Once upon a time, strappy kitten heels, eye-catching block heels, and head-turning stilettos weren’t the only options when it came to stylish summer footwear\u2014wedges were a wardrobe must, too.<\/p>\n

While it’s been a hot minute since wedges reigned supreme in the early ’00s, we’re glad to say the comfortable style is back and better than ever. To prove it, we’ve rounded up 10 of our favorite pairs of wedges you can snag right now.<\/p>\n

Whether you wear them with shorts, jeans, skirts, or dresses, you’re sure to earn a compliment or two (plus, you’ll be more comfortable than if you were to wear another type of lifted silhouette, so win-win).<\/p>\n

\"Blue<\/p>\n

Marc Fisher Zeki Espadrille Wedge Sandal $59.99<\/a><\/h3>\n

How pretty are these espadrille sandals? Rather than a matte natural wedge, these four-inch platform wedges feature a shimmery champagne-hued rope that makes them that much more head-turning. While they’re sold in three hues, we’re particular fans of the summery cobalt hue, which is really more of a tropical blue.<\/p>\n

\n

\"Aldo<\/p>\n

Aldo Legaodda Wedge Heel Sandal $85<\/a><\/h3>\n

For a more minimalist silhouette, check out these simple two-strap, three-inch wedges from Aldo. The trendy style is sold in a pretty cognac hue, as well as a pretty summery blue.<\/p>\n

\"Jeffrey<\/p>\n

Jeffrey Campell Appetit Wedge Slide Sandal $139.95<\/a><\/h3>\n

The simple slide silhouette of these wedge sandals makes them one of the most comfortable and versatile styles in this roundup.<\/p>\n

\"Franco<\/p>\n

Franco Sarto Tiana Wedge Sandal $130<\/a><\/h3>\n

Not a fan of ultra-tall wedges (or heels)? These wedge sandals feature a modest 1.38-wedge heel lined with a braided platform. Best of all, the comfy silhouette\u2014which, BTW, is great for walking adventures\u2014is sold in four colors, including bold limeade and aqua hues.<\/p>\n

\n

\"Angel<\/p>\n

Angel Alarcon Flip-Flop Wedge Sandals $145<\/a><\/h3>\n

Flip-flops are another trend from yesteryear currently making their rounds for summer 2021. Pair the thong silhouette with a retro wedge and you have yourself some of the most trendy sandals of the season.<\/p>\n

\n

\"Steve<\/p>\n

Steve Madden Barona Platform Wedge Sandals $109.95<\/a><\/h3>\n

These retro chunky wedge sandals bring back images of the ’70s and<\/em> ’90s. Sold in black, chestnut, and white, they’re the tall neutral silhouette you’ve been hoping for summer.
