5 Best Slip-On Shoes
Birkenstock Boston
If these super comfy clog slides aren’t already in your wardrobe, you’re seriously missing out. Birkenstock’s soft footbed hits all the contours of your sole, providing the arch support you need as you shuffle around on vacation or run errands at home. These are great for year-round wear when paired with a chunky sock in cooler months. An adjustable strap prevents slipping. Available multiple colors and in narrow and wide sizes.
Dr. Scholl’s Madison
Available in a variety of materials and finishes, this classic slip-on sneaker from Dr Scholl’s features a Memory Foam Cool Fit footbed and super breathable interior. The extra padding will keep feet cozy as you walk the city streets, and the sturdy rubber outsole stands up to rough wear.

When the occasion calls for fancy but you’re in a flip flop state of mind, let this elegant mule class up your look. The horse-bit brass buckle suggests a Gucci vibe but at a sliver of the price.

Rockport Bennet Lane 4 Venetian
A sharp loafer for sprucing up your at-home ensemble, and—when safe—those dressy holiday gatherings. Available in black, blue, or brown leather, as well as navy suede.

Vans Classic Slip-On Core Classics
Is this the best slip-on shoe ever created? Probably, yes. It’s hard to beat this classic canvas slip-on that goes with anything. Wear them for a day of bumming around the house, running errands, or even to louche-up a summer suit. The more you wear them in, the better they look. Available in an endless array of colors, but you’ll probably get the most mileage from a pair in white, black, or navy slip-ons.
