Promising reviews: "Super comfortable sandals! Love the soft pink color. Price is great!" —Liliana

"These are the cutest sandals! Great fit, great quality, great price." —Rene

Price: $18.20 (originally $26; available in sizes 6–11 and two colors)

Promising review: "Let me start by saying I got these with very low expectations, but I was truly surprised because now that is one of the main shoes that I wear. I got them on sale, and I wish I had gotten the black ones too, and now the black ones are sold out in my size. It's a great shoe for comfort, stability, all of that. I would definitely recommend buying. I have a lot of pain. I have arthritis. My feet hurt, but with these shoes they do not hurt." —NeedToShop

Price: $30.40 (originally $38; available in sizes 6–10 and two colors)

Promising review: "I could not decide which one of the styles of these sandals I should pick up. So I picked up two of them, the lemon and the lobsters! The fit is true to size. I love the cushiony sole. I was afraid they might not fit because this type of sandal doesn't work well with wide feet, as I have, but my feet fit just fine. There is plenty of stretch to the material. If you are trying to decide, buy them all. I might go back for the other ones! I highly recommend." —MsLovey

Price: $24.98 (available in sizes 6–11 and four colors)

Promising review: "I absolutely love how easy these are to wear. The slip-on mule design makes them perfect for quick trips out the door, but they still look polished and put together. The gladiator-style straps give them a really stylish, on-trend look without feeling bulky. They strike a nice balance between casual and dressed-up, so they work just as well with jeans as they do with a summer dress. They're also more comfortable than expected — the footbed has a nice amount of cushioning, and the fit feels secure without being tight. Great for all-day wear, especially in warmer weather. For the price, these are a great value and a standout addition to any summer rotation. Definitely a go-to sandal this season." —Douglas

Price: $30 (available in sizes 6–11 and two colors)

Promising review: "Fit well. Comfortable and stylish. I wear a 7.5, but it didn’t come in half sizes. I bought an 8, and they fit great! Would definitely recommend these sandals." —Peggy

Price: $16.98 (available in sizes 6–11 and four colors)

Promising review: "These sandals are soooo comfy! And I love that they are easy to slip on when I need to run an errand. I had a white pair before, but this pink is so much cuter! The white pair did seem a tad bit softer that I purchased a couple of years ago, so not sure if the material changed slightly. Either way, they are still excellent!" —Nathan

Price: $14.98 (available in sizes 6–11 and two colors)

Promising review: "So comfortable and have arch support!!!!" —Jennifer

Price: $14 (originally $18; available in sizes 6–11 and four colors)

Promising reviews: "True to size, awesome fit, great quality" –Anonymous

"Great comfortable sandal … great well-made product!" –Julie

Price: $28 (available in sizes 6–11 and two colors)

Promising review: "Absolutely love these sandals. The strings are super comfortable and fit my ankle perfectly. There's a little bit of stretch around the strap on my ankle. The bottoms feel like memory foam and are super comfortable for my heels. I have a flat arch and have no pain at all when walking. Having a flat arch tends to make my toe box a little wider, and these are perfect for that. I can walk around in them all day long with no issues. Definitely a great buy and perfect for summer!" —Cassondra

Price: $24.98 (available in sizes 6–11 and two colors)

Promising review: "Great fit and style from Steve Madden for summer. The retro vibe is perfect, and these look great dressed up or down." –Cynthia

Price: $36 (available in sizes 6–11 and two colors)

Price: $69 (available in sizes 6–11 and two colors)

Promising review: "Like a name brand, but cuter! Great arch support, love the adjustable straps. The more you wear them, the more comfortable they get. If you have high arches, these are great! They run true to size." —Kimberly

Price: $24.98 (available in sizes 6–11 and six colors)

Promising review: "I bought these slides to wear around the house, the beach, and our boat. The soles don't get slippery when wet. No, I was pleased to find them as they are hard to find and were also on sale, and I was able to save some money." —Sherri

Price: $24 (available in sizes 6–11 and five colors)

