The Italian Shoe With a 36,000-Person Waitlist Is on Sale Right Now

If there’s one thing social distancing has proven, it’s that life is far too short to wear shoes that aren’t comfortable. This, of course, becomes obvious when you’re swapping out your slippers for actual shoes far fewer times a week than usual.

So when you find a stylish comfy shoe, you need to hold on tight — and maybe even buy a few more pairs. Lucky for us, direct-to-consumer brand M.Gemi has made doing so totally and completely reasonable with its semi-annual sale that runs through the holiday weekend.

The sale features some of the brand’s most popular styles, including the Felize: a comfortable slip-on with a history of consistently selling out since its launch in 2015. It also once boasted a waitlist of more than 36,000 people, which is, you know, pretty massive.

Aside from the slide that captivated several thousand patient shoppers, you can also score the Italian-style Sacca Donna loafer — which sold out immediately upon its release — for 30 percent off.

If you haven’t heard of M.Gemi before now, prepare to meet your new go-to brand. Each shoe is handmade in Italy but not as expensive as many other pairs thanks to the DTC business model, so you can snag a luxury feel without the price tag. Our comfy shoe North Star, Reese Witherspoon, has even collaborated with the brand on a limited-edition line.

Give your feet some love by heading to M.Gemi to get comfy sandals, sneakers, and heels at serious discounts through Sunday. We suggest not waiting until then.
