Arriving “fashionably late” is always better when you turn up looking your best without making everyone wait. These stylish slides kill two birds with one slip-on. They’ll ground your fashion-forward ensemble in a snap. And you’ll leave the house feeling like you own the day. It’s for these reasons (along with many others), that we are officially declaring a versatile pair of slides the quintessential Summer staple. 

Hassle-free and blister-free—sliders are void of backs and buckles. They’ll save your back from bending down. While memory foam slides are renowned for miraculous foot-recovery. But the sumptuous shoes are far more than functional footwear. And while the Adidas comfort slides remain more popular than ever—who doesn’t love a post-workout foot reprieve— a designer pair of leather sliders is a must-have in your capsule wardrobe. 

Cuyana’s Kilifis are everything you need with cushioned soles and feminine flair. Gucci distinguishes itself from other designers with its signature Double G motif. And Axel Arigato has released a pair of pool slides that you won’t be able to live without. They’ll still save your feet and your back. But now they’ll save your day too (rush out in style).

So buckle up (or don’t). It’s time to get yourself a pair of our best slides for women. 

The 20 best slides for women for effortless style

Cuyana Kilifi: Overall best slides for women

best slides women cuyana kilifi review - Luxe Digital

They’re soft, sweet, and endlessly chic. These Cuyana slides tick all our boxes. The ruched detailing speaks to their on-trend feminine nature. While soft buttery leather protects their timelessness and ensures that they’ll never go out of style. Neutral hues of beige or black encourage versatility by pairing well with any Summer ensemble. 

These Cuyana Kilifis are your key to effortless elegance. And they do it all whilst taking care of our environment by using sustainable materials. 

Best for: Modern minimalism with a feminine flair. 

Colors: Black and Beige Materials: Leather

Gucci: Best luxury women’s sliders

best slides women gucci review - Luxe Digital

When we think Gucci, we think glam. And this pair reminds us exactly why by showcasing the iconic logo. The famous soft quilted leather stays true to the brand’s demand for only the highest quality material. While the black hues set the tone for the signature contrasted Double G hardware. The thick strap allows for a more substantial Summer shoe. And the stacked heel is just enough to lift your style. 

Pair these Summer staples with your best oversized sunglasses for the whole designer look. 

Best for: Simple slides made glamorous.

Color: Black Materials: Leather

Nike Victori One: Best value women slides

best slides women nike victori one review - Luxe Digital

Just do it. Nike is famous for its comfortable flats. And these memory foam slides are no exception. They stop just short of running a marathon. And will accompany your long Summer walks in style. The athleisure footwear comes in eleven unique colors. If you can’t decide, we adore the metallic bronze for versatile functionality with a fashion-forward twist. 

These Nike Victory One slides are ready to take you absolutely anywhere. And once you come to rely on these Nike slides (as we do), you won’t be able to look elsewhere. 

Best for: Long walks in the park.

M.Gemi The Clio: Best leather slides for women

best slides women mgemi the clio review - Luxe Digital

Quilted leather is back. And no one does it better than M.Gemi. These stylish slides will give your snug slippers a run for their money in comfort. The soft sock provides extra padding between the sole to cushion your foot. These fashionable footwear come in a variety of hues. Opt for gold, lavender, or white to contrast the black sole for that trendy edginess. Or choose black for monochromatic minimalism. 

These M.Gemi slides are everything that we love about the Italian brand. And you really can’t go wrong when styling. 

Best for: The MVP of functional fashion.

Colors: Black, Champagne Gold, White, Lavender Materials: Leather

Axel Arigato: Best women’s pool slides

best slides women axel arigato review - Luxe Digital

If you’re here for the logomania trend, you’ll go mad for these Axel Arigato’s. The cheeky pair is totally on-trend with a loud black logo. Contrasted with a beige silhouette, they know exactly how to do luxury logos without putting a foot wrong. And the recycled rubber with soft cushioned soles is the perfect excuse to live in slippers all Summer long. 

These cutting-edge slides by Axel Arigato pair well with decadent dresses and cheeky denims. Don’t forget to pack your best designer sunhat and one-piece for the ultimate decadent resort look.

