When I was in college, I used Amazon to buy one thing and one thing only: textbooks. A lot has changed since then, and I now use Amazon to buy just about anything and everything I might need for myself and my home. Granted, that change was gradual, and there were a few things I held off on for as long as I could — namely clothes, and more specifically shoes. After all, if I couldn’t try them on first, how could I be sure that they fit and were comfort? Fortunately, I finally caved, and after trying a few of the most comfortable shoes on Amazon, I’ll probably never go back to shopping in-store for my footwear again.

Amazon even now allows you to try on some select pairs for free using Prime Wardrobe’s Try Before You Buy — but even without that brilliant feature, it’s easy to find a cute, comfortable pair. For one, the selection, size, and color options are super extensive, so you have plenty to choose from. For another, reviewers are extremely vocal about the shoes they’re obsessed with (and which ones, not so much). Some pairs on this list have earned themselves almost 50,000 ratings, so you know they’re beloved. Finally, if you’re not also obsessed, returns are quick and painless.

In other words, there are zero reasons why you shouldn’t cave like I did; here are some of the best affordable, comfortable shoes Amazon reviewers can’t stop raving about.

1These Running Shoes That Are A Best Seller

The Adidas Cloudfoam Pure 2.0 running shoe has more than 2,200 reviews, an overall rating of 4.5 stars, and a number-one best-selling status in its category. In addition to its 10-plus color options, it also has a lightweight, flexible textile upper, a cushioned insole, a grippy rubber sole, and secure laces, all of which make for a great running shoe. One buyer went so far as to call them the “best shoes on earth” because they’re such a “great value.”
