The right shoe can also be part of therapy if you have a foot condition. Dr. Sutera suggests features like wide toe boxes for shoppers with bunions, extra arch support for those with high arches and insteps, and, especially in sandals, a footbed that isn't completely flat. The Fresh Foam Roav keeps that tradition going. The shoe is made from breathable mesh with tee shirt material on the laces for a secure tie. And the outsole is relatively flat but has a strategic shape to accommodate flat feet. The Ultra Heel also adapts to the shape of your foot over time so the more you wear the shoes the more comfortable they become. What We Like Three of the sandals we reviewed had fans among our testers, but certain pitfalls ultimately kept them off our list of the most comfortable options.

Priya Parthasarathy, DPM, a board-certified podiatrist and spokesperson for the American Podiatric Medical Association Steve Madden Kimmie Espadrille Sandal: Despite the comfort of these shoes' elasticized ankle wrap and molded footbed, our testers found them to be very narrow. While shoppers with slender feet may have no problems with them, those with wider feet likely won't find them comfortable. After one month of wear-testing, we were happy to report that the sandals look as good as new. The durable leather straps and overall sturdy construction add to the sandals great overall value. But if you choose the lighter color, you should be wary of staining. Sizing: Deming suggests starting your shopping journey by considering your shoe size. He says many women are actually wearing the completely wrong size shoe! Make sure to consider the width and height of your foot to prevent any pressure build-up in the toebox. Try styles with wide or narrow options if you experience any discomfort in the toebox. But you should know, because this shoe is made for hiking, it’s less cushy and bouncy than other options, like Teva’s Women’s Zymic Sandal. We did still find them super comfortable for rugged hikes, long distance walks, and daily wear.

For most everyday adventures, the Teva Original Universal will carry you through, but when it comes to extreme and rugged conditions, they can't keep up with some of the more robust models. Particularly in water, we found ourselves slipping in the footbeds, and when tightened, the edges of the straps can be a bit scratchy. The flat footbeds don't provide arch support if that's important to you. But if you're a modest adventurer looking for a solid option at a reasonable price, we're big fans of the simple, affordable Teva Original.

The best comfortable sandals have straps that won’t dig in, a supportive footbed with heel and arch support, and a slight one- to two-inch heel to relieve pressure from your Achilles tendon and plantar fascia, according to Priya Parthasarathy, DPM, a board-certified podiatrist and spokesperson for the American Podiatric Medical Association (APMA). When shopping for summer sandals, you should also consider: As the sandals and slides we tested are designed for slightly different activities, we alter our testing methods accordingly, rating them across the following five performance metrics: BUY: Reebok Nano X2 Men's Training Shoes Best Gym Shoes for Flat Feet - New Balance Fresh Foam Roav

If you have a unique foot structure or medical issues, look for unique attributes in your sandal—including: Whether walking long distances on your daily commute, exploring new terrain on a hike or just running errands in your neighborhood, you need a pair of comfortable sandals that's up to the job. And if you're looking to upgrade your walking shoes, the footwear experts at the Good Housekeeping Institute have you covered. Slides aren't typically the best choice for comfortable shoes. However, if you need or prefer a pair of slides for your trip, these are your best bet. This style from Adidas has been a go-to sandal for women ever since the silhouette was originally released in 1972. The water-ready shoes feature a contoured footbed that molds to your feet and a rubber sole that makes them super durable, so if your plans include heading to the beach, this is a great pair to consider throwing in your bag. Merrell Women's Speed Fusion Convert 1TRL Sandals are lightweight and comfortable. But we found the athletic style to be too clunky for most wearers, and overall, the shoe is not worth its higher price.

Below are considerations to keep in mind when shopping for walking sandals to ensure they’ll not only feel comfy, but stay in excellent shape wear after wear. The closed-toe style looks more like a sneaker than a sandal, and without straps, it can be hard to get on. Chaco’s Women’s Townes Sandals combine comfort and style—like ECCO’s Women’s Flowt Sandals—with a classic silhouette and contoured footbed. We love this pair for travel because they’re lightweight enough to stash in your luggage, streamlined and stylish to go with most outfits, and supportive enough for a long day of sightseeing. The Floatride energy foam is very comfortable and the rubber outsole has a lug pattern for maximum grip on almost any surface. The midfoot also have Reebok's ROPEPRO grooves to give you an extra boost if you're doing any sort of climbing. What We Like There are a variety of workout shoes out there that can suit just about any sport or type of training. Weightlifting shoes are typically flat for better stability for lifting, while running shoes are typically more flexible and offer dynamic support for the movement. There are also cross-training shoes that are a hybrid of both.We were also big fans of the Merrell Bravada Sandal. With velcro straps across the heel, ankle, and forefoot, you can adjust the fit in three areas. Our feet stayed securely in place, and the lightly padded straps didn't rub or dig into our skin. We felt very stable while walking on the beach, sidewalks, trails, and other terrain. These cushioned sandals are incredibly responsive, with an almost bouncy feel that springs you into your next stride. Durable materials: Leather is pricier than synthetic materials, but it tends to last well over time while feeling soft and supple. When it comes to athletic styles, nylon is an excellent option. Deming suggests looking for stretchy materials if you have bunions or hammertoe as it can better accommodate your foot shape.
