20 Comfortable Clogs for Embracing the Nostalgic Trend This Summer

Platform heels are just about the only heels I’ll wear, which is why I love the Wooden Puffa Clog from Everlane so much. Featuring gooorgeous suede uppers and a stained wood platform with a three-inch heel, these cuties are just as great for stomping around the office as they are for a night out at a bar. The versatile neutrals are so chic, too.

• Size range: 5–11
• Material: Suede, wood
• Colors: Dark Umber, Black, Canvas, Rum

Glowing Customer Review: “These clogs feel fantastic. The heel is so comfortable. I have a wide foot and was able to wear these without any discomfort. They are very stylish and receive tons of compliments!!!”

I know you’re already familiar with the beloved Birkenstock Boston—but have you seen this new version with a chunky platform?? These lug-sole clogs will give you an extra inch of height, all while boasting the same targeted contouring and cushioning in the footbed as the classic silhouette. And while we love the moody black option, they come in the prettiest summery neutrals that look good with ev-er-y-thing (and will be cooler on feet, too). You’re welcome!

• Size range: 5–12
• Material: Suede, cork
• Colors: Black, Warm Sand, Candy Pink, Faded Lime, Berry Crush, Green Tea, or Dark Tea

Glowing Customer Review: “I have had a zillion compliments on these since I bought them. So comfortable, can throw on with anything!”

Wooden clogs are an old-school classic, but tbh, not all wooden-soled clogs are the best choice for all-day wear. That said, you won’t suffer from sore, achy feet with these gorgeous shoes from Swedish clog brand VERKA, which are made using a lightweight limewood base and pretty matte or patent leather uppers. Oh, and the chic floral cutout uppers?! Say goodbye to swampy feet forever.

• Size range: 4–11.5
• Material: Leather
• Colors: 15+ options

Glowing Customer Review: “Ordered an 8, which is my normal size, and they fit perfectly! Wore them for an entire day at work—without socks—and they were really comfortable. No blisters or rubbing across the top. Love them!”

These clogs really are a ~viiibe~, no? I’m so obsessed with the fun webbing loop detail, the unique scalloped sole, and the adjustable strap across the top (which can be worn around the back of your heel for more stability, btw). You can also choose between soft suede or iridescent textured leather uppers, depending on the look you want.

• Size range: 5–12
• Material: Suede or leather
• Colors: Nova Sand, Black, Omega Taupe, Luminous Lime, or Sea Salt

Glowing Customer Review: “Most comfortable shoe I’ve ever owned. I stand for 9 to 12 hours a day, and I never once felt like they had to be broken in. Best purchase I’ve made this year.”

Slings can be tough: If they’re too loose, you’re risking it all for a twisted ankle. Too tight, and you’d rather go barefoot. These are the Goldilocks of slingbacks, with a clog twist. The sculptural wooden heel gives you that stylish lift without sacrificing walkability, and the slingback strap keeps things secure during rooftop cocktails or power walks to brunch. The peep-toe is a nice summery touch, too!

• Size range: 5.5-10.5
• Materials: Leather, wood
• Colors: Black

Glowing Customer Review: “I had my eye on these for a while, but the cost had me hesitating. Don’t! They are worth it. So cute and really are amazingly comfortable. Bought my true size, did have to tighten the back strap. Love the gold buttons, they snazzy up any outfit. Love these shoes!

Like it or not, the divisive Croc is back and better than ever—and no, these aren’t just for gardening in the backyard. Nowadays, you can wear ’em with with socks! Pair ’em with tights! Jazz ’em up with cute lil Jibbitz charms! The possibilities are truly endless, friends, and the comfort is unmatched.

• Size range: 6–12
• Material: Ethylene-vinyl acetate (EVA)
• Colors: 30+ options

Glowing Customer Review: “I’ve been wearing Crocs forever! They are so comfortable, wear well, and [have] a huge variety of colors to choose from. They clean up super easy. I wear mine for shopping, beach, or pool activities. Even in the winter with socks! Never any issues.”

If the idea of tossing your clogs in the wash sounds like a dream, Rothy’s made it real. These easy-breezy slip-ons are machine washable and sustainably made from recycled water bottles—so your feet (and your conscience) can feel squeaky clean. They’re lightweight, breathable, and cushioned enough to wear all day, whether you're lounging, commuting, or running errands in 90-degree heat. When they get stinky, toss ‘em in the wash and they’ll feel good as new.

• Size range: 5-13
• Material: Recycled knit upper
• Colors: Black, Dune, Jasmine

Yes, Dr. Scholl’s is cool again—Carrie Bradshaw wears them, and that’s the only endorsement we need. These retro-inspired clog-ish sandals feature the iconic wood-look sole without the actual wood (aka: they’re way comfier than the '70s originals). The contoured footbed supports your arches while the adjustable buckle adds a vintage-chic flair. If Carrie rocks ‘em, you know they’re good.

You may know Melissa best for its Possession fisherman jelly sandal, but IMO, the new Cozy Clog deserves just as much hype. It’s made with the same proprietary fruit-scented Melflex PVC as the Possession—plus, it’s got a cushiony insole, fun buckle detail, and amazingly lightweight outsole. No need to worry about clomping around with these!

• Size range: 5–10
• Material: Polyvinyl chloride (PVC)
• Colors: Black, Blue, Green, or Beige

Glowing Customer Review: “Love it. Love the fit, the color, the style. Perfect for work and everyday errands.”

These are the clogs you wear when you want to pretend you’re a laid-back artist living in the West Village (in, like, the 70s, not now…). The delicate woven leather upper adds major texture and breathability, while the chunky platform sole brings just enough height without the hobble. They feel rustic, modern, and effortlessly cool all at once. Pair them with a gauzy dress and gold hoops for peak Stevie Nicks energy.

