Finding stylish shoes that offer exceptional arch and heel support is no easy feat—most options out there look like they’ve been plucked right out of your grandma’s closet. But you actually don’t have to sacrifice fashionable designs in order to make out with minimal foot pain at the end of the day.
If you haven’t heard of Reef, now’s the time to get acquainted. The brand offers high-quality, ultra-cushioned shoes that are meant to carry you throughout your day with ease, whether you’re standing on end for hours or walking for miles. Reef is also very environmentally friendly, since it sources durable, and sustainable materials like cork, cotton, jute and wood, as well as bio-based EVA derived from sugar cane.
Reef carries a variety of shoe styles, a bulk of which are warm weather-friendly options (but there’s sneakers you can wear year-round up for grabs, too). Its best-selling offerings come with thousands of glowing reviews from shoppers—many of who are already on their third or fourth pair from the brand.

This astrological shoe collab with SANCTUARY brings a hip spin on dad sandals with its playful colors and funky printed footbed. The strappy platforms have a lightweight lug sole and are cushioned throughout to keep your feet from tiring out. Reviewers say they can easily be dressed up or down, depending on the occasion.
Water-friendly, flexible, and a squishy footbed are the main features you’ll get with this slip-on sandal. One person shared in their review that they bought these because “I was tired of always buying new house slippers since the support gets worn down so quickly.” Plus, with a 2-year old “running around” all the time, they were “looking for something that was more durable, supportive and still cute for being at home doing chores.” Select colors are currently on sale.
These are probably the cutest sandals on our list—while the coral shade (currently discounted) is super summery, the black and cocoa shades also caught our eye for September.
As one reviewer wrote, “I absolutely love these sandals! They are super cute and so comfortable. I am a hairstylist so I stand for 6+ hours a day and also have plantar fasciitis. My feet do not bother me at all when I wear these or my other Reef shoes! Finally!”
Something particularly special about this sneaker (beyond its cute color blocking pattern) is the hidden wedge insole; they elongate your legs while offering optimal support. The rubber cupshoe also ensures you’ve got top-tier traction while perforations throughout keep them breathable (and never smelly!)
Summer may be winding down, but if you live in an area close to the beach, you may still want to invest in a pair of the Reef Water Vista’s, a water-friendly sandal you can take from the ocean to happy hour. Dirt, sand and whatever else you may encounter just slides right off.
It’s not too soon to start thinking about slip-ons for the fall, and this suede pair has everything you need to keep your feet cozy and snug. Made with the brand’s “most comfortable foodbed yet,” the shoes feature a blend of arch support, deep heel cupping, a cork topsheet, and cushiony, boundback support all throughout.
