Labor Day weekend means end-of-summer getaways, backyard BBQs, and, of course, the season’s best deals. I like to use this as an opportunity to refresh my closet for fall, and my shopping cart wouldn’t be complete without a pair of the most comfortable shoes — Vionic shoes, of course. Luckily, a variety of styles from the brand, which is approved by podiatrists and has even earned a stamp of approval from Oprah Winfrey, are marked down up to 70 percent off during the Amazon Labor Day sale.
So, what makes these shoes so unique? At the center of each pair is an ethylene-vinyl acetate (or EVA) sole to deliver built-in arch support, ensuring full-foot cushioning at every step. Vionic shoes are also equipped with deep heel cups, roomy toe boxes, and flexible uppers for all-around comfort, which is why they are a favorite among travelers. The brand offers everything from sleek loafers to walking sneakers, and they won’t stay on sale for long. Keep scrolling to find our new solemate.
