Just try to take these off my feet.

If your feet hurt just looking at someone wearing stilettos on your Instagram feed (@me), you know you need comfortable walking sandals to survive this busy summer. From date nights to family barbecues to beach days, your feet deserve to look cute without sacrificing comfort. So, you need a pair of kicks that can not only get the job done in the moment, but make sure you're still standing at the end of the day. Enter the new generation of comfortable walking sandals.

I know, I know. Historically, sandals boasting top-notch arch support have gotten a bad rep in the style department. But long gone are the days of sturdy shoes looking like they belong in your grandma's closet instead of the front row at fashion week. Sure, comfortable sandals for women still need to have robust, rubberized soles, a cushioned footbed for arch support, soft uppers made of natural fabric or leather, and buckled ankle straps. But—believe it or not—you don't need to sacrifice style to get all that.

These 18 comfortable walking sandals will work for anyone (no matter what kind of foot problems you're dealing with) and go with practically everything in your closet. All you need now is a fresh pedicure, and you're good to go.

These sandals serve up summer camp nostalgia but with an adult-style flair, thanks to its hand-woven nylon cord upper. Plus, the sole is made of high-quality rubber that'll make you feel like you're walking on air with built-in arch support. Oh, and I did I mention these babies are water resistant? Because they are—and come in 22 colors. (So, if you wanna get a pair for every day of the week... you totally can.)

Nobody wants to be the person slip-sliding around in her flip-flops, which is what makes this option so appealing. With their anti-slip design, you can be sure your feet will be gripped in and ready to take on all of your summer activities. Plus, the design balances pressure and reduces the stress on your feet.

Sustainably made and designed in California, this classic thong sandal features the Californians brand's signature Coastal Comfort Sole, with a traction rubber bottom, super soft foam midsole, and a hand-stained leather footbed.

These aren't your weird hippie uncle's Birkenstocks. The latest updates to this iconic shoe marry serious style with best-in-class comfort. While classic Birkenstocks usually take several weeks to break in, the Sydney Sandals feature the brand's signature Soft Footbed technology. The perks: An extra layer of foam cushioning in between the cork and suede that provide immediate comfort, plus the contoured cork footbed supports all four arches of your foot and conforms to the exact shape of your foot over time. And did I mention it comes in three summer-ready colors?

Don’t let the sleek design of these sandals fool you. This super chic heel—which comes in black, tan, and snakeskin—is perfect for a long day on your feet. The memory foam padding will make sure you stay comfy and out of pain all day long. And, you’ll look cute AF doing it.

The classic Teva sandal recently got a facelift any Real Housewife would envy with these colorful, rugged infinity straps. Plus, the sporty-chic webbing won't chafe your skin, but is still super durable.

These flats have just a slight heel. Want to look oh-so-sophisticated, while remaining close to the ground? These are the summer sandals for you. They have one wide band that will keep your feet from slipping while cradling you in a soft and comfy memory foam sole.
