping, frolicking, skipping, or general merry-making.
Amazon
Promising reviews:"Everyone comments on how cute and fun these are. They are super comfortable, lightweight, and are true to size. I love them." — Edie
"I've had these for two years of constant daily walking. I will be buying another pair! They're very comfortable and surprisingly supportive." — Kate
9. A pair of microsuede ankle booties with padded memory foam for all-day wear. Whether you're waiting tables or strolling through a farmer's market, you're going to be happy you added them to your cart.
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
Promising review:"Fits to size chart. Cute and comfy with low heels. Look great with jeans and dresses!" — Happy Customer
10. Or some stretchy knit booties reviewers say are " absolutely worth the money" because they're comfortable and super versatile. These are great for year-round — wear them with a mini skirt in the coming warmer months and jeans when it's cold out!
www.amazon.com, Amazon
Promising review:"I saw these and thought they were really cute. I get so many compliments on them, and they are very comfortable. I work in them and have worn them out to dinner and church. Very versatile and keeps my feet warm on days that I don't need to wear snow boots but are too cold for flats. Definitely recommend and am actually considering getting another pair in a different color. Regarding size. I wear 7s and 8s depending on the style of the shoe. I ordered 7.5, and they are great. I may have been able to wear 7s, but they may have been too tight. I think 8s would have been too big on me." — Jennifer
11. A pair of classic ballet flats, because you want to relive your mid-2000s glory days when you didn't have to worry about rent, doing your taxes, or mindlessly scrolling through dating apps (I'm fine).
Promising reviews: "These shoes are so comfy! I ordered my regular size, and they fit great, so I would say they are true to size. The gold color is so versatile. They also hold up very well. I have worn these probably 100 times, and there is no wear or cracking, and I do a lot of walking. I am definitely going to be buying more of these in different colors!" — Amazon Customer
"I had these shoes for almost two years. They're comfortable and an everyday shoe." — Pretty Lady
12. A cute and casual Sperry sneaker you can slip on whenever you're on the go. Plus, you don't even need to tie the laces!! A convenient shoe that's actually comfy? Yes, please!
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
FYI — if you plan on wearing them with socks, reviewers recommend no-show socks.
Promising reviews: "I LOVE these adorable sneakers. I got three different pairs of sneakers to compare before settling on these. I decided on these because they felt sturdy and comfortable. I want to be able to wear these for a while, and I like that the sole of the shoe is substantial and the canvas on top is sturdy. The style is adorable. These go with anything and make even the most casual outfit feel a little more sophisticated. The insole is a dream. After wearing them through two VERY walking-heavy trips, the insoles have held up great and have molded to my feet. They are so, so comfortable. I love the convenience of the slip-on styling. I've walked hundreds of miles in these babies, and they still look great. (They are in need of a wash — but have kept their shape and comfort)." — Lolo
"I've had them for two years and they have held up well after wearing them several times a week. Highly recommend." — LisaDee
13. A pair of pointed-toe mules that will elevate any outfit while not killing your feet in the process. These are ideal for peeps who want to dress up but might have some high-heel aversions (read: me).
Promising reviews:"I prefer mules for work (office job), and I typically have one pair that I wear most days until they need to be replaced, so when I needed a new pair, this one immediately caught my eye! They have such a nice shape that holds well. I often wear these shoes for 8–10 hours at a time, and they're very comfortable, too! I will probably purchase these ones again when the time comes for a new pair; they're great!" — Amazon Customer
"This is the second black pair I've purchased. Wore them almost every day and they lasted for several years." — Trish
14. A lightweight and waterproof rain boot because we're not gonna let a little rain stop us from getting out of the house when those April showers hit (that will allegedly bring May flowers).
www.amazon.com
15. A versatile ankle boot with a chunky heel if you like a little extra height. Wear these with a mini dress flirty moment or leather pants for a biker-esque look.
Promising reviews: "I love everything about these boots. They are well- made, very fashionable, and comfortable. I was a little concerned about the height of the heel being uncomfortable, but I wore them to work all day and didn't have any problems with my feet hurting. Very happy with my purchase!" — momtojsh
"They are now my favorite boots, I wear them all the time from work, to events, to going out, etc. They work for everything and I can walk in them for hours, and I hate wearing heels for extended periods. They are cute, go with everything, can be worn anywhere, and are easy to clean if they ever get messy. The perfect boot, and I've worn them for a couple of years now still walking as good as the day I received them." — Jacklyn
16. A pair of low-wedge ankle strap flats so you can feel like you're wearing an elegant high heel without fretting about tripping and twisting your ankle (humiliating AND painful).
Promising reviews:"Omg, these are the cutest, most comfortable shoes. I walk all day for work as a server and I can wear these for about seven hours." — M Solis.
"Got these for work. They are comfortable for flat shoes, and they are cute. I've had them for two years and they still look nice. I like the fit and my feet aren't sore after wearing them for eight hours a day." — Alison Angelucci
17. A pair of lightweight, breathable athletic sneakers so your feet can live their best lives, even after hours of walking with the memory foam insole.
Promising reviews:"I'm not even a sneaker person, but I bought these to use on my treadmill and I *love* 'em! From day one, they have been so comfortable while I get my five-mile walk in. I bought them a half size bigger on purpose for added comfort, and they wash well. I highly recommend them, and I will likely buy a second pair to have as a backup." — Dave
"LOVE these shoes! Needed comfortable walking shoes for a trip. My feet get achy and sore, being on them for long periods. These are super comfortable for long days of walking, breathable, no sweaty feet. I did order a size up, and it fit perfectly. After 2 years of medium wear, still as good as day one." — Diane Cummings
18. A pair of platform oxfords that ooze cool vibes, perfect for making a big presentation at work and then wearing out for a date afterward.
