Unless otherwise specified, all sizes in this post are listed in women’s.
1. Elastic sandals that'll gently hug your feet but not too tightly for us wide-footed people. It's a basic sandal made snazzy with its crisscross design.
2. Sandal slides for a slip-on-and-go type of sandal for all of your seasonal festivities.
3. Clarks flip-flops, a classic flip that's everything BUT a flop. See what I did there? Reviewers say they fit like a glove and are super comfortable whether you're running everyday errands or headed for a night out.
4. A pair of washable and waterproof Birkenstock Arizona slip-ons because they're perfect for beach days. As things heat up, I'm sure you'll find yourself happier and happier to have a pair of these hanging around your closet.
5. Or a pair of classic Arizona Birkenstocks that reviewers say even relieved some of the pain they experience from plantar fasciitis.
6. A pair of ankle strap open-toe flatforms just begging to stand in line with you at the local food truck at your city's next summer event.
7. Some braided rope sandals because they'll go great with any summer style you throw its way — a dress, skirt, shorts, or jeans. It's on the list of enduring shoe trends for a reason.
8. Teva Hurricane XLT2 sandals because the sun is out and so it's time to hit the road and you'll need a good shoe that can handle you, and the heat.
9. A strappy classic you'll definitely want to hide in the back of your closet in case you want your roommates to keep ~borrowing~ them.
10. Platform gladiator Dr. Martens with an air-cushioned sole so you can carry around that chunky look you get from your fave boots without having sweaty toes.
11. A peep-toe option in case you want to take a break from a basic sandal to opt for a shoe that can be dressed up for hot summer nights.
12. An incredibly cozy flip-flop made with the same material found in yoga mats that'll keep your feet zen all day long.
13. A funky sandal wedge to give your OOTD a statement piece that'll stop traffic. Plus, the colorful beadwork gives you an amazing palette to inspire your daily fashion.
14. Flatform espadrilles just begging to give you a little added elevation. They come in so many different colors and styles that many reviewers get multiple pairs.
15. A pair of tie-up sandals, an otherwise basic sandal with a dainty tie at the ankle that gives a peekaboo of fancy.
16. Some slide sandals because you want a shoe that not only feels good on the foot but looks good on the foot, too.
