As promised here is my annual post on stylish comfortable sandals. I try to do this post every year. It takes a bit of research but there are a lot of options out there. Many more than there were a few years ago when I first penned a post like this. I want my sandals to be sleek, yet supportive, and as stylish as possible. Let’s take a look at some stylish comfortable sandals your feet will love.
I try not to have too many “repeat offenders” from year to year, but I do have my favorites. Olukai can you hear me? You might want to check out my post from last year, Stylish Comfortable shoes that don’t look granny-Sandals. Many on that list are still available and in my closet.
Six Flip Flops Your Feet Will Love
Let’s start of the list with my favorite flip-flops. I wear them all summer long, and now that we are moving to Paso even more so. Here are my favorite flip-flops and some new ones you might like.
1st Row Left to Right: I own the Olukai Ho Opio in multiple colors (still my all-time favorite). I have the Vionic on Order. They have great reviews.
2nd Row Left to Right: I own these reefs (they do not look like plastic, have amazing support, and are super comfortable for a simple pool flip flop. The Olukai Aukai is new and maybe just a tad more substantial than the Ho Opio.
3rd row Left to Right: People rave about the fit flop flip flop. I know many of you say they are the only flip-flops you can wear. The Kork-ease Belinda is very similar to the Vionic, so you might want to compare the two if you like the look. All are linked below the graphic.

Stylish Summer Sandals That Won’t Kill Your Feet
Row 1 Left to Right: I chose this sofft number because I know many of you like a nude look with a bit of a heel. The Dolce Vita puffy version isn’t as puffy as some but has that look if you like it. I am not sure that this one would accommodate a bunion but some say it will. I think this Vionic was on last year’s list it is a favorite of many.
Row 2 Left to Right: Another Vionic that is very fashion forward. I tried this Olukai on in Hawaii but didn’t want to add anything extra to my suitcase ordering when I return. I don’t wear wedges, but know many of you do. This one is a stylish comfort version.
Row 3 Left to Right: I own the earlier version of this Gentle Soul number. They are like wearing slippers. Mary Ann bought these Birdies in black and loves them. This cole hahn sandal gets high marks but can run narrow so I doubt it would work for me. Love the look.

Normally I would link to some helpful articles about comfortable shoes, but honestly all of them were either not what I would consider comfortable, or not very stylish if you know what I mean.
You can find all of the Olukai line here. Every pair is comfortable. You can find all of Nordstrom’s comfort sandals here. Some they list I would not consider comfortable, but I guess it depends on whether you have any foot issues. I did not add any Birkenstocks to my list because they just aren’t flattering on my feet. I know many of you love them and I understand why. Thank you for reading Stylish Comfortable Sandals Your Feet Will Love. Please share any favorites you have. We would love to hear about them.
Flip flops are a summer standard for me. The style of sandals that have a strap across the foot but no way to stop the foot from slipping forward don’t usually work for me. I need the kind where your first toe is on one side of the strap and the other four toes on the other.
Some of your choices look great. I’ll be shopping for sandals later today. Thank you.

My favorite is Island Slipper. It’s made in Hawaii and I can walk miles in them.
Hi TE
I am going to look for the Island Slipper. Thanks for sharing.
flip flops are extremely unhealthy but love all the others for a good walk
Hi Rena
Do you think the supportive flip flops are still unhealthy? I find I am most comfortable in a shoe without a back that has support, with all my feet issues!!
Cindy, All these are so good! I think the black Reefs are a classic that always look chic and I think I need a pair. Also the Gentle Souls are so pretty and that to me is the perfect shoe for travel, or being on your feet all day. I love that brand and have them in the strappy red version. This was just in time for refreshing our summer sandals. Always love your style and picks! Hope Hawaii was fun. xo
Hi Kim
Aren’t those black reefs great? I agree the gentle souls are the absolute best when it comes to comfort.
Omg I use to be the Flip flop queen, low to high end. Still love them to this day, So love the sandals, Birdies, ………….
Thank you
This is Awesome, sure helps when searching for them
Hi Karen
I love a comfortable flip flop too! There are many more choices that offer support now.
I love the Yellow Box sandals… comfortable, feminine and priced economically! And available on Amazon as well as their website. Also Daniel Pleiner… very comfortable. Please remember, the more of your foot that shows, the thinner your legs look!
Hi Bev
I like yellow box too. And I love their prices! I have to remember that tip!!
I have never, ever liked the Birkenstocks on me. They always looked so “clunky” and I have tried to wear them several times. However, I stumbled on a boutique that carried them, specifically in narrow. My shoe size is a true 7 and not at all narrow and I do have bunions. I tried on the new version in a saddle color with the big gold buckle, not expecting much, and I LOVED them, I think the look of the normal width just threw everything off for me, particularly at the toe. The strap across the toes was plenty roomy enough and didn’t rub my bunions at all. They just looked really nice on my foot and not at all “clunky”. The owner said that she sold almost exclusively narrow Birkenstocks and has a big following. Who knew that the narrow would make such a difference! Needless to say, I will be purchasing the black with the silver buckle! You might try these and I hope as pleasantly surprised as I was.
I bought a pair of Birkenstocks for this warm weather season, and I was also surprised by how comfortable they are! I usually have to buy a wide shoe because I broke a toe years ago, but in the Birks I just bought my regular size. No rubbing, just comfort.
Hi Nancy
Great to know. I wondered about that.
Hi Cassandra
You are encouraging me to give them a try!
You will be pleased to know there is a whole store dedicated to these kind of sandals in SLO. I’ll give you the tour when you’re ready!
Hi Wren
Yippee!! Can’t wait!!
Cindy! This post is perfect timing! You always do your research so I now know what sandals to buy! a
