Don’t get me wrong: I love online shopping. It’s convenient, it’s fast, and frankly, it’s a lot of fun. But considering the fact that you can’t actually try on the product before ordering it, you run the risk of buying something ill-fitting or uncomfortable. And as someone who has way too many uncomfortable shoes gathering dust in her closet, this con is enough to make me hesitate before hitting “Buy Now” on a new pair — despite desperately needing comfy options for fall.
If you find yourself in the same boat, fear not. You can turn to Amazon, which prioritizes descriptive, trusted shopper reviews, to get a better idea of how a pair of shoes will feel, fit, and look. To save you time sifting through the site, I’ve handpicked 10 of the best comfy shoe deals happening on Amazon right now, just in time for autumn. Ahead, you’ll find plenty of versatile sneakers and lightweight slip-ons, but you’ll also find supportive, fall-friendly boots, cozy slippers, and sleek loafers, too, all top-rated for their comfort and quality.
If you find something you like, though, I recommend acting fast: Many of these discounts (up to 64 percent off, in some cases) won’t last long.
Adidas Lite Racer 4.0 Running Shoes
Kicking off the list are these sleek Adidas Lite Racer 4.0 athletic sneakers. Originally listed at $60, this style is on sale with certain colors running as low as $40. Made with the brand’s patented Cloudfoam midsole, a sock liner, and a lightweight, breathable upper, these shoes put comfort at the forefront. While these are great for running, the classic silhouette of the uppers gives them an elevated, stylish look that pairs just as well with jeans as it does with activewear.
Rocket Dog Cheery Sneakers
These cozy corduroy-covered sneakers from Rocket Dog make great casual sneakers for fall. These low-top sneakers are made with plush foam comfort insoles, textured rubber outsoles, and matching lace eyelets. Their classic silhouette makes them versatile enough to pair with jeans, skirts, and leggings alike. And according to one five-star reviewer, the comfort and quality made them well “worth the cost.” Lucky for you, though, they’re currently on sale for as low as $30.
Puma Softride Enzo Evo Sneakers
For a limited time, you can save up to 35 percent on these Softride Enzo Evo Sneakers from Puma. A combination of the brand’s Softride and Enzo footwear franchises, these cross trainers are suited for everything from hours-long city tours to high-intensity workouts. Featuring a durable molded TPU cage on the upper, a plush EVA cushioned midsole, and a cozy sock liner, these athletic shoes provide all-day comfort on hectic travel days.
Sperry Crest Vibe Core Sneakers
These preppy sneakers from boat shoe brand Sperry have earned over 9,000 five-star ratings on Amazon for their comfort, style, and versatility. Currently, over 40 percent off, these casual sneakers are built to last with their durable textile uppers, rustproof lace eyelets, and non-marking rubber outsoles. The elastic back and heel pull tab make them easy to slip on and off, while the removable arch-supporting footbed adds additional support. Leather cord laces complete the look.
Hey Dude Wendy Linen Loafers
This slip-on linen loafer from Hey Dude is the highest-rated shoe on this list, boasting over 24,000 five-star ratings on Amazon alone. It’s received high marks for comfort, feel, and quality — and frankly, we can see why. Not only do they come with elastic laces, removable memory foam insoles, and an ultralight, grippy outsole, but they’re also machine-washable and weigh less than 5 ounces, making them a stellar travel shoe choice. For a limited time, you can grab a pair of these shopper-beloved slip-ons for just $28.
Sketchers Go Walk Joy Sneakers
Award-winning footwear brand Skechers is perhaps best known for its vast collection of comfy, travel-friendly walking sneakers. Case in point? The Go Walk Joy slip-on sneakers, which are currently on sale for $45. Available in 10 different colorways, these slip-ons have a cushioned air-cooled Goga Mat insole that keeps sweaty feet at bay and a breathable knit upper that promotes airflow with each step. Over 2,500 five-star reviewers rave about their comfort and fit, with one sharing that wearing them feels like “walking on a cloud.”
Aerosoles Big Bet Ballet Flats
Standard ballet flats are notorious for lacking arch support, but these Big Bet Ballet Flats from Aerosoles are constructed with an Ortholite padded foam insole. Currently on sale for $25 — a whopping 64 percent off the original price — these flats feature a gold hardware buckle above the toes and a flat heel. The diamond flex rubber outsole provides traction on slippery surfaces, and, according to one five-star reviewer, they’ve proven to be a great addition to their other travel wardrobe essentials.
Dearfoams Moritz Slippers
Fall may have just arrived, but we’re already daydreaming about scary movie marathons and snowed-in hangs by the fireplace. These fuzzy Moritz slippers, on sale for $50, are perfect for both scenarios and beyond, featuring plush faux fur interiors, cozy suede uppers, and a removable, shock-absorbing, fully-contoured footbed. While the word “slippers” may suggest they’re only intended for the indoors, these slippers come with a lightweight, skid-resistant rubber outsole built to withstand outdoor use. One five-star reviewer attested to their durability, too, reporting that their first pair was still going strong after a year’s worth of machine washes and wears, both indoors and outdoors.
Cliffs by White Mountain Duena Boots
Depending on the style and brand, lace-up boots can be uncomfortable. These Duena boots, on sale for just $39, put comfort at the forefront with their soft sweater ankle cuffs and cushiony padded insoles. The brass lace eyelets and fold-over shaft give these boots a vintage hiking boot appearance while being lightweight enough to throw in a checked bag. The rubber outsole provides grip on rainy days, and one five-star reviewer happily reported that they are wide-feet-approved as the interiors have plenty of room for broader feet.
Bacia Sock Top Chelsea Boots
These lug-sole Chelsea boots are comfortable enough for all-day wear and an additional 20 percent off thanks to an on-site coupon. You won’t have to deal with painful ankle blisters thanks to their stretchy sock tops, which, in conjunction with the heel pull tabs, make taking them on and off a breeze. They’re constructed with thick rubber non-slip outsoles and feature a roomy rounded toe box for added comfort. Several five-star reviewers attest to the fit of these boots, with one over-50-year-old shopper reporting that these have proven to be comfortable despite having sensitive feet.
