It's official: "ugly" slide sandals are this summer's reigning shoe. Many versions of the supermodel-approved style have been spotted in the wild lately, from fluffy Uggs to poolside slip-ons to OG Birkenstocks, and new variations only continue to crop up as we approach the thick heat of the warmer months.
Ready to slip into a pair of your own ugly slides? Look no further than Nordstrom's Half-Yearly Sale, where countless options are up for grabs. If you're in need of a little encouragement to take the plunge on the controversial trend, rest assured style icons like Hailey Bieber, Gwenyth Paltrow, Katie Holmes, Gigi Hadid, Megan Fox, and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez have already paved the way by wearing this questionable style in place of classically cute sandals.

Taking into account the molded footbeds and quilted, bubbly bands some designs boast — we're looking at you two, Canny Slide Sandal and Kari Slide Sandal — ugly sandals' cushiony, feet-friendly feel sounds far more appealing than the skin-digging straps and unsupportive heels our current shoe racks hold. Plus, when dozens of celebrities silently create a fashion movement, how can we not follow suit?

Luckily, with Nordstrom's vast selection of goodies, you don't necessarily have to match the prices often worn by trend leaders. You'll find options that reach as low as $12, like these BP. Plush Slide Slippers with a fuzzy, cloud-like sole that's perfect for wearing around the house, or styles with stronger foundations, like the Dr. Scholl's Pisces Slides that have a cushioned EVA footbed with arch support.
