Yep, I've done it: I went through over 50 pages of Nordstrom shoes to find the ones actually worth your time. While I swear by Nordstrom to find all of my favorite trends and seasonal staples, the sheer number of products can be overwhelming. That's why I spent my entire weekend scrolling through Nordstrom's shoe section to find the best pairs instead of going out to dinner or happy hour.
I've rounded up 20 ballet flats, heels, sneakers, and loafers with detailed reviews to browse though, from editor-beloved styles to comfortable yet chic pairs. According to reviews, these are some of the best shoes, period.
Rating: 4.4 out of 5
Pros: Trendy and comfortable for the price point.
Customer review: "These heels are beautiful, comfortable, and perfect for those few occasions when I have to dress up. I rarely wear heels these days but do not hesitate to reach for these when I need to elevate my look."
Rating: 4.3 out of 5
Pros: Well-made and extremely trendy.
Customer review: "Really different and unique shoes. Showstoppers. The unusual heel takes some getting used to but overall comfortable and cool."
Rating: 4.3 out of 5
Pros: Classic and comfortable at a great price point.
Customer review: "These shoes are on-trend, comfortable, and affordable. I have purchased the denim and black snakeskin. Great for work and outside of work!"
Rating: 4 out of 5
Pros: Sleek, comfortable, and perfect for everyday wear.
Customer review: "I was so afraid these would be uncomfortable, but they are great! I haven't worn them yet, but they felt very good straight out of the box. I bought the red and can't wait to wear them for spring and summer. Really cute."
Rating: 4.6 out of 5
Pros: Viral shoes at a fraction of the price of their designer counterpart.
Customer review: "I'm usually not a fan of flat shoes because I have flat feet, but these are actually really comfortable and the fit great. The Sam Edelman brand has great quality, and the style is impeccable."
Rating: 4.6 out of 5
Pros: Editor-loved, classic sneakers that are casual yet chic.
Customer review: "My daughter and I saw these this week at Nordstrom and we fell in love—so we both bought a pair! I wear 7.5/38 normally and that is what I got. The leather is soft and the detail around the laces and on the suede really put it over the top for me. They are great for normal daily wear. I took off one star for a thin sole. Not super cushy but you wouldn’t expect that by looking at them anyway. Still happy with my purchase."
Rating: 4.8 out of 5
Pros: A minimalist's dream with a comfortable, sleek silhouette that's ideal for walking.
Customer review: "These shoes are the most comfortable pair of flats I've ever purchased. Zero break-in period is needed, they are amazing straight out of the box. I'm able to wear them without socks, and they are still comfortable, no rubbing on my heels or pinching toes. The size is true to size. My feet are slightly narrow, and the shoes still fit well. Definitely worth the price!"

Pros: Beloved sneakers that are equal parts trendy and comfortable.
Customer review: "Let me tell you something about this shoes… I love them. They are the perfect mix between old school and classic. Plus, no break-in required. Fit super nicely. True to size."
Rating: 4.4 out of 5
Pros: Sleek Mary Jane ballet flats our editors love.
Customer review: "I normally don't [write] reviews, but I had to do it for these. These are on-trend, and I don't think they will go out of style for a while. I'm usually a size 8 in women's but ordered a half size up in case they were too narrow because I have a wide foot. They [fit] perfectly. If you have narrow feet, I'd say they are pretty true to size. Can't wait to style these! Great price point also. Happy styling."

Pros: These viral Jeffrey Campbell shoes come in a ton of colors.
Customer review: "Love this shoe. Ended up coming back to buy two pairs. I have narrow feet and have trouble with flats, but these were comfortable, soft, lightweight, and stay on perfectly all day. I love and would highly recommend!"
Rating: 4.1 out of 5
Pros: A classic, tried-and-true pair of slingbacks that doubles as a wardrobe staple.
Customer review: "Comfortable and beautiful—what more can you ask for? I wore them all day on my feet, and they are the most comfortable shoes I have."
Rating: 4.5. out of 5
Pros: If it's good enough for Kylie Jenner, this pair is good enough for us. Elegant, simple, and classy.
Customer review: "I have been looking at these Mary Janes for some time. When I first tried them on, I did not think they were going to work. However, after a bit, they become very comfortable. I got the plain black color, and the leather is so soft. There is not a lot of support, but I wore them to work two days in a row, and my feet did not hurt one bit. I usually wear a size 9 in Sam Edelman shoes, and these fit great."
Rating: 4.3. out of 5
Pros: Sporty raffia sandals that the internet can't stop raving about.
Customer review: "I can see why these sandals are super popular. Comfort, quality & style! I am a true to size 8, I read the reviews to size up so I sized up to an 8.5 & they fit perfect! Also, I have a wide foot (not super extremely wide, but wide), and these fit my wide foot perfectly. These are THE sandals of Spring & Summer!"
Rating: 4.7 out of 5
Pros: Classic loafers that will never go out of style.
Customer review: "It's Tory Burch. TB makes some of the [most stylish] and yet comfortable shoes around. TB does it again with these beautiful black classic loafers. Bought them in black and red. Both stunning. Contemplating adding the beautiful tan loafer too."
Rating: 4.1 out of 5
Pros: Beloved sneakers worn by the stylish street style circuit.
Customer review: "Needed a new classic shoe that would match with everything. They're so comfy once you break them in. They're a sundae narrow and very stiff at first, but after 1 day of wear, they fit really well. Honestly I went a half size up after reading the reviews, but after breaking them in, I don't think I needed to, as they're a little bit loose now, and I have to tighten the laces to keep them from slipping. Overall a great purchase and would definitely buy another pair!"
Rating: 4.5 out of 5
Pros: No words necessary—these iconic sandals are known for being extra comfortable.
Customer review: "Love these Birks. They are a play on the classic but with the larger buckle, which just makes them fun! I have a narrow foot, so I find them a tad wide but still cute and comfy. I put them on daily."
Rating: 4.7 out of 5
Pros: Stylish loafer mules that look and feel good.
Customer review: "Beautiful pair of shoes. True to size. Simple yet elegant. Leather is supple. The horsebit buckle is just the right amount of detail. Very comfortable. No breaking-in needed, as these shoes feel like it is customized to your feet. This could be the next walking shoes."
Rating: 4.8 out of 5
Pros: Comfort-first flats that still look incredibly chic.
Customer review: "I have several events to attend but am recovering from a stress fracture in my foot. I took a chance on these based on the reviews, and they did not disappoint. I was on my feet for hours, and the shoes remained comfortable. It's the first pointed-toe shoe that I've been able to wear. Get them if you can!"
Rating: 4.5 out of 5
Pros: The "if you know, you know" sneakers of Nike's expansive offering.
Rating: 4.6 out of 5
Pros: Constantly reached-for shoes editors and the internet love.
Customer review: "These ballet slippers are nicer and much better quality than many I've tried on. I like the square toe, and the buckle is so cute!"
