You know that feeling when you suddenly need new shoes, like, now? Not just to fill a gap in your wardrobe, but because you actually want to wear them tomorrow? I know I’m not alone here, folks.
But whether you’re planning to step up your daily walk regimine, finally pulling the trigger on Crocs, just want to snag some fresh kicks for the weekend, there’s good news: With your Amazon Prime membership, you can have a veritable warehouse’s worth of top-rated shoes shipping to your door in record time.
This may or may not be good news for your wallet (or, if you’re like me, your already-busting-at-the-seams closet), but it’ll definitely scratch that “I need it NOW” itch. So go ahead, treat yourself to some instant gratification and start strutting your stuff without the wait. (You deserve it.)

If you’re still not getting the questionably-requisite 10,000 steps a day, maybe some inspirational kicks will get you going. These highly rated walkers are lace-free, come in multiple colors and both wide and regular fits, and have a low profile that works for pretty much anyone. And if you’re of the “I’ll start tomorrow” mindset when it comes to exercise, good news: for Prime members, these can be at your door in just a day. So no more excuses.
Sure you can get a classic Croc delivered in less than 24 hours, but why go basic when you can also get these utilitarian-chic style just as quickly? I asked myself that same question, said YOLO (to myself), and hit “Buy Now” just before typing this. And because they’re unisex, I also got a pair for my husband (in a different color, because being that matchy-matchy might be a bit too much).
You don’t need sore feet to take advantage of OOFOS’s “recovery” sandals. Their proprietary “OOfoam” technology absorbs 37% more impact than comparable foam footwear, protecting not just your feet but your joints and back as well. And depending on your location, they can be delivered in as little as FIVE (!!) hours.
These are pretty out-there, but I think that’s why I like them so much. They also remind me of vintage Oilily (just Google their catalogs from the ‘90s and you’ll see what I mean), which is also bringing me a lot of nostalgic joy. Even if I end up wearing them solely in my backyard, these are definitely a pair that I’ll be happy sporting on the regular.
My mom would call these “interview shoes.” And while they are perfectly suited to impress potential employers, they have a Chanel-y, Parisian vibe that would also look great range of dress codes: jeans (straight leg or barrel cut), shorts, little summer skirts… There are a ton of options here. If you have an outfit that still needs polishing stat, these are a safe bet.
Hey Dude’s deconstructed chukkas have more than 25,000 5-star reviews, and it’s not hard to see why: They’re super lightweight (less than five ounces) and flexible, shaped to support healthy foot positioning, come with a removable memory foam insole, are machine washable — the list goes on. Plus, the majority of their colorways remind me of Baja hoodies, which is just plain fun.
Tretorn is a heritage brand that never seems to get the recognition it deserves (in my opinion), so let’s change that: Not only is the Rawlins lace-up sneaker incredibly comfortable, it has a signature Tretorn logo, coordinated foxing stripe, and vintage T-shaped toe box that combine to make it the epitome of old-school cool. Depending on which of the 11 colors you choose, they can be at your door in as little as 24 hours.
Not that there’s anything wrong with Birkenstocks (I own multiple pairs), but why buy just one pair of name brand Arizonas when you can buy three (at least) of this Cushionaire lookalike for the same price? They have a genuine suede insole that contours to the foot, flexible cork footbed, grippy EVA outsole, and come in 22 different colors and finishes, pretty much all of which can be delivered as quickly as tomorrow.
The flip-flop trend might be flagging at the moment, but they really are a requisite shoe for your summer footwear arsenal. And when you can find a classic style that ships super fast and costs less than $20, there’s really no reason to not have at least one pair in rotation. These Havaianas check all the boxes.
These low cork wedges definitely scream “comfort,” but there’s something about the clean lines, thick straps, and subtly sport bottom that also make them feel very “fashion,” in a self-guided-walking-tour-of-Rome kind of way. I’m partial to the black and the red, but there are 10 other colors to choose from, too.
I’m a big fan of Rothy’s flexible, washable, and intensely comfortable footwear offerings — but I’m not always a big fan of the price point. Amazon brand Frank Mully makes some very (very) similar-looking styles at a fraction of the price. I’m particularly fond of their square and flat offerings; this houndstooth ballet flat in particular. (Note: Shipping times vary depending on style, color, and size — but most ship very quickly!)
While I’ve happily been drinking the sheer shoe Kool-Aid of late, I’m also not at all convinced the trend will be around forever (or even much longer), and have been keeping my financial commitment to a minimum as a result. That's why these floral embroidered, see-through Mary Janes are everything for me right now: They scratch the same itch as the Phillip Lim style they’re clearly imitating, but at an actual 1/10th of the designer price. They can also be on my (or your) feet as soon as tomorrow.
Whether your outfit needs a little zhuzh or you’re just in the mood for a little lift, these simple, single-strap heeled sandals are a no-fuss solution. They come in black and brown, but also metallic hot pink and patent leather green, and they have a thick strap and not-too-high, not-too-low sloped block heel that go with pretty much everything. They’re also affordable and ship in no time.
