A gel insert in the heel helps absorb shock, while reflective details on the outside of the shoe keep you visible to drivers and other pedestrians at dusk or dawn. Combined with a breathable mesh upper (no more sweaty feet) and a higher heel counter (bye, blisters and hot spots), this pair is truly designed with your comfort in mind.

These 2023 Sneaker Award–winning hiking boots will be your new bestie if you’re planning to hit the trails this fall. And they’re made to last for many seasons to come with a durable, waterproof exterior that puddles hate to see coming. They’re on the heavier side at 17.1 ounces, so our tester needed to get used to them, but it was worth it: “It took me a few moments to get my rhythm down, but once I did, I was in a great, sturdy stride that felt supported and confident,” they said. “I can see myself wearing them through all seasons.”

SELF’s commerce director just bought these pumps last week, and is kicking herself that they’re now on sale (up to 44% off, in some colors). “I have a trip to Paris coming up, and needed a pair of shoes that will be appropriate for a fancy dinner but comfortable enough for a stroll along the Seine afterwards,” she says. “These absolutely fit the bill. Naturalizer is known for its padded, contoured footbeds, and I love that this style has a buckle strap so that I can feel confident there won’t be any heel slippage when I walk.”

As far as walking shoes go, Reebok’s Classic Nylon Sneaker is, well, a classic; and Skechers’ Sneaker Award–winning Max Cushioning Elite 2.0 is cushy and comfy, even if you’re on your feet all day. Both Ryka’s Devotion X and the GT-1000 12 from Asics are surprisingly lightweight for how supportive they are—our senior commerce writer swears by the flexible Devotion X for her flat feet.

You don’t have to pay full price to make your feet feel good. With their supportive footbeds and densely cushioned insoles, these shoes have the stamp of approval from podiatrists, who have previously recommended them by name to SELF. They’re great options for anyone who deals with plantar fasciitis (which is commonly characterized by heel pain) or just wants some extra support in their footwear.
Prime Day trail running shoe deals
Trail running shoes help you stay light on your feet (and avoid eating dirt) when you take your jogs off-road. Experts love Altra’s Lone Peak as well as Saucony’s Peregrine model—they’re both considered highly protective, with great traction that’ll keep you going over the trickiest terrain.
