Promising review: "I love Tevas so much! In my opinion, they are better than Chacos or a lot of other similar brands. Tevas are great for comfort, wide feet and with this color, they can be dressed up a little or worn for very casual and outdoor activity use!" —Amber Vaughn

Get them from Amazon for $37.99+ (available in sizes 5–13 and in a variety of colors)

Promising reviews: "Let’s be honest. I have wide feet, I'm a plus-size teacher and wear these shoes to work and my feet do not suffer. And they look cute! I have a few pairs of Vivaia shoes, and they never disappointed me." —Ophelia C.

"These are very attractive and comfortable shoes. I was surprised by the cushion and support in these and find them far more comfortable than the usual knitted flats brand that I’ve purchased. Highly recommend." —Ashlea M.

Get them from Vivaia for $97+ (available in sizes 5–11 and 27 designs).

Promising review: "I have these in several colors (started with one, bought more). I have wide feet with narrow heels, bunions, and a high instep, and these flats are perfect for me. Wearing them is as comfortable as wearing slippers, but more stylish. The price is great (and conducive to buying more that one color). I don't expect them to last forever but I will definitely get my money's worth from them. Very cute shoes!" —Magdalene19

Get them from Amazon for $20.99 (available in sizes 6–11 and 13 colors).

Promising review: "Quite possibly the best pair of boots I've bought on Amazon. Really comfortable, great color! Walked through the city for several hours on the first day I got them, and not a single sore spot or blister. Wear them with jeans, shorts, skirts, and boho dresses. Really versatile! 😊" —Dana

"Love them ❤️. They’re made of good material. I was worried they would be too tight since I have wide feet, but they’re just super comfy. I highly recommend these boots" —Anonymous Customer

Get them from Amazon for $35.65+ (available in sizes 6–11 and in 12 colors).

Promising review: "I bought these for a trip where we'd be walking and standing for long periods of time. Three days of concerts and fun! Don't forget the shopping!! I was worried these would be tight and not fit my duck-wide feet well. But I was wrong they quickly molded to my feet and survived three days of long lines and concerts! Going to buy all the colors now!" —Shorty

Get them from Crocs for $49.99 (originally $69.99; available in women's sizes 6–11, men's sizes 4–9, and three colors)

Promising review: "I never leave reviews but these shoes deserve it. I got several compliments on these with ankle pants...super sharp and trendy but REALLY comfortable! I have a wide foot and foot issues and I was able to wear these all day on my feet with no issues...I was really impressed with these and will buy more from this brand. Affordable, well made, trendy, comfortable and true to size..worth every penny!" —Steven Mulderink

Get them from Amazon for $36.54+ (available in sizes 6–11 and in six colors).

Promising reviews: "My whole life I never bought into the whole Converse thing and was never attracted to the style. Finally, I was looking for a slip on of this style and decided to jump on the bandwagon. OH MY GOD. I LOOOOVE these Chucks. I love the slip-on nature and they're so cute with everything I wear. I can wear this shoe every single day all day (and I'm a hair stylist/on my feet up to ten hours a day). I absolutely recommend them. I've posted this review almost a full year after purchase and this is my current opinion on them!" —RDalletto

"Ok, so I have to look like the cool mom because my teenage daughters will tell me over and over again that I'm definitely not. Anyway, these shoes go with leggings and jeans! Yay! Great weekend walk around shoe. How do they fit? I am between 7.5 and 8. I usually wear 8-inch flats because my feet are wide, but I read the reviews, and they advised me to go down a half size, so I ordered the 7.5. Perfect fit!!" —skuchen

Get them from Amazon for $55+ (available in sizes 5–11 and five colors).

Promising review: "I ordered my sandals for at home try on, and they shipped very fast even when I had to exchange for a different size. They are constructed beautifully. They seem delicate but are well made and I feel comfortable walking around in them all day for work." —Nicole

"I went with my normal size (I have wide feet fyi) and they fit like a glove! Beautiful shoes. So comfortable and I wear this in SoCal almost every day. Goes very well with linen pants" —Alice

Get it from Nisolo for $138 (available in sizes 5–11 and in five colors).

Promising review: "I needed a waterproof boot that would also be good for lots of walking. I did a lot of walking in Ireland and Scotland, mostly in rainy weather, and these boots were true to their description. My feet were dry and comfortable." —Louise M.

Get them from Amazon for $37.50+ (available in sizes 5–12, including wide fits, and 12 colors).

