While we love the experience of shopping for shoes in-store, let's face it: adding them to our virtual cart is just so much more convenient. It saves precious time and, arguably, is a more productive shopping experience, given that we can diligently study up on customer reviews and product details before plugging in our credit card info. Plus, the ease of searching for exactly what we want with just a few clicks beats running around the store any day. At this very moment, we're on the hunt for a great pair (or two) of stylish shoes to wear on repeat this summer. Lucky for us, Amazon is brimming with options that cater to every taste.
No matter which shoe trend has caught your eye this season, Amazon's got you covered. From minimalist thong sandals that complement any outfit to trendy mesh and fisherman styles, the retailer has it all and more. Whether you're in need of everyday sneakers, versatile flats, or even designer shoes, Amazon has got you covered with stylish finds for the season ahead. Keep scrolling to discover our top 18 picks, with options at every price point.
Best Flip Flops
KuaiLu Flip Flops ($14, originally $20)
These flip flops stand out with their stylish knot design, which makes them feel more fashion-forward than your average pair. Amazon shoppers quite literally rave about how comfortable these ones are. "When I say they are the best, I am not exaggerating," wrote one of thousands of reviewers who gave them five stars.
Best Thong Sandals
Amazon Essentials Thong Sandal ($19)
Calling all fashion minimalists: These thong sandals are a must have if you're looking for a pair to complement everything in your wardrobe. They have just the right amount of padding to keep you comfortable, and the thong strap comes in several different colors, along with a few patterned options.
Best Chunky Sandals
Dream Pairs Lug Sole Chunky Sandals ($20, originally $30)
These chunky lug sole sandals bring '90s nostalgia straight to your wardrobe, no vintage store hunting required. Don't be intimidated by the height; these sandals boast squishy-soft soles and sturdy lug soles to keep you comfortably on your feet all day long.
Best Fisherman Sandals
Dream Pairs Fisherman Gladiator Woven Flat Sandals ($22, originally $25)
This summer, consider trading your strappy tan sandals for a pair of trendy fisherman-style sandals. They come in every neutral hue you could ask for, including tan, black, white, and dark brown.
Best Designer Dupe
Rihero Dressy Flats ($29, originally $34)
While some high-end designer sandals like these will set you back well over $500, this faux leather dupe is a much more affordable alternative at below $30. The neutral brown hue featured here is a versatile choice, but they also come in green, white, and black.
Best Knotted Sandals
FITORY Flat Sandals ($30, originally $39)
The knotted detail that makes these easy slides elevated enough to pair with dresses and skirts. You can grab them in six different neutral colors.
Best Cushy Sandals
Teva Women's Olowahu Sandal ($30, originally $34)
Nearly 20,000 shoppers have given these Teva sandals a perfect five-star rating. Many have worn them for years and are now purchasing a second pair in a different color. Shoppers describe them as "indestructible," comfortable (with many praising their arch support), and stylish.
Best Cork Footbed Sandals
Cushionaire Women's Lane Cork Footbed Sandal With +Comfort ($30, originally $50)
It's no secret that these cork footbed sandals look similar to another more expensive pair that the world knows and loves. But given the fact that these take the top spot among all of Amazon's shoes, they're a solid alternative.
Best Mesh Mules
Feversole Pointed Toe Casual Slingback Flat Mules ($32, originally $36)
Finding mesh sandals on Amazon can be tricky, especially with many options from luxury labels at steep prices. But fear not, as you can snag this stylish pair for under $35. As one satisfied customer raved, "They're classy looking and go with just about everything."
Best Braided Sandals
Athlefit Braided Heeled Sandals ($34, originally $40)
The chunky braided straps and croc-embossed heels on these shoes offer loads of texture, which manages to help them stand out, even when paired with a neutral outfit. They come in five other colors ranging from black to beige.
Best Rope Sandals
Rope Flip Flop Sandals ($45)
These rope sandals are a dead ringer for a designer pair that costs nearly $1,000. They come in three different colors and the T-strap is adjustable, so you can customize the fit.
Best Block-Heeled Mules
The Drop Women's Pattie High Block-Heeled Mule Sandal ($55)
Don't worry if the orange color of these block-heeled mules isn't your vibe; they come in practically every alternative style you could think of: a red version, a natural embossed croc , and even a black rhinestone pair! The list goes on.
Best Slingback
Chinese Laundry Women's Mango Pump ($70)
What's not to love about these pumps? They have no shortage of fabulous details, from their pretty pink floral print and delicate lace detail to their sturdy block heel and slingback silhouette. FYI: They're sold out on the brand's website, but you can still get them on Amazon (for now, anyway).
Best Platform Sneaker
Adidas Vl Court Bold Sneaker ($73, originally $80)
We'd pair these platform sneakers with everything from tennis skirts to cut-off shorts for days when you want to be cute but comfortable. They come in four other colors, but you can't go wrong with this classic white and black combo.
Best Kitten Heel
JW PEI Women's Sara Mule Heeled Sandals ($89)
You've definitely heard of JW PEI bags, but it's time the brand's shoes are on your radar, too. As far as we're concerned, it doesn't get much more stylish than this puffy pair, featuring a pointed toe and kitten heel, all crafted in vegan leather. They come in a rainbow of colors, so you can choose which best suits your style.
Best Lace-Up Sandals
Tkees Women's Jo Lace Up Sandals ($92)
These lace-up sandals offer a high quality design and versatility. They have a toe loop and straps that stylishly wrap around your foot and ankle, with just the right amount of cushioning. On Amazon, they're available in three colors (black, gold, and tan), but they're selling quickly, so don't miss out.
Best Running Shoes
On Cloud 5 Sneakers ($135)
There's nothing like a fresh pair of running shoes to keep you on your summer fitness goals. Reviewers love how lightweight yet cushioned these are and praise them for their comfort. When they start to get dirty, just throw them in the wash to keep them bright and white.
Best Crocheted Shoes
Staud Simone Crochet Heels ($395)
These heels are a great choice if you're okay with a summer splurge. They beautifully complement a variety of summer outfits, especially sundresses. They're nearly sold out on the brand's website, but if you move quickly, you can still scoop them up in multiple sizes via Amazon.