Allbirds Sugar Sliders: Best pillow slides for women

best slides women allbirds sugar sliders review - Luxe Digital

Sugar slides as sweet as honey. But with Allbird’s iconic comfort. The limited buoyant orange is worthy of first mention. They’re not for the faint-hearted. But if you’re a fashion forerunner, you’ll know how to pull these pillow slides off effortlessly. The black and blizzard colorways are equally luxurious for our minimalists at heart. 

The trailblazing brand continues to make moves with its signature sustainable sugarcane SweetFoam materials. And as a result, these Allbirds’ pillow slides  feel like floating on clouds.

Best for: Contemporary designs take on cloud-like comfort.

Colors: Orange, Black, Gray Materials: Sugarcane SweetFoam

Koio: Best beach slides for women

best slides women koio review - Luxe Digital

Known for their Instagrammable sneakers, Koio makes their luxury pairs in the same factories as big designer brands like Chanel and Hermes (minus the price tag). And although these women’s slides are rid of hassling laces and heels—the high-end quality design is just as evident. 

We adore the motif-embossed emerald upper contrasted with black soles on these Koio Elba. But monochromatic black or white pairs are designed for the less-is-more fashionistas. Either way, these beach slides deserve a place in your best travel tote for your next getaway (cue the bookings).

Best for: Branded beachwear. 

Colors: Emerald, Black, White Materials: Leather

Oliver Cabell: Best vegan designer slides for women

best slides women oliver cabell review - Luxe Digital

What’s not to love about these vegan designer slides? They stay true to Oliver Cabell’s signature modern minimalist style. The sleek black color makes them appropriate for your more dressy occasions without losing their signature slide practicality. And the puffer detailing is just enough to set them apart from every other Summer shoe. 

What’s the catch? Nothing. Except that you’d better act fast because these Oliver Cabell’s black slide sandals are limited edition and they’re bound to move quickly.

Best for: Vegan versatility. 

Colors: Black Materials: Leather 

Adidas Adilette Comfort: Best post-workout slide shoes

best slides women adidas adilette comfort review - Luxe Digital

Nothing feels better than resting your fatigued feet in a pair of these Adidas slides after an endorphin inducing workout. While some treat themselves to extra food portions. We treat ourselves to Adilette comfort slides (or both). And what better motivation to get yourself moving?

Adidas is at the forefront of sporty slide fashion. And this pair will blow your socks off (quite literally post-workout). The soft pillowy pair is made with cloudfoam to re-energize your feet. And sleek black hues will see you walking out of the gym in style. 

Best for: Movers and shakers in sporting modish styles.

Colors: Black Materials: Synthetic

Birkenstock Arizona Essentials: Best waterproof rubber slides

best slides women birkenstock arizona review - Luxe Digital

We’d be remiss to leave Birkenstocks out of our list of best luxury slides. But this pair isn’t your typical Arizona. They’re made from waterproof materials to weather subtropical climates, whilst still maintaining the iconic double-strap design. 

These infamous slides come in eleven different colorways. And we think the price excuses multiple pairs. Opt for a vibrant red or popcorn yellow to make a splash. Or stick to what you know with a neutral black, khaki, or white. 

Best for: Conquer wild weather with vibrant hues.

Colors: Red, Black, Yellow Materials: Synthetic

Mansur Gavriel: Most comfortable slide sandals

best slides women mansur gavriel review - Luxe Digital

Best known for their distinctive approach to color and form, these Mignon slides are everything that we love about Mansur Gavriel. The artisanal style slip-on sandal feature leather-knotted uppers, perfect for a casual-chic style. Sky blue and sole orange encourage Summer spontaneity. While black and crema colorways exude timeless elegance. 

Pair these luxe slides with everyday mom jeans to add an air of femininity. Or go wild with color-blocking for a bit of fun. Either way, you’ll look like you know what you’re doing in contemporary circles. 

Best for: Casual color-blocking.

Colors: Orange, Blue and Black Materials: Leather

Alo Yoga: Best faux leather women’s sliders

best slides women alo yoga review - Luxe Digital

Large logos are all the rage this season. And this brand is right on-trend with monochromatic motifs. The sumptuously sporty style embodies chic-casual wear. And the contemporary colors take a lighthearted approach to workout wear with hot pinks and highlighter yellows. But if luminescent footwear isn’t your thing, their black and white slides are eye-catching enough.

