We’ve all bought a pair of sandals we absolutely love — only to realize they rub, chafe and leave painful blisters that get worse with every wear. It’s no wonder sneakers are so appealing! But before you give up on classy sandals, we found 13 plush, supportive options that look like they’re from a rich mom closet.
Strappy sandals, platforms and slingbacks are all styles featured in our list below. Many of them are specifically designed with cushiony insoles, securing back straps and arch-supporting footbeds that feel like walking on clouds. Plus, these breathable sandals allow Us to show off our pedicures, which is just an added bonus. If you want the comfort of sneakers with the style of sandals, these anti-blister finds are the ones to get, starting at just $16.
