Hi, my name is Riley and I am a shoe addict. In fact, I prefer to buy shoes more than I prefer to buy clothes. If you’ve landed on this list, there’s a good chance that this rings true for you too. Because I am a shoe shopaholic, I try not to spend too much money on shoes. After spending hours perusing Amazon, I quickly realized that there are so many incredible styles on the site – it is the mecca for great dupes for some very high-end designer brands but without the high price tag. From pumps to edgy combat boots to sandals that are perfect for days on the lake, these are 37 shoes from Amazon that I promise you won’t regret buying.
Get On the Chunky White Sneakers Trend with New Balance
I love a good pair of sneakers that you can wear for both the gym and for everyday wear. These New Balance sneakers are the perfect balance of sporty and casual. You can slip them on, head out the door, and still look put together. Plus, dad sneakers are totally in right now, so you can bet on getting tons of compliments.
Why Spend a Ton of Money on Designer Sandals? You Can Get These Instead
I absolutely love my Birkenstocks. They’re as comfortable as can be and look cute with everything. What I don’t love is the price. Luckily you can get these sandals that look identical for half of the price. The rubber is super lightweight, and they’re really easy to clean off, so they stay looking new no matter how much you wear them. And how amazing is that purple color?!
You’re Never Going to Want to Take These Slippers Off
I got these slippers this past Christmas, and I haven’t taken them off since–even now, in the middle of summer. I wear them from the minute I wake up to the minute I go to sleep. They’re so comfortable that I’ve even walked out of the house in them once or twice.
You Need a Pair of Sandals That Matches Literally Every Outfit
Looking for sandals that are the perfect combination of casual and stylish? Then stop what you’re doing and get these sandals. As if the picture wasn’t enough, maybe this review by one Amazon user will, “Received these today, and I love them! I’d never ordered sandals online before since it’s such a tricky purchase for a lot of reasons. But, I took a chance, and I’m so pleased with the style, fit, and quality. I wanted something comfortable and easy to put on/take off but wanted them stylish, too. These are a perfect combination of casual and stylish, *and nice quality for the price. I think they’re a great option for a wider foot — that’s where I find I can’t wear strappy fashion sandals.”
Everyone Needs a Good Basic Pair of Heels Like These
Heels can really make any outfit look more put-together. The unfortunate part is that, more often than not, they’re also extremely uncomfortable. That’s why I like heels like this. The older I get, the more I realize I need a solid pair of heels that I can quickly throw on with a dress for weddings or a nice dinner, and these do the trick. And of course, you won’t have to stress about comfort.
These Wedges are the Best Summer Shoe
Wedges are fun because they’re like a fancier version of a sandal. These wedges are no exception to this. You can wear them for hours with zero pain, and they’re so versatile. Just look at all these different outfits! One day you can wear them with shorts, and the next, you can pair them with your favorite romper.
Ye, These Slides are a Crazy Good Dupe
Can someone explain why anyone would pay over $200 for Yeezy slides when slides like these exist? The ergonomic design fits your foot’s curve perfectly, while the thickened, soft sole makes them comfortable af. One Amazon user even compares them to walking on marshmallows. And since this look is so popular right now, you can wear them in public for ultimate comfort.
These Chelsea Boots are So Stylish You’d Have No Idea They’re Rain Boots
While Arizona may not get a lot of rain, I couldn’t skip out on these adorable Chelsea boots. As someone who is a firm believer that shoes are just as–if not more–important than the outfit itself, I think that rain boots should be just as adorable as a regular pair of booties. And these boots are proof that it’s possible.
While I Hate to Succumb to a Fad, Crocs are All the Rage Right Now
Alright, let’s face it. Crocs are totally in right now. And while it may be a hard pill to swallow, I highly recommend them. Crocs are comfortable, lightweight, and great for summer. They’re truly like walking on a cloud. Plus, you can opt for neutral colors to rock them while being a bit more lowkey.
I’ve Worn These Hiking Boots on So Many Hikes and They’re So Comfortable
Hiking boots don’t always have to cost an arm and leg–these Columbia hiking boots are proof! These boots are ideal for every challenging trail with water-resistant fabric, breathable leather lining, and a durable midsole. Trust me, I’ve worn them for two years now, and they look brand new. I even took on Angels Landing and the Grand Canyon with them.
These Cowboy Boots are the Epitome of Fun and Flirty
I was the queen of going to country concerts when I was in high school, so I love that cowboy boots in style in a fashionable way. While they may seem like a hard piece to style, they can pretty much go with everything. I’ve seen people wear them with dresses, skirts, and shorts and a tee. You just have to get out of your comfort zone and be ready to embrace your “yee-haw” aesthetic.
