We hope you love our recommendations! Some may have been sent as samples, but all were independently selected by our editors. Just FYI, BuzzFeed and its publishing partners may collect a share of sales and/or other compensation from the links on this page.
Unless otherwise specified, all sizes in this post are listed in women's.
1.A round-toe Chelsea boot to fortify your perpetually cold feet while adding a pastel to your early spring outfits. Its toebox provides extra room for cozy socks (bye-bye, boot tightness), and its banded design protects your entire foot from the elements!
2.Or a Chelsea rain boot with a similar roomy (and colorful) design, but, obvi, for those spring showers that act like downright monsoons.
3.A pair of scrunch ballet flats that conform to your feet while you serve your best #balletcore look. They're also quite handy to keep in your bag when you know your feet won't last all night in stilettos.
4.A pair of Western booties to prove that tying together a chic outfit doesn't have to mean contorting your toes into an uncomfortable boot. What's more, these booties have a handy zipper, which is excellent if you often struggle (same — wide feet problems) to casually slip into most cowboy boots.
Walmart
Promising review: "I would never pay a lot of money for a trendy item like this, so I don't expect much. These are inexpensive, super comfy, and are well-made. I'm gonna have some fun with these this fall and winter." —Kimberly
Price: $10.84+ (originally $48; available in sizes 6–10 and four styles)
5.A pair of buckle clogs that you can wear whenever you want to feel like you're wearing comfy slippers but still want to look put together. Aka, wear them to the market, the coffee shop, or while going on a post-dinner stroll.
6.A pair of smiley slippers so that your toesies can feel plush, warm, and cozy while you binge-watch The Traitors.
7.A roomy knee-high Western boot that is the best way to spruce up any outfit with little to no thought required. Blue jeans and a white tee? Check. Floral dress and a moto jacket? They go with that. Tights and your favorite oversized sweater? Yep!
8.A square-toe mule that gives the illusion of a pointed-toe shoe while offering the comfort of a wider square toe.
9.A glitzy sandal with a block heel so thick, you won't have to worry about wobbly ankles. Plus, this shoe's square toe (as opposed to a narrower one) is heaven-sent for people with wide feet.
10.A platform boot because platforms always look more intense than they feel! Thanks to their padded soles, platform boots like these feel shorter than they appear — and since these wrap around the entire foot and ankle, you can walk for miles knowing these babies won't be slipping and sliding off your feet.

Promising review: "These boots are so cute! They fit perfectly and I really like the slight stretch, kind of like a rubberized sock booty. They are very comfortable and I can't wait to start wearing them." —Wendy
Price: $14.60+ (originally $30.86; available in sizes 6–11 and in two colors)
11.A chic woven block-heel mule you can slip into whenever you need a versatile, goes-with-everything shoe that can be worn to a fancy outing or even on a casual workday.
12.Or a flat pointed-toe mule, just in case you want the look of a fancy dancing shoe without the painful heel. Consider this an upgrade to those flip-flops that you switch into at weddings. (Oh, and they obvi double as a way to add pizzazz to your everyday outfits!)
13.A pair of strappy platforms to prepare you for wedding season! The trick to nailing weddings is to wear shoes that you can *actually* see yourself wearing for hours on end. With their glitzy finish, cushioned platform, and supportive straps, these are a great option.
14.A pair of canvas slip-on sneakers that adds a retro look to your outfit and bounce to your steps with a platform-like (seriously, these are thicc) cushy sole.
15.A pair of tech sneakers that are lightweight and suuuuuper cushion-y, making it the ideal shoe to train for that 5K you have lined up this spring. These sneakers have a breathable mesh upper and adjustable laces, which is all any long-distance runner would ever want when avoiding discomfort á la foot swelling.
16.A cute ballet flat that has a hidden bow at the heel! What's more, this flat has a bouncy rubber sole, making it super walkable. If you need a shoe that can last through your commute *and* look great during the workday, this is it.
Walmart
Price: $75.75 (available in sizes 7–12, including wide and extra-wide sizes, and in five colors)
17.A colorblock rain boot just in case "spring showers" reads more like "torrential downpour season" in your neck of the woods. These will keep your pants and toes dry while remaining comfy with their extra-wide opening.
18.An open-toe sandal with a cork sole that absorbs shock. It's great if you plan on traversing an old Roman city (hi, marble floors) during the warmer months — or, ya know, traversing your city's downtown during your Sunday off.
19.A comfy Mary Jane flat because everyone needs a cute, versatile, slip-resistant shoe. These are especially great for people who work on their feet for long hours as the wide toebox allows for natural swelling, and the Mary Jane straps hold your feet in place.
20.A pair of faux-wood platform sandals so you can serve the look of a Scandinavian clog without the stiffness that comes along with *literal* wooden soles. Oh, and unlike many strapped sandals, this pair comes with adjustable straps around the heel and the toebox.
21.A pair of knit slip-on Skechers that you can easily glide into while running your morning errands. They have a supportive sole and a stretchy upper, making them feel like slippers that are actually socially acceptable for out-of-the-house wear. Oh, and there's a Yorkie print hidden on the lining of these shoes — I'll take 20?!?!
22.A pair of cushioned toe-strap sandals, just in case you're a fan of the springy Birkenstock version but want the shoe to align with your budget *and* style. These look very cute and have adjustable straps to hold your feet in place.
23.A platform slide sandal that sits at the epicenter of cute, comfy, and supportive. You'll shed a happy tear every time you put them on, thinking about how far the footwear industry has come in making things both stylish and wearable. :,)
24.A comfy training sneaker that will add a cute, minimal touch to your look as you hit new PRs at the gym. This sneaker's FuelFoam midsole provides cushion and bounce while its grooved outsole creates flexibility as you bend, flex, and stretch away.