These Alo Yoga’s faux leather slides will take you to the studio in style. And, with zen-like cushioning, your feet will never know you’ve left it.

Best for: Stylish meditation. 

Colors: Yellow, Pink, White Materials: Faux leather

Chloe Woody: Best canvas slides for women

best slides women chloe woody review - Luxe Digital

Black graphic lettering on beige canvas embodies the Chole’s avant-garde designs. Set on a tan leather sole with a square toe, these Woody slides are forerunners in timeless trends. And a slight heel is just enough to finish off the look flawlessly. 

These celebrated slides achieve the perfect balance between statement and versatility. And while they’re anything but boring, the neutral color palette fits into any ensemble. 

Best for: Logomania marries effortless elegance.

Color: Beige Materials: Canvas

Castaner: Best espadrille slides for women

best slides women castaner review - Luxe Digital

Merge seamless slip-ons with elegant espadrilles and you’ve got yourself a winning shoe. Castaner has knocked it out of the park once again with their Palmera frayed espadrille slides. Not only are they one of our best slides, but they’re one of our favorite pairs of espadrilles too.

These cute slides are made to wear daily in soft cream or black. While a sparkly pair is a perfect shoe to flaunt on a rooftop bar in the evening (preferably in Barcelona).

As a former model, Anine Bing understands the necessity of comfortable chic shoes. And this pair of designer slides is exactly that. The chunky cross-strap silhouette speaks to the brand’s avant-garde designs. And their distinct fabrics know how to take their place in high-end circles.  

These sumptuous slides come in Gingham wool for a contemporary countryside classic. While a teddy-bear caramel doubles up as slippers. And neutral leathers keep it clean for the minimalists at heart.

Colors: Black, Camel, Cognac + More Materials: Leather

Proenza Schouler: Best black slide sandals for women

best slides women proenza schouler review - Luxe Digital

Your less is more style just got a contemporary update with these Proenza Schouler black slide sandals. The padded leather sole is the epitome of functional fashion. It provides cloud-like comfort while simultaneously adding to the modern design with a symmetrical rounded toe and heel.

The glossy black leather speaks to the shoe’s timeless elegance. While a thick strap contributes towards these more substantial Summer sandals. 

Best for: On-the-go styling. 

Color: Black Materials: Leather

Dior: Best nude slides for women

best slides women dior review - Luxe Digital

Tired of black? Nude slides are a fantastic alternative. They’re just as versatile but a lot softer for those feminine numbers. This pair by Dior has got to be our favorite. The subtle color palette leaves more room for impeccable detailing without appearing over the top. And the brand’s gold signature hardware is the only accessory you need. 

These slides embody effortless sophistication in its simplest form. And they’re the perfect summer shoes to dress up your denims without compromising on comfort.

Best for: Designer decadence.

Color: Nude Materials: Leather

Bottega Veneta: Best square-toe slide shoes for women

best slides women bottega veneta review - Luxe Digital

The square toe is very much still in fashion. And these Bottega Veneta slides are here to make sure of it. The clean-cut design is flawlessly complemented by a soft black quilted leather strap. Baby pink or yellow colorways are here to spice up your wardrobe. While black and white remain a quintessential closet staple. 

These cute slides by Bottega Veneta are set on a tiny block heel to subtly elevate every outfit. And while we love to pair ours with casual denims, they go just as well with flowy florals. 

Colors: Pink, Yellow and Black Materials: Leather 

Axel Arigato Magma Sandal: Best platform designer slides for women

best slides women axel arigato magma sandal review - Luxe Digital

Our list of the best slides for women wouldn’t be complete without a second pair of Axel Arigatos. And these platforms are just the pair to do it. The rounded platform sole takes avant-garde styles to new heights. And with such a distinct design, no other accents are necessary. 

These monochromatic sand slides hardly go unnoticed. So be prepared to be showered with compliments when strutting them around the city streets.

Best for: Contemporary sculptures take the form of platform shoes.

Color: Sand Materials: Bio-based EVA

Saint Laurent: Best women’s slide sandal

Renowned for their impeccable attention to detail, it’s no surprise that Saint Laurent is amongst our most comfortable women’s sandals. And this pair will let you know why.