These Sandals are the Perfect Shoe for a Lake Day
As much I love Tevas and Chacos, I don’t love that they cost anywhere from $50 and up. And while I don’t have a problem spending money on something that I know will last me a while, I love finding alternatives–like these sandals. I wear these on all of my outdoor adventures, including hiking, kayaking, playing in the lake, and beach days. I love that you can rinse them off easily when they’re dirty, and they’re comfy as heck.
These Running Shoes are So Lightweight That It Feels Like Walking on a Cloud
Having a good pair of running shoes is absolutely imperative for every single closet–even if you aren’t a runner. Running is the bane of my existence, but you can bet that I have these running shoes. They’re truly lightweight enough that it feels like you’re wearing nothing. And if you’re anything like me, they look super cute paired with leggings for a trip to the grocery store.
These Gladiator Sandals Look Designer
If you haven’t noticed by now, I pride myself on being a bargain shopper. And while I love designer goods, I can’t justify the prices. So I’m always searching for dupes–just like these gladiator sandals. Amazon user Denise said, “They are super on-trend right now at a steal price! I have already recommended these to a few friends who have snagged these, and I’ll be buying the clear once my size is back in stock!” I couldn’t have said it better myself.
These Chunky Heels Remind Me of the 70s
Are you beginning to notice a pattern with these shoes? I’m a big fan of anything that has an old-school look. These chunky heels remind me of the 70s, and I’m completely and utterly obsessed. You can really play into the 70s with bell-bottoms or wear them with a summer dress for a more modern look.
These Combat Boots are a Fun Way to Make an Outfit Edgier
Combat boots are a style that has been around for years and doesn’t seem to be going anywhere anytime soon. Although small changes are made depending on what’s trendy, they’re a classic shoe that will always be cool. These combat boots are under $50 (which is pretty much unheard of for combat boots) but don’t sacrifice style or comfort.
These Transparent Heels Made Famous By the Kardashian-Jenner Sisters
As I’m typing this, I’m trying to come up with a reason to get these transparent heels. Because they are clear, they quite literally match anything and everything. I just never wear heels. Anyone want to go vacation or get married so I have an excuse to get these?! Plus everyone from Kylie Jenner to Kim K to Hailey Bieber wears them and soon to be me.
These Sandals are the Perfect Combo of Outdoorsy and Cute
We’re all familiar with the classic Birkenstock silhouettes (the Arizona), so why not switch it up with these sandals? They still have an outdoorsy look with the cork footbed but are a bit more unique. And the best part? The price. One Amazon user even said they were comfier than Birks for a quarter of the price, stating, “These are fantastic, comfortable and SO CUTE. They look just like Birkenstock Mayari sandals, for $22 after shopping instead of $105.”
These Slip-Ons are Ideal for Everyday Wear
Although I have my fair share of shoes, I tend to keep a few favorites in rotation. These shoes are typically pairs that I can wear with virtually any outfit, and they won’t fall apart on you immediately. I’m also super concerned about comfort. That’s why I love the slip-ons. They match literally everything, and they are super comfortable, which is great when you’re on your feet a lot.
You Need These Flip-Flops for Your Beach Days
I wear flip-flops every time I work outside, need to do some gardening, or am in a rush out of the house. These flip-flops are perfect if you’re looking for a shoe you can quickly throw on for gardening, the pool, the beach, or quick errands.
These Loafers are So Incredibly Comfortable
If you’re on Instagram, then you’ve probably seen at least one influencer share the Prada loafers or the Zara dupes.They’re all the rage right now. And while I did hate them when I first saw them, they’re growing on me. In fact, I’ve been eyeing these loafers for myself. They look like they are designer-made without the $500 price tag.
These Water Socks are Proof Water Shoes Can Be Cute
While water shoes may not be an everyday need, if you’re headed to the beach, then you’re going to want a pair. These water socks are quick-drying, non-slip, and can easily be folded so you can store them in your beach bag. Wear them to protect your feet from coral and rocks or keep your feet clean on a muddy hike.
The 90s Have Made a Comeback and These Sandals are the Perfect Example
Because trends change so often, I find that I have a hard time finding sandals that I like–especially ones that don’t cost an arm and a leg. That’s why I usually end up wearing a beat-up pair of sandals that I’ve had for years. I’m trying to break this habit, which is why I have my eyes on these sandals. Pair them with a summer dress or skirt to instantly dress up a rather simple outfit.