Promising review: "If you'd like to add 3 inches to your height without the dangers of toppling over, you've got to try these platform sandals! They're absurdly comfortable, soft, lightweight, and breathable. I've walked miles in these. The open strap design visually elongates the length of the leg. Also, there are lots of colors to choose from, and you will! I've got three and counting." —CC Mac

Get them from Amazon for $38.39+ (available in sizes 5–12, including wide fits, and two colors).

Promising review: "These booties are so beautiful and comfortable. I usually wear a 81/2 but got a 9. With the size 9, I could wear thick socks. It would've been good with the 8 1/2, I'm sure. Great if you have wide feet/ankles. These are honestly a must-have 💕💕" —Anonymous Customer

Get them from Target for $34.99 (originally $49.99; available in sizes 6–10 in medium and wide fits)

Promising review: "These shoes are some of the most comfortable heels I have ever purchased. I have heels that I paid over $100 for, but they aren't near as comfortable as these LifeStrides. I've worn these shoes several times to events or out to dinner, but today I wore them to work for eight hours. I walk quite a bit at work, but these heels did not hurt my feet. I usually get pain in the balls of my feet, but these have just the right amount of cushion." —Joni R. Harris

Get them from Amazon for $16.79+ (available in sizes 5–12, including wide fits, and 20 colors).

Promising review: "Ok, I gotta say, I love these shoes. I'm a retail worker and I am on my feet eight to nine hours a day. I'm a personal shopper so my job requires me to walk several miles a day. I am very picky about shoes. I need something very comfortable with good support or else I am in severe pain after my shift. I noticed several of my coworkers wearing these, and I was curious, so I got a pair. I was NOT expecting to like these so much! My tried and true preferred work shoe has been Crocs. For years that was all I could wear to work and be comfortable. These shoes though, are actually better for me.

They are surprisingly comfortable and supportive for my flat feet, and I love the memory foam soles. I am not in pain anymore thanks to these guys. I've only been wearing them for about two weeks now but I'm already noticing a remarkable difference. They also look pretty cool and I love the colors. I actually get a lot of compliments on them, and people ask me where I got them. Anyway, yeah, if you need a comfy shoe, get these! I want other colors now." —Hannah

Get them from Amazon for $36.79+ (available in sizes 5.5–10.5 and 20 colors).

Promising review: "This is my second pair of 000s after wearing my first pair for three years. They are light-weight, supportive, look good and so easy to slip on and off. I wear them everywhere — dinner, the office, grocery shopping, etc. They are very breathable, so I can wear them year-round, even on a humid summer day. I have wide feet but the 000s have sufficient room so that my toes/feet are comfortable housed in these shoes. Happy with the colour too (grey). I got the mauve last time, which got lots of compliments." —Victoria N.

Get them from Atoms for $130 (originally $145; available in sizes 5–16 and seven colors).

Promising review: "These are great shoes for work or going out. They look more expensive than they are and are very comfortable. I work in a city so I do quite a bit of walking every day and they’ve been fine, no blisters." —Megan D

Get them from Amazon for $36.71+ (available in sizes 5–12 and five colors).

Promising review: "I have feet that are always in pain — bunions, hammer toe, arthritis from prior breaks. These shoes are so comfortable I bought them in three colors. When I am walking around in these shoes, the pain is hardly noticeable. I highly recommend them." —Jeanine

Get them from Amazon for $20.20+ (available in sizes 5–13, including narrow and wide fits, and 24 colors).

Promising review: "Loooove them! Very neatly made, great quality, soft and comfy. Have to mention customer service — they were super helpful, responsive and flexible in regards to shipping.

Promising review: "Love love these shoes. They look gorgeous and are the most comfortable heels I have ever worn. I had stopped wearing heels to work, choosing comfort over style — now I can have both. To be able to walk in these all day and not have to worry about my feet hurting by the end of the day is a blessing. I loved these shoes so much I purchased several different colors. Buy them, you won’t be sorry!" —eknife

Get them from Amazon for $33.70+ (available in sizes 5–12, including wide fits, and eight colors).

Promising review: "I love these sandals! Steve Madden is always a guarantee which is why I have been a loyal customer for the past 15 years! I recently bought these sandals for my honeymoon in the Riviera Maya. Didn't even bother to break them in before hand. I can honestly say they are very COMFORTABLE! I walked around everywhere and although they have no arch support, my feet didn't hurt at all. No blisters either. Highly recommend! Will continue to be a loyal customer of Steve Madden." —Vania

Get them from Amazon for $27.68+ (available in sizes 5–11 and 18 colors).

