We'd really be a bunch of heels if we didn't mention that these babies come in two dozen different colors. (Amazon)
On your feet all day? Then you know the importance of investing in a pair of shoes that can handle the stress. Reviewers say that Slow Man Walking Shoes are up to the task. Equipped with a perforated arch and air cushioning, these kicks were designed for hours of comfortable wear. (There's a reason we named them "Best Breathable Option" in our roundup of the Best Slip-On Sneakers.) And they won't hurt your wallet, either — grab ’em on sale for as little as $29.
"I've tried a lot of eye creams," says Yahoo Senior Beauty Editor Jennifer Romolini. "And, for my money, CeraVe makes the best drugstore depuffing/under-eye brightening treatment currently on the market. Not only does it feel good on your skin (absorbs quickly, no gross pilling), it's also fragrance-free, hypoallergenic and non-comedogenic. Olivia Wilde also loves it, along with thousands of reviewers, who say it's like Botox in a cream. I'm not sure about that claim, but I do know this is a quality skin care staple at a price everyone can afford."
Speaking of which, this is close to as low as I've seen it all year (it's 40% off!).
Lightweight and flexible, these shoes are made with a mesh upper and have a wide toe box for an extra-roomy fit.
This eye-catching dual-toned pair has an equally eye-catching price.
Wearing house shoes with an open design can lead to trips, slips and falls — but these will stay nice and secure around your whole foot.
At just $29, this is the lowest we've seen these drop this year. Plenty of name brands claim they can support your feet on even your most intense days, but they also come with equally intense price tags — and who wants to spend upwards of a hundred bucks on sneakers?
The kicks are made of mesh fabric, so they feel light on your feet and are just as flexible as your favorite pair of socks. The outsole has an air bubble — which board-certified podiatrist Dr. Polina Zaydenberg says is “a great shock absorber” — and the chunky rubber sole provides “plenty of cushioning.” The wide toebox accommodates bunions and hammertoes too. The durable sole helps prevent slips.
We haven’t even gotten to the best part yet! These sneakers have over 57,800 five-star ratings. We’ll wait as you pick up your jaw from the floor.
Fans praise virtually every part of these sneakers, from the sole to the style, and they all agree on one thing: They’re hands-down the most comfortable shoes they own.
Pros 👍
The ultimate test for a pair of sneakers? If nurses and doctors can get behind them. In the case of the Slow Man Walking Shoes, they can.
“I work 12 hours a shift as a nurse,” one health-care worker wrote. “I have problems with swelling and pain in my feet. These have helped tremendously because they have give to them. They also have a nice arch and good cushion. I liked the black so much I bought this pair in khaki for regular wear when off work. My black pair are ONLY for work and stay at the hospital.”
Another chimed in: “ VERY comfortable!! Bought a second pair. Not tight on my feet or toes. Good arch support. I'm an older nurse and Very surprised at how well these shoes work for me.”
It’s not just nurses. Educators love these shoes, too: “I have worn these shoes religiously to school, as they are more comfortable, professional, and supportive than my Nike shoes or others” one noted. “I have 0 pain in my feet in these shoes, unlike others that I’ve tried. I wish they had a green! I’ll keep buying more as these wear out, but I’ve had two of them for over a year and they’re great, no signs of wear. These were a random purchase, but I ended up loving them.”
“I am a teacher and spend all day on my feet,” another wrote. “I can't tell you how much money I've spent over the years trying to find shoes that will keep up with my hectic lifestyle. Well, these are it! These shoes are magical. No longer do I run into my house at the end of the day just to kick my shoes off. Sometimes I forget I have them on. They have walked through many, many airports and conventions with me. I've turned on so many of my teacher friends to these. They are washable and look great. Awesome colors and the price is right.”
Some shoppers say getting these on can be tricky.
"Very comfortable ... but really hard to pull on!" reported one reviewer. "I just love these shoes, once you can pull them on. They really need a pull tab on the heel. They are so soft that they often just roll over and fold over on the stiffer heel portion and you have a hard time getting your finger in to slide it up and over the heel. I tried using a short shoe horn, and sometimes it works and other times I just give up... I have ordered a long shoehorn to see if it helps." (Psst: This top-selling long shoehorn is just $10.)
Another agreed: “A little tough to get on at first but well worth it. Great shoes!"
Speaking of comfort, how about a cozy pair of house shoes? These Scurtain Rubber-Soled Slippers are also popular and currently on sale.
"They fit my feet securely," wrote a relieved reviewer. "I’m 74 and afraid of walking in flip-flops because I have fallen. These slippers make me feel secure when walking around the house. I will buy again."