Dress These Sandals Up or Down
As I mentioned earlier, I love Birkenstocks. But they tend to give off a very casual look that is hard to wear with girlier pieces like dresses and skirts. These sandals are the best of both worlds because they have a comfortable cork bottom and a bow that immediately dresses them up compared to the OG Birks. Finally, you can wear a pair of sandals with a dress that won’t give you killer blisters.
These Slippers Look So Dang Cozy
While Arizona may not be cold, I’m constantly wearing slippers, even when it’s 100 degrees out–which, unfortunately, is 90% of the year. Who doesn’t love little pillows on your feet? These slippers have the perfect amount of memory foam, so your feet sink right in while keeping you nice and toasty.
These Tennis Shoes Feel Absolutely Weightless
Another Yeezy dupe? God, I’m good. One of the biggest reasons people love Yeezy sneakers so much is because they are unbelievably light. Well, these tennis shoes are too. As someone who primarily wears sneakers as a fashion statement, you can’t go wrong with these. I promise they’re great for long days on your feet too. Just look at the 3,500 reviews if you don’t believe me.
These Sneakers are a Quarter of the Price of the Name Brand Ones
These sneakers most likely look familiar as they look exactly like another name-brand company *cough Converse cough.* But the best part about these? They don’t cost $100. In fact, they’re under $25! That’s half of the price of the big name-brand shoe. Yet, they look identical.
Wear These Slides Gardening or By the Pool
I wear slides every time I work in my backyard or need to do some gardening. Because they’re made of rubber, they can be washed off super easy no matter how dirty they get. These slides are perfect if you’re looking for a shoe you can quickly throw on for all of your everyday errands.
I Want These Distressed Boots in Every Single Color
If you want the look of cowboy boots without going too over the top, you need these booties. They’re a more subtle western look that can still be worn with every type of outfit under the sun. They’re giving me disco cowboy vibes, and I think it’s a total look.
I Can’t Wait to Get My Hands on These Chunky Sandals
Are you a 90s baby who loved platform sandals when you were younger? If so, you’re in luck because they’re back in style! These platform sandals are a fashion-forward everyday staple that will also last you years. Pair them with denim cut-offs and a graphic tee for a laidback look or a dress for a girly grunge look.
These Hunter Rain Boots Will Last You Years
I decided to include two different rain boots on this list because sometimes you just need a high pair of boots that will get you through some serious flooding. If you live in the PNW, then you know how important it is after it rained cats and dogs. Hunter boots are a classic that will last you years, and they make for a fun, playful outfit that I wish I could rock here in the desert.
Wear These Booties Alllll Year Round
If something has snakeskin on it, then I am immediately sold. So to say that I am in love with these booties is a very obvious statement. One of the coolest parts is that they come in nine different snakeskin color combinations, so there’s something for everyone.
Add a Pop of Color to Your Wardrobe With These Pumps
I tend to gravitate towards very neutral pieces. From clothes to shoes to accessories, I prefer to keep it rather simple. However, these pumps make for a great pop of color for an otherwise minimalistic outfit. They also come in 18 different colors if being bold isn’t quite your thing.
These Flats Fold Up for Easy Transportation
If you’re in the office every day, then you’re probably familiar with business-casual attire. As much as I’d love to wear chunky platform sandals to work every day, I know it’s not practical for most. But who says work attire has to be ugly? These flats are a modern take on the classic style and can be dressed up or dressed down depending on the occasion.
I Love These Boots With Mini’s and Can’t Wait to Break Them Out Again
Hello, statement shoes! Sometimes you need to throw on a nice mini and make your boots the star of the show. And there’s no denying that these Steve Madden boots are fabulous. I got a pair last fall, and I tried to wear them every chance I could get. Whether it was with jeans and a sweater or an oversized sweater dress, these boots always got me so many compliments. I can’t wait to rock them again this year.
These Heeled Sandals Would Look So Cute Paired With a Summer Dress
Ever since putting together this list, I can’t stop thinking about these heeled sandals. The platform heel is very reminiscent of the 90s, and we all know that’s super hot right now. I can just picture the outfit in my head right now–a patterned mini dress, chunky gold jewelry, and these shoes. My 12-year-old self would be geeking.
Going For a Retro Look? Get These Polka-Dotted Heels
I’m gonna be the first to admit that I do not wear any type of fancy shoes. I very rarely have nice occasions to dress up for in the first place. So, to say that I am more of a sandal and boots kind of gal is an understatement. However, these polka-dotted heels are super cute if you ever have a special occasion where you need to dress up a bit and want to add a playful pattern. The polka-dots scream the 1950s, and I can’t get enough!