• Size range: 6-11
• Materials: Leather, wood
• Colors: Merlot, Black, Thistle Pink, Teak, Natural

Glowing Customer Review: “I’m not usually a shoe person, but when I saw these shoes, they really caught my eye. I had ordered a pair and just ordered a second color. They’re super comfortable, the leather is very soft. Would recommend 100%.”

If your Crocs had a cool older cousin, it would be these perforated jelly platforms from Amazon that are currently making the rounds on TikTok. I’m in love with the airy round-toe design, the chic buckle strap, and the chunky two-inch lug-sole platform, which will give you a nice lil height boost.

• Size range: 6–10
• Material: Ethylene-vinyl acetate (EVA)
• Colors: 3

Glowing Customer Review: “I can’t believe how comfortable these are!!! I work 10-hour shifts as a restaurant manager. Normally, my feet are achy, swollen, sweaty, and partially numb by the end of the day. Day one with these shoes my shift was a breeze. No breaking in, no foot pain, no leg cramps, no slips!”

If you love your Stan Smith sneakers, you’re going to really love this new slip-on style. Made with a sugarcane foam material, these chunky cuties will give you a boost with a one-and-a-half-inch-tall cushy foam footbed and soft, spongey insole. Other smart details include the perforations on the sides for ventilation and the patterned tread on the outsole for reducing slips.

• Size range: 5–10
• Material: Sugarcane foam
• Colors: Linen Green, Core Black, Wonder Taupe, Silver Green, Solar Green, or Cyber Metallic

Glowing Customer Review: “PERFECT!! I loved these. My feet are EXCEPTIONALLY wide. But these? They slide right in. These shoes match with my spunky style and all the girlies love them. 10/10 recommend.”

Introducing: my go-to rainy day shoe. Similar to the popular Hunter Play Clog, I prefer the Bodega Clog from SeaVees for its slightly more versatile style, which takes the traditional garden clog and gives it a modern feel with a lugged outsole and cute pull-tab detail in the back. And yep, because they’re made with rubber, they’re ideal for tackling any kind of weather.

• Size range: 5-11
• Material: Natural rubber
• Colors: Fern, Azalea, Salt, Calendula, Bluebell

Glowing Customer Review: “I LOVE these shoes so, so much! When I saw a shoe advertised as ‘part clog, part sneaker,’ I just knew it was for me—and I was right! I love the way they fit, I love the bold, bright color, and I love the ease of slip-on/slip-off.”

Anyone who’s ever worn Dr. Martens knows that they are a pain in the neck to break in, but once they do, they’re a custom, made-for-you shoe. These clogs are no different. The Carlson Mule has a fully adjustable buckled strap and that signature Dr. Martens edge with a rugged sole that supports your stride and a soft leather upper that molds to your foot over time. You’ll want to kill us when you break them in, so sorry in advance. But they’re worth it 1000%.

• Size range: 5-15
• Materials: Leather, rubber
• Colors: Black, Savannah, Warm Sand

Glowing Customer Review: “Next to my Crocs, these are the most comfortable pairs of shoes I own, they’re a staple in my wardrobe.”

Maximalists—these are for you. The Bjork Maja Wood Clogs come in a whole moodboard’s worth of prints—florals, skulls, artsy abstracts—so you can match your shoes to your personality. And they’re under $100. Brb while I add these to my cart.

• Size range: 5.5-11
• Materials: Leather, wood
• Colors: 20+, including Geometric, Splat, and Python

Dansko is known for its ridiculously comfortable, wear-all-day classic clogs, but if you want to switch it up, add these Mary Janes to your cart. The Sam Clog has a retro vibe with modern comfort, thanks to the brand’s signature arch support and shock-absorbing sole. The adjustable strap keeps things secure, so you’re not slipping and sliding around like you would in a flat. And the colors—sage green and light pink—give major cutie vibes.

• Size range: 5.5-12
• Materials: Leather, synthetic wood sole
• Colors: Sage Calf, Pink Calf

Glowing Customer Review: “I love love love this Sam clog. I don't want to wear shoes that are too clog-like or look like I stepped out of a Vermeer painting. These clogs are very comfortable: they have just the right amount of lift/height and have wonderful arch support. I pursued ballet for 20 years and now my feet are paying the price—Dansko is one of about three brands of shoes I can tolerate.”

These Swedish-made stunners strike the perfect balance between structure and breathability. The closed back keeps your heel supported, while the subtle side cut-outs make them feel summer-ready (and prevent swampy toes). They’re handmade with natural wood and leather, and, yeah, are they pricey? Yes. But you’re paying for quality, and these kicks are sure to last.

• Size Range: 5-11.5
• Materials: Leather, wood
• Colors: 10+, including Brown, Black, and Red

Glowing Customer Review: “These took a minute to get used to. Sort of felt like a lil’ baby horse. I’m used to the now, and the yellow color is bright and earthy. I want a collection of them :).”

After a long run or nearly keeling over at Corepower, these clogs are basically a nap for your feet. Designed for post-workout recovery, the Ora Mules are light, cloud-like, and squishy in all the right places. The oversized sole absorbs shock while the rocker design keeps your stride smooth. They may look sporty, but they’re a secret weapon for anyone who schedules their day around the gym (or just loves peak comfort vibes).

• Size Range: 5.5-11.5
• Materials: EVA
• Colors: Wheat, White, Varsity Navy, Vanilla

Glowing Customer Review: “Hoka always knocks it out of the park. Perfect neutral. Perfect comfort.”
