For all of us fashion-forward girls out there, there’s no time like summer to rock that perfect pair of heels. Whether you’re wondering what to wear on a first date or just out shopping with your gal pals, summer is the season to be out and about with some comfortable and fashionable footwear. However, many of us have time and time again faced the dilemma of finding comfortable heels. Well, worry no more! Today we’re going to share with you our five favorite places to shop for cute, affordable, and (most importantly) comfortable heels this summer.

Nasty Gal

What’s in a name? This novel brand started in the 2000s as an e-tailer and since then primarily conducts its sales online. In particular, this is a brand for those saucy gals who aren’t afraid to challenge conventions and make their statement. But best of all, it’s also a brand where you can find some of the cutest clothes and accessories for bargain prices!

Block Heel Sandals

On that note, can we say we’re absolutely in love with these heels? Whether you go for the silver or sage green, they are timelessly chic and exceptionally comfortable at the same time. These heels have broad support and comfortable straps to hold your feet in place without restricting your range of motion. And do they make a statement? Oh yes, we’d say they scream, “Comfortable heels rule!”

Nordstrom

Low Heeled Sandal

Coming back to our side of the “pond” (also known as the Atlantic Ocean), this quintessential American brand does streetwear and summer fashion better than most. Also a brick-and-mortar retailer (versus other e-tailers), Urban Outfitters represents an undeniable step up when it comes to quality versus other brands. While some may consider them a fast-fashion retailer, the price points, styles, and brands they carry are more on the luxury end of things. As such, we’ll mention three of their excellent (yet affordable) choices that you might regret not buying.

These nude low heels are definitely cute, versatile, and summer-appropriate. But at this price point, you’d be remiss to not look for something more. These “Seychelles Rest Assured Heeled Sandals” are without a doubt some of the most comfortable, durable, and grippy heels you’ll ever encounter. Their level of quality speaks for itself, but you can seriously wear these all day as if they were your best walking shoes. In our books, there’s little more one could ask for when searching for a pair of comfortable heels.

Metallic Heels

It’s no coincidence then that these silver heels from Nordstrom look high-end while being sold at an unbeatable price. The best part? While these elegant heels are indeed pointed, it’s actually an optical illusion created by their ties! They’re actually very spacious in the front, and we’d overall say they’re extremely comfortable. In terms of price, comfort, and style, buying a pair of these is simply a no-brainer.

ASOS

A UK brand, ASOS is a household name in the fashion community because it represents quality and a high level of customer service. In fact, many do not consider it to be a fast-fashion brand because of its variety of ethically produced clothing. Regardless, this e-tailer dwarfs Boohoo in terms of size and consequently also its selection. 

Pointed Toe Red Heeled Sandals

Given its wide selection, this brand presents so many choices when it comes to comfortable heels. Whether you’re looking for something with a block heel, wedge, or stiletto, the number of choices seems to be endless. However, we really zeroed in on this pair of baby red heels because of their sense of occasion. Yes, they’re very comfortable and also very versatile. But whether you’re wearing jeans, a sundress, or an evening dress, these satin heels will definitely turn heads if they don’t snap necks.

Urban Outfitters

Buckle Mule Heel

But maybe you’re looking for something a bit chicer to it. That’s where these heeled mules come in. By nature, mules are not meant to be dressy, but these would look oh-so-good with a pair of jeans or a sundress. On top of that, they’re exceptionally comfortable, and grippy, and even have good arch support! When it comes to comfortable summertime heels, we’d definitely put these on our “must buy” list at this price point.

Amazon

What list of online shopping options would be complete without Amazon’s choices? This behemoth of a company seems to have everything under the sun – including lots of choices of comfortable heels! But we’ll point you to three that are both exceptionally stylish AND comfortable.

Platform Sandal

Our first choice is all about the comfort. It comes in various colors and has a thick comfortable heel. But honestly, the thing we love the most is how easily you can dress up any of these colors to look like an absolute queen while you’re out at a any event—enough said.

Pumps Heels

Onto our next choice, it also has a dressy pumps heel, and this one is close-toed. So how can it be comfortable? Remember, these pumps are made with cushioned insole and padded footbed, and that’s where the secret to their comfort lies. Reviewers say they feel like you’re walking on a cloud. Well, the same technology helps make these exceptionally comfortable heels.

Pointed Toe Ballerina

As for our last choice – their style really takes things to a whole new level. As their name suggests, these closed pointed-toe slip-on kitten heels, have an extra bit of sexy to them with their elegance, and ultimate classy look that is never out of style. So if you’re looking to blow the socks off your dinner date or generally want to make an impression wherever you go, these are your heels. Best of all, they come in SO many different colors to match your dress choices, a classy choice for sure!

Which heels are most comfortable?

The most supportive and comfortable types of heels are believed to be kitten heels, wedge heels, and chunky or block heels. If comfort is important, stay away from heels that are thinner and higher and choose shoes that are more comfortable to walk in.

What are the easiest heels to walk in?

Since they are more comfortable to wear and simpler to walk in than stilettos, wedge heels are a great alternative. Wedge heels are ideal if you’re going to be wearing heels for any period of time.

What type of heels hurt the least?

Your friends are low heels, chunky heels, and platforms. My shoe collection is dominated by these kinds of heels, for good reason. By relieving some of the strain on your foot, all of these items will help you conclude the day with pain-free feet.
