That time of the year is right around the corner: warm breezes, flowers in bloom, after-dinner strolls…and unsightly toes after a long, long winter. Classy closed toe sandals are in order, especially if you prefer to cover up unpolished toenails, hammertoes or bunions. Here are six of our favorite closed toe sandals with comfort features like soft leathers, cushioned insoles and decent arch support.
Made in Spain with soft suede uppers, a supportive cork footbed with arch and metatarsal support, the Taos Culture closed-toe sandal is a perfect option for problem feet. Find a pair in sizes 6-11 for $120 from Zappos and Amazon.
Crisp linen uppers keep toes cool in warm temperatures. The Toni Pons Verona features a generous toe box and secure fit at the instep and ankle. A happy Nordstrom customer says,
“This shoe is a classic espadrille from Spain. The shoe is very comfortable and the toe box provides room for your toes on a warm day.”
Available in sizes 5-11 for $105 from Nordstrom and Zappos.
A dupe for the popular Dansko Rowan, this non-leather (PU) sandal features a memory foam/cork footbed with moderate arch support and an adjustable hook and loop closure (velcro), all for under $40! Find a pair in sizes 5.5-11 for $39.95 from Amazon.
An affordable, cute, budget-friendly, all-leather closed toe sandal–that’s the Earth Berri. The insole is cushioned and wrapped in soft microfiber. Elastic stretch loops provide a good fit. Find the Berri in sizes 5-12 for $31-74.99 from Earth Shoes and Amazon.
A twist on the classic fisherman style, the Josef Seibel Rosalie offers a real buckle for adjustment (not velcro!), cushioned footbed with modest arch support, wide toe box with a snug fit at the heel. Available in euro sizes 36-42 (online reviews suggest that the Rosalie runs large) for $102-135 from Zappos, Amazon and Nordstrom.
Take it from a happy Skechers customer who left this review,
“I am so pleased with these sandals! I have horrible feet and surgery made them worse: hammertoes and bunions to both feet. I first wore these to an outdoor wedding and for the first time in decades I felt like I was wearing fashionable shoes!”
Available in sizes 5-11 for $42-55 from Amazon and Zappos.
