One of the biggest struggles of dressing for the summer heat is finding a pair of sandals that are both stylish and comfortable. From personal experience, any given pair usually only ticks off one of the two boxes. It’s rare to find a shoe that can do both, but shoppers insist Skechers’ BOBS Desert Kiss Low slide sandals fit the bill.
If you’re going for a Hermès slide vibe without the designer price tag, these $50 Skechers sandals have got you covered. They offer more support and cushion than the $840 pair, boasting a Skechers Plush Foam contoured comfort footbed. These affordable shoes not only benefit your feet but also the planet. They’re made from 100% vegan materials, including a vegan leather strap upper, a cork veneer midsole trim, and the aforementioned comfy footbed. The slides also feature a flexible traction outsole, which is perfect for all-day wear and avoiding the slipping and sliding that some sandals (like flip-flops) might bring.

What else do these slides have on the designer pair? They come in wide sizing, which is fab because not everyone can squeeze their feet into Hermès’ leather slides. Choose from sizes 6 through 11, with some half sizes, and five neutral-toned, versatile colorways—white, chestnut, silver, rose gold, and black.
The BOBS Desert Kiss Low are so comfy that they might not even require break-in time. One shopper in the review section raved, “I’ve been looking for an open casual shoe for my very wide foot. I’m tired of wearing unisex flip flops! This is an attractive casual shoe, nice color, cushioned bed. Very easy to wear right out of the box. Something I can wear that has some style.”
Another one wrote, “I have a high instep and it worked great there and LOVE the arch support- feels good and looks good.”
As for the aesthetics, a third reviewer swears they match with almost everything. “These sandals are very versatile can use them with different outfits, casual and going out,” they commented.
Whether you need a comfortable shoe for traveling in Europe or a trendy sandal that lets your feet breathe without causing any aches, trust me, Skechers’ BOBS Desert Kiss Low slide is your perfect match. Stock up on the shoes for just $50 on the brand’s site.
