Why do I need this? 🤔

People love these cloud slippers for that cloud-like feel, but they have another big asset: They're waterproof, so you can wear them to the pool, at the sauna or in the shower without damaging them; their nonslip outsoles keep you stable. But there's plenty more to love about these slides. The relief comes with a soft and flexible outsole, molded cushion footbed and a non-slip sole. You can count on that. They're available in 30 colors ranging from basic black and brown to poppy purples and pinks, though prices vary by color.

A lot of runners use what are called “recovery shoes" after workouts to help their feet recuperate. The idea has caught on with non-runners as well — and these slides have gained traction (if you will) with Amazon shoppers to ease post-exercise foot pain.

What reviewers say 💬

Folks who spend a lot of time on their feet say these slides make it less of a chore, whether at home or at work.

Pros 👍

“These shoes are so comfortable,” one reported. “I work in sales and stand all day. These slides are a pillow for my aching feet.”

“My daughter had a pair of these that she told me to try them … amazingly comfortable,” said one customer. “Heel spurs, neuromas or other aches melt away. Very affordable comfort. Easy to wipe down. I wouldn’t mind having some other colors for summer pool and beach wear."

“I have spondylolisthesis and spinal stenosis, so I get horrible back, leg and foot pain,” wrote a relieved reviewer. “These shoes literally help relieve my pain while I’m working standing on my feet. They are super cute — I get tons of compliments on them — and they are breathable, lightweight and easy to keep clean.”

Cons 👎

Some shoppers find these sandals may not be true to size. “A little loose over the top," cited one. "But I do wear socks with them, making a snugger feel."

"Wish they fit tighter," said another. "These just fit too loosely across the top of my foot to feel confident. For reference, I’m usually an 8, sometimes 8.5 and I ordered the 8. I think I might even have to size down."
