Stylish, comfortable shoes look like this

I’m Mary Sue Papale, co-founder of BENDY by Ashbury Skies. The BENDY is a stylish comfortable shoes with a lower carbon footprint.

What really makes a shoe stylish is the look of the upper and the material that makes it. There are a ton of comfortable shoes that are just plain ugly. But in my quest to find stylish shoes for long days, I’ve found some specific styles to look out for.

Mary janes

Mary janes are a great choice for a stylish walking shoe. The strap across the top of the foot gives a secure fit while the adjustable band allows it to fit either a high or low instep. With a Mary Jane style, there’s less of a chance that your foot slips out or you accidentally fall or twist your ankle.

Ballet flats

The ballerina flat is chic, comfy, and lightweight. Its minimalist style is easy to pair with just about anything. In your search for cute and comfortable shoes, find a pair of ballet flats with a flexible bottom and cushioned footbed.

Slip-ons

A slip-on is a shoe with a strapless design. Loafers or skate sneakers are the most common example. When shopping for slip-ons, look for those with flexible bottoms and a cushioned footbed. They’re an excellent cute and comfortable shoe that lets you forget all about laces. You’ll never have a problem sliding them on and off when going through airport security.

The BENDY is a slip-on shoe that’s stylish, too. Try it on in your own home!

Lace-ups

Lace-up shoes, like sneakers, are very stable on the feet. They’re adjustable and can fit all instep heights. If you’re after something that’s as comfortable as it is cute, make sure it’s made from breathable materials, comes with adequate arch support, and has lots of cushioning. Check all these boxes and you will instantly have a stylish, comfortable shoe for women.
