Finally something every generation can agree on: These virally popular slides! They've got Gen Z, Gen X, Millennials and Boomers all feeling like they're walking on marshmallows. Use them as restorative house slippers to ease aches and pains, pack a colorful pair on your next vacation to wear around the pool or snag a classic shade to don with jeans for everyday wear. Whatever you do, choose soon, because Amazon has the Joomra Pillow Slippers on sale right now for just $20, down from $36.
Made with wipeable EVA, these cloud slippers have a 1.7-inch thick sole to cushion your feet with every step.
Why is it a good deal? 💰
You can add these top-selling slides to your cart for 43% off — not bad for a pair of versatile kicks you can wear year-round. Slide into them with bare feet right now during the warmer months and, once fall rolls around, pair them with soft and cozy wool socks. Heck, at this price (and they've never gone lower), you can even buy one neutral pair to match everything in your closet and a brighter color for when your feet feel like making a bolder statement.
Why do I need this? 🤔
The cushy comfort these slippers provide comes from their EVA material. The foam soles are stacked at 1.7 inches to put as much cushion between your feet and the floor as possible and absorb impact. They’re designed for safety on all surfaces, with an anti-slip sole to prevent falls on wet or slick floors, and the deep heel cup conceals a part of your foot that may not yet be sandal-ready. (Just us?)
But the biggest pro for Amazon shoppers? They address a variety of aches and pains, especially for older feet that have been around a block or two. In fact, according to Yahoo Deputy Commerce Editor Izabella Zaydenberg, they do ease discomfort, even when wearers are struggling with issues like plantar fasciitis: "Every time I take off whatever shoes I was wearing that day and slip into these, all the tension and pain in my heel just dissipates," she writes.
These pillow slippers sit right at the junction of cute and comfy. (Amazon)
What reviewers say 💬
Amazon shoppers of all ages are wild about these — there are more than 28,000 five-star ratings from verified buyers who gush about how comfy they are.
Pros 👍
"Soft and light! Like walking on air," raved this sure-footed fan. "My foot and lower back pain are gone!"
"Obsessed!" proclaimed another reviewer. "I have a lot of foot pain from years of wearing heels and then stupidly working out on hardwood floors barefoot. These shoes have changed my life! So cozy, such great support. My feet don't ache and my joints seem to hurt less too."
"Insanely comfortable! I've been having problems lately when I'm on my feet too long on my hard ceramic tile at home," shared a dog-tired devotee. "My heels have been cracking, the soles of my feet are killing me and even my knees have been hurting more than usual. These shoes solved all of those problems. They are so soft, with just the right amount of support. I wear them anytime I'm doing housework now and I don't have the pain I was experiencing before."
Many have shared how the Joomra Pillow Slippers became their go-to house shoes. "Finding the right house slippers can be a game of hit or miss, especially when you're looking for something that offers more than just basic comfort," mused one wearer. "[Joomra's] thick sole design is not just about comfort; it's about providing the right amount of support and pressure distribution that helps alleviate pain, particularly around my ankle area where the hardware is."
Cons 👎
Take note: Some shoppers advise sizing down. "These are super comfy, but do run big. Go down one size from your regular size," suggested an otherwise-satisfied customer.
"These aren't snug, well-fitting shoes," griped a final reviewer. "They're meant to be quick and easy and comfy. They probably wouldn't be good to run errands in or go out in, but they're perfect for around the house."
Take your pick of 15 colors, including army green. (In a more adventurous mooood? How about cow print?)
