From a Favorite Things list of the past, these Vionic slipper slides never go out of style. "Talk about cute and comfy," Oprah said. "A flexible midsole, an orthotic footbed, and plush terry cloth fabric? My feet have never been happier."

It's easy to see why these have received the APMA Seal of Acceptance. A flexible midsole absorbs shock to reduce stress on the feet, ankles, and knees, while the anti-bacterial, odor-resistant fabric keeps things fresh. Even better, an adjustable strap closure allows for both a customized fit and an easy on-and-off.