Promising reviews:"I wore these for a year working at an upscale restaurant in Dallas, TX. Constantly, I was given compliments on how cute these platform Oxford-styled shoes were. There was little discomfort breaking them in walking up to ten hours a day. They come in all different colors and feel light as a feather, taking each step! I would recommend these to women of all ages. They definitely give an outfit a touch of style, leaving you feeling cute and comfortable!" — MiKayla Stevick
"I absolutely love these shoes..100% worth more than you pay. I own them in black, patent black, patent burgundy, brown, and rose gold...the patent cream will be the next one. I wear them dressed up for work or down with any style of jeans/chino regularly. I tend to wear these a lot more in the winter/fall as they really pull together a basic sweater outfit. Add a belt and these shoes, and you will look effortlessly chic. I remember being very surprised at how comfortable, lightweight, and flexible the shoes were to the point I wore them all day walking in Europe, the same as I would a Nike sneaker. I feel like they run a little big, so if you're between sizes, go for the smaller size. I purchased The first pair around 4 years ago, and they still look great. I will reorder the same pair if they start to look bad or wear out." — Alysen of Houston
19. A New Balance sneaker featuring an uber-supportive memory foam sole insert, aka your potential solution to body aches after hours on your feet.
Promising review:"I am a nurse, I work 12 hours a day on my feet, and these shoes are the most comfortable that I ever had. My feet don't hurt after a shift. I love them." — TC
20. Or some lightweight memory foam shoes if you want a great shoe for weight lifting because of the flat soles and excellent arch support.
Promising review:"I'm a nurse, got these to wear to work. Very comfortable and lightweight. They honestly feel like a supportive sock. Got them in the middle of a stretch of days where my old shoes were killing my feet, and my feet hurt less than halfway through the night than they did at the start of my shift. Will probably buy another color to wear in real life." — Jonathan W.
21. A Dansko professional clog that people love for the arch support, which helps cushion and support the ankle and knee joints.
amazon.com, amazon.com
Promising reviews:"I've been a nurse for 23 years and have worn Dansko shoes exclusively for 20 years, both at work and in my personal life. I have the clogs, sandals, sneakers, mules, and boots in my closet. I have one pair that is 19-years-old, and the footbed feels exactly the same as the first day I got them. I love the fit, the rocking sole motion, and the long-lasting quality of Danskos. These shoes continue with those same qualities that I love!" — Heather C.
Price: $125+ (available in sizes 4.5–13, including narrow and wide fits, and a variety of colors)
22. A Reebok Princess sneaker for a closet staple you'll want to wear again and again (and again). Seriously, they're so highly reviewed, people basically never wanna take em' off!
amazon.com
Promising review:"I have worn Princess Reeboks for years. When I was in nursing and was on my feet for eight hours a day with a lot of walking, my feet never hurt. These shoes are very comfortable, and I highly recommend them!!" — Debra Madden
23. Columbia Newton Ridge Plus Hiking Shoes with a high-traction rubber sole and waterproof leather and suede upper for hitting up any national parks this spring. (If they're still open :'))
You can wear these year-round, but they're light enough for summer hikes.
Promising review:"Love these boots so comfortable! I've worn them on several hikes, and doing yard work. A must-have if you have issues with long-wear comfort. I know these boots will last a long time. The reason I had to get a new pair is that my old ones were over 15-years-old, but still held up." — Kim
24. A pair of Crocs flip-flops for that same lightness, support, and durability of the classic Croc clog while still letting your dogs breathe a little more.
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
Promising reviews:"If you want a durable (I'm talking two-plus years) of almost daily use and undeniable comfort these are the flip-flops for you. I'm on my second pair in five years and they are easily my favorite flops." — brianna v
25. Or a pair of Sanuk Yoga Mat flip-flops covered in a base that's similar to the material on your trusty yoga mat so you can feel like you're walking on a cloud.
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
Promising review:"These are my favorite. As a Southern Californian, I wear flip-flops year-round. The last pair of Sanuk Yoga Mat flip-flops I bought lasted through almost three years of constant wear (they were basically the only shoes I wore for three years, so I'm serious when I say constant). They're comfortable enough to wear for a day at Disneyland, even with arthritic joints." — beth
26. A pair of chunky block-heel pumps because sometimes having a little extra height goin' on is fun, but you don't want to sacrifice comfort, especially if you're on your feet a lot.
amazon.com
Promising reviews:"I work at a restaurant and walk a lot most of my shifts. I was looking for something that will be comfortable and looks professional at the same time. This shoes have both. Definitely getting another one." — Paola Vargas
"Amazing quality! Got the brown about 2 years ago and have worn it alot and it's still in great condition..... great buy!" — Kece
Price: $38.99+ (available in sizes 5–12 and four colors)
27. And finally, a pair of hand-woven Plaka sandals for living that beach lifestyle even if you're stuck on your couch working from home. A gal can dream, right?
Amazon
Promising review:" I've had these for a couple of years and they still look like when I bought them. They are durable and surprisingly comfortable. I wouldn't recommend wearing them to Disneyland or anything like that, but they are great for everyday wear. I always get compliments on them too. They do run just a tad big." — Cheri
Price: $34.95+ (available in sizes 5–11 and 25 colors)