Promising review: "These are very well-made and practical footwear. I use them for gardening, or any place I think I need some easily cleanable shoes. They're very comfortable, which is a plus." —Nancy

Price: $14.98 (available in sizes 6–11 and three colors)

Promising review: "I purchased these sandals for my wife back in 2012. She liked it so much that she asked me to reorder it. Glad that Walmart kept making it. Definitely 100% recommended." —Olansky

Promising review: "I love these shoes. I wish they came in more colors. I have worn them every day since I got them. Comfy, fit well, just enough height to keep your toes safe from puddles. Highly recommended." —R

Price: $34.99 (originally $44.99; available in sizes 4–11 and four colors)

Price: $27.99 (originally $99.99; available in sizes 6–11 and three colors)

Promising reviews: "There's nothing to dislike about this shoe. This is my fourth pair, I wore the first three out! These are my go-to shoes when I go on vacations or plane trips or have a lot of walking to do. The cork footbed forms around your foot eventually making them the most comfortable shoe ever. It's like not wearing shoes at all. I'm going to get all three colors! again." —Shelly

"For $24 these are a bargain! There is great arch support an the fit is perfect for Summer. These are the kind you buy two pairs of for sure! The buckle is adjustable too." —SuperGSD

Price: $24.98 (available in sizes 6–11 and three colors)

Price: $59 (available in sizes 6–11 and two colors)

Promising review: "Really cute flip-flops! They are kinda platform flip-flops, but not too thick!! I should have gotten a size 7 instead of a size 8 due to them being just a little too big, but that was my fault. The charms kinda hurt your foot while walking in them, but no big deal, you just have to wear them a few times." —Jaime

Price: $22.98 (available in sizes 6–11 and two colors)

Promising reviews: "These are cute, comfy, and oh-so affordable! A definite winner in my closet and wardrobe! ❤️" —MissPaula

Promising reviews: "So stylish! Wore them to a spring wedding, so I didn’t have to wear very long, so everything about them worked out great for me. Next wear will be Easter Sunday, so hopefully it’ll be another win-win!!" —Lori

"Nicer in person. Exceeded my expectations. True to size. Just the right height. Comfortable." —Lisa

Price: $8.09+ (originally $24.98; available in sizes 6–11 and two colors)

Promising review: "Having had a stroke several years ago and plantar fasciitis, my years of Teva orthaheel sandals are over. Who knew Crocs would be the ones that gave me the most support, arch, and heel comfort! The flatter style did not work. These wedges/platforms are perfect. Not like platforms of days gone by. Easy to wash, just wish they came in more colors. Highly recommend if you miss your flip-flops!" —CapeSouth

Price: $22.49+ (originally $29.99; available in sizes 4–11 and four colors)

Promising review: "I love these huarache sandals! They fit true to size and have a comfortable rounded toe box. I bought them in both brown and black. These comfy and stylish sandals will be going with me on a trip to Europe as they are versatile to dress up or down." —Mettawa

Price: $24.98 (available in sizes 6–11 and three colors)

Price: $29.98 (available in sizes 6–11 and two colors)

Promising review: "I get so many compliments on these sandals. I'm on my third pair of black. I also have a red pair and a white pair. They're my favorite. I haven't worn anything else for the last three or four years during the summer months. They're very sexy looking." —LORI

Price: $31.03+ (originally $37+; available in medium-width sizes 5.5–12 and six colors, wide-width sizes 6–12 and seven colors)

Promising review: "These .. handsdown are the best croc sandals I own!! And i own a lot. I've purchased every color they have and will continue as long as they keep making more. They are soooo comfortable and form to my feet perfectly. They have great flexibility. I can wear them all day long without any discomfort! They are great in wet weather too. Very stylist and cute. You cannot go wrong purchasing a pair of these! I did size up 1 size, not sure if everyone will need to though?? The width is perfect. I would say they are a little wider than a typical "thin" classified sandal, but not super wide by any means. I say give them a try and be prepared to fall in love and having to come back to purchace more :) I rate them way above a 10 out of 10!!!!!!!" —Me
