Best women's slide sandals

Top pick: OOFOS OOahh Slide — the one I'd buy for most people. The OOfoam footbed is genuinely soft underfoot, it's light enough to forget you're wearing it, and it has the deepest track record of any slide here (tens of thousands of ratings). Best for all-day wear, errands and post-workout recovery.

Who the others suit:

• OOFOS OOmega OOlala — extra cushioning and a higher, more sculpted footbed; pick it if you want maximum softness and a bit of lift.
• OOFOS OOahh Sport Flex — adjustable strap and a cupped heel, so it stays put; best if you walk a lot in slides.
• Cloud Slides — thick, squishy one-piece foam with a raised arch; the pick if you want that pillow-soft feel for less.
• Clove SuperCush Recovery Slide — true-to-size, easy slip-on comfort; go up a half size if you're between sizes.
• Dolce Vita Julio Jelly — the dressier, water-friendly option for pool days and warm-weather outfits.
• Sam Edelman Darla — multi-buckle leather-look slide when you want something that reads more polished than sporty.
• Okabashi Cruise — simple, easy-to-clean everyday slide in a full size run.
