Footwear comfort is a given these days, with many brands incorporating cushioned footbeds with arch support, flexible outsoles and lightweight materials into their designs. But comfort and support don’t have to stop at the front door. As many people continue to work from home and spend their leisure time indoors, slippers have become closet staples (sales for these increased 21% last year compared to 2019, according to The NPD Group Inc., while sales of fashion footwear, including heels, sandals, and boots, declined 27% for the year.). Consequently, more comfort-boosting slipper styles are available to shop than ever before.
This array of arch-supporting lounge footwear is offered in classic clog styles for easy on-and-off wear, plush-styled slippers as well as slide-inspired and thong versions for the warmer months. And they all offer versatile indoor-outdoor soles, making them suitable for at-home wear as well as quick runs to Starbucks.
To simplify your search, we’ve curated a wardrobe of women’s slippers with arch support to take you through your day with ease. After all, in times of uncertainty, a little extra comfort is something many of us crave.
Shop our top picks ahead, from leading comfort brands like Vionic and Acorn to beloved outdoor brands including Sorel.
