Besties, ’tis officially the season for open-toed shoes. And 2023 is the year of the jelly sandal and the flip-flop. Yes, the flip-flop — or thongs, whatever you call them.

While flip-flops have become synonymous with pool days, getting pedicures and casually running errands, they’re now a major summer trend you should be very enthusiastic about. Like, who doesn’t love a flip-flop? Besides orthopedists and podiatrists, of course, but that’s beside the point. Believe it or not, there are a ton of flip-flops out there that work for just about every occasion — and budget.

Scroll below to check out some of the best flip-flops you can shop right now for beach days, getting a pedicure or taking out on the town.
