And not only are they sinfully comfortable, they’re totally fashionable too.
For the past month, we’ve been on the hunt for stylish, yet comfortable shoes fr the modern mom who wants to look great but doesn’t want blisters at the end of the day. We know that whether you’re chasing around a toddler or have to walk more than 6 steps during your day, you’re going to want comfortable shoes.
So in the name of shoe science, we’ve been trying out some supposedly comfy shoes from brands like SoftSpots, Asgi, and Clarks for the last few weeks, and we’ve chosen the winners based on overall comfort, style, and wearability (meaning how many different things you can wear them with).
Here are the winners:
1st Place Winner
What: Sofft “Freeda” Ankle Bootie in Black Leather
These fashionable booties win 1st place for comfort, style, and wearability. Please read our full review here. These are super comfortable, fulled padded insole, stable heel, and you can literally wear them with anything. The only downside is the price, but they’re totally worth it.

Insole: 5 Stars
Wearability: 5 Stars
Price: 4 stars
Price: $129.95 – $139.95

2nd Place Winner
What: Asgi ‘Carina’ Bootie
These slip on boots win 2nd place! They are super comfortable with a fully padded insole and footbed. I wore these shopping for 6 hours and they were completely comfortable. The only downside of this particular design is I wouldn’t wear them with dresses or skirts and they are quite expensive. These aren’t “Trend” shoes though, so you’ll wear them year after year, which makes them definitely worth it.

These cute slip-ons get 3rd place. They are super comfortable and feature an EVA midsole and a soft Pillow Top™ footbed that lends luxurious all-day comfort. This shoe is perfect for wearing with all your pants, jeans, and slacks. Simple, chic, and non-trendy makes these shoes a great investment for long-term wear. Plus, these have a more pleasant looking price than most high-end shoes.

5th Place Winner
What: Hush Puppies “Adeline” Suede Booties
These suede booties squeaked into 5th place. Their sleek design and wearability won us over. These however are the least comfortable choice. They are definitely more comfortable than most other shoes, but offer the least amount of padding. I recommend getting a pair of Foot Petals to go with these. The fabulously chic design and cute scrunched strap makes these perfect to wear with pants, jeans, and dresses. Great for Fall and Winter!
