The year was 2008. Amidst a sea of stuffy comfort shoe offerings, Alegria shoes injected much-needed vitality with their flagship Classic clog. Bright patents, whimsical patterns and bold animal prints caught the eye of women from all walks of life, but what converted them into customers? If you own a pair of Alegria shoes, you know. From medical professionals to educators, city commuters to those in the service industry, all will tell you a similar story: Alegria shoes allow them to do the jobs they love without the fatigue of aching feet.
Watch this short video to learn more about the superbly supportive footbed and other key comfort technologies of Alegria shoes. We think you’ll see why Alegria (“happiness” in Spanish) is a fitting name for the brand.
If you suffer from chronic conditions such as plantar fasciitis, rheumatoid arthritis, hallux rigidus or back pain, Alegria shoes feature ergonomic cork and a latex footbed combined with a rocker sole that may bring the relief you’ve long desired. And not to worry, many styles feature a removable footbed to allow for use of a custom orthotic.
If the classic clog isn’t your style, take a look at four more bestsellers from Alegria.
The Verona is a great option if you prefer a less chunky sandal but still like the feeling of a rocker sole. Three adjustable straps allow for a custom fit. Reviewers like the good arch support and three adjustable straps and also mention the fit is a little wide. Find the Alegria Verona in sizes 5.5-11.5 for $120 from Zappos, Nordstrom and Amazon.
We’re happy to see Alegria shoes finally issue a recovery sandal! Waterproof with excellent arch support, the Ode flip flop features a mild rocker sole to propel the foot through the stride. Fits a narrow to medium width foot best. Find the Alegria Ode in sizes 5.5-11.5 for $59.95 from Zappos and Nordstrom.
Do you work in an industry where you need an easy-to-clean shoe with a slip-resistant outsole? The Keli Pro has all that and more including Alegria Shoes “Perfect Fit” cork, latex and memory foam footbed that’s removable and replaceable. Good news! The Keli comes in wide widths. Available from Zappos, Amazon and Nordstrom.
The sporty Henna sandal joins the Alegria shoes family and we love it!

Great for wide feet, very adjustable!” Find the Alegria Henna in euro sizes 35-42 (5-11.5) for $79.95 from Nordstrom, Amazon, Zappos
