Women's Sandals

Skechers' women's sandals range covers everything from breezy summer slides to cushioned walking sandals built for all-day wear. Looking for comfortable sandals for women that work as hard as you do? Here are our top picks for women's sandal styles for summer 2026:

  • Slide sandals have one or more straps over the top of the foot and no back strap, so you can slip them on in seconds. They're perfect for warm days, beach trips and quick errands. Skechers' GO WALK Flex Sandals, like Kat, have cushioned footbeds and grippy outsoles. They stay comfortable for hours, not just for lounging.
  • Walking sandals are built for distance, not just style. They feature supportive footbeds, sturdy outsoles and adjustable straps that keep your foot secure when you're on the move. The GO WALK Arch Fit 2.0 Sandal (like Chloe and Claire) combines podiatrist-developed Arch Fit support with all-day cushioning putting it among the best comfortable sandals for women who walk for miles. 
  • Wedge sandals add height through a solid sole that runs from heel to toe in one piece, giving you lift without the wobble of a stiletto. They work for casual days and dressier evenings alike. Skechers' wedge sandals are some of the most comfortable sandals for women who want polished style without sore feet at the end of the day, thanks to Air-Cooled Memory Foam footbeds and supportive uppers.
  • Flat sandals are the most versatile and comfortable everyday sandal. Look for styles with cushioned footbeds and adjustable straps for the best fit. The GO WALK Flex Sandal range includes flat sandals like Lindsey and Butterfly Bliss, designed for easy wear from morning to night. 
  • Chunky Sandals feature thick, statement-making soles and bold straps for a confident, modern look. They're a trending style that works as well with summer dresses as they do with shorts and jeans. Look for chunky styles with cushioned footbeds and stable platforms, so you get the bold aesthetic without sacrificing all-day comfort.
  • Strappy sandals use multiple thin straps across the foot for a secure, customisable fit and an elegant look. They work as well with sundresses as they do with jeans. Skechers' Slip-ins Glide-Step strappy sandals add the convenience of step-in technology to a classic strappy silhouette, with smooth-rolling cushioning that supports natural foot motion.
  • Toe-post sandals: Toe-post sandals (flip-flop style) are ultra-light and easy to wear, making them a summer staple. The GO WALK Flex Sandal Lindsey is a top-selling toe-post style with cushioned support that flip-flops typically lack.

Sandals for Foot Comfort & Support

Not all sandals are built for support. If you're on your feet all day, deal with foot pain, or have a condition like plantar fasciitis or flat feet, the right pair makes a real difference. Skechers' Arch Fit technology is podiatrist-developed and offers the kind of structured support you simply won't get from flat, unsupportive sandals, giving you stylish orthopedic sandals that don't compromise on the looks side either.

Best Sandals for Plantar Fasciitis

The best sandals for plantar fasciitis offer firm arch support, a cushioned footbed and a secure strap system. Look for stylish orthopedic sandals with built-in arch support technology like Skechers Arch Fit, which is podiatrist-developed to support the natural shape of your foot and help reduce heel pain. 

Best Sandals for Wide Feet

If standard sandals feel tight or pinch your toes, look for wide fitting sandals for women with adjustable straps and a roomy toe box. Many Skechers wide fitting sandals for women come in dedicated wide-fit sizing, so you get a proper fit instead of a forced compromise. Styles with multiple adjustable straps work best because you can loosen them to accommodate your foot shape without losing security. Browse wide fit sandals for the full range of wide fitting sandals for women available at Skechers.

Best Sandals for All-Day Walking

For all-day walking, sightseeing or holidays, choose a sandal with a cushioned midsole, supportive footbed and grippy outsole. The GO WALK Arch Fit 2.0 range is purpose-built for distance and works as a pair of stylish orthopedic sandals you'd actually want to wear, with the same arch support technology used in our walking shoes and trainers. They are ideal for tourists, commuters and anyone who clocks up serious mileage on their feet.

Best Sandals for Arch Support

If you have flat feet, high arches, or just need more underfoot support, look for sandals with structured arch support built into the footbed. Skechers Arch Fit sandals are a top pick when it comes to stylish orthopedic sandals because they include a moulded support system that follows the natural shape of the foot, all in designs that don't look clinical. This is the same technology used in our podiatrist-recommended walking shoes.