Promising reviews: "The best, cutest shoes to teach in all day. They make every outfit look much cooler. I'm thrilled with my purchase. I have wide feet, so having a wide toe fits me perfectly, but if you're a narrower-footed person I can see how you'd want to size down." —Iris O.

"Sounds impossible, but they are very comfy to wear out and they go with every outfit I wear soooo I pretty much love my shoes <3" —Alexandra R.

Get them from Dr. Martens for $140 (available in sizes 5–11).

Promising review: "My second pair of this style. I wore my last pair in several countries, over many years, lots of walking/light-mod hiking, and they held up great. But it was definitely time to replace them. They fit me perfectly, and when worn with no-show socks, I can walk for miles in them. Cute with shorts, jeans, or casual skirts/dresses." —cheddo

Get them from Amazon for $32+ (available in sizes 5–12, including wide fits, and four colors).

Note: Some reviewers suggest ordering one size down.

Promising review: "I asked for these for Christmas of 2022 (I've had them 1.5 years now) bc I thought the were cute BUT THEN they saved my life. Not exactly, but sort of. I sprained my ankle badly before I had a bachelorette in a four-story mansion (lots of stairs) where I taught 6 women a Bollywood dance for my bestie's wedding in India the next month. THEN I had to travel India (lotsss of walking) and perform that dance at the Sangeet. When I say these shoes are the only reason my ankle made it, I mean it. They are sturdy around the ankle and foot, cushioned and so so comfortable, light weight and the toe box is wide (great for your feet). Plus they're adorableee and go well with many outfits. I'm going to buy another pair soon in case they ever stop selling them!" —Heather

Ma’am Shoes is a woman-owned small biz creating staple shoes that are built to last and, most importantly, are comfortable enough to see you through your busy day. They use environmentally responsible packaging and work exclusively with local LA-based manufacturers to reduce carbon emissions.

Here's what BuzzFeed editor Danielle Healy has to say about these:

"Sometimes it feels like my feet are made of paper with how easily they blister. So when a brand markets itself as having a focus on stylish comfort, I am all ears. Fresh out of the box, I wore these red beauties out to dinner (a 20-minute walk each way) and my feet were no worse for wear. So I decided to put them through the ultimate test — a wedding. Even after hours of dancing, my feet felt great and I got loads of compliments. A statement shoe that really does look and feel great? *Big swoon.*"

Promising review: "I adore these heels! First off, they look great with a casual dress, shorts and even jeans. Beyond that, they’re amazingly comfortable from the first wear. I would definitely recommend this high quality product." —Molly Swanson

Get them from Ma’am Shoes for $150+ (originally $300; available in sizes 4.5–11 and in five colors).

Promising review: "I LOVE these sandals! I receive so many compliments each and every time I wear them. I walked for long periods of time in them and they never hurt my feet and they have held up to the many miles that have been put on them." —Nicholette

Get them from Amazon for $34.99+ (available in sizes 5–11 and 11 colors).

Promising review: "Thought the shoes were cute and read raving reviews, so I bought them. Wow! Sooo cute and extremely comfortable! I’m so excited about these! It feels like you’re walking on a cloud and I cannot believe the price I paid for them. Amazing deal. Highly recommend! I bought my size, an 8, and they fit perfectly. They are not too narrow and they definitely don’t look like 'clown shoes' as someone mentioned. Adorable 10/10!" —Talia

Get them from Amazon for $31.98+ (available in sizes 5–10 and in 11 colors).

Promising review: "I cannot emphasize how much I love these shoes. Would I wear these shoes to work out? No. But I can walk for miles in these things, it is like walking on air. They are so light and so comfortable, and they look interesting and people comment on them often. I have worn them very frequently since I got them three months ago and there is almost no wear to be seen. So, they are pretty hardy for the price they're at. Considering I've owned expensive Nikes, I'd go with these over my previous shoes. They are so similar in make and feel to the Nikes I've owned, but a much better price — and as a minimalist I enjoy that there is no visible branding!" —Samantha M.

Promising review: "I LOVE these shoes! I was greeted by the smell of sweet leather. I immediately put them on and couldn’t believe how cute they were in person! I’m normally a size 6.5 and have a wider foot across the toes. I ordered the size 6 and they fit perfectly. I wore them all day and no issues, no blisters, no 'new shoe' uncomfortableness. I would highly recommend!" —Memphis Market Co. David and Grace
