The 7 Most Comfortable Wedges Sandals For Sweaty Feet

Nothing better than wedges to feel comfortable and cute in the summer! But if you deal with sweaty feet, not every wedge works the same way. Leather, suede, and cork breathe better than synthetic materials, which matters because trapped moisture is what causes odor and slipping inside a shoe. To find comfortable wedges for walking, for work, etc. you will want to ensure they are made in natural fabrics (like leather), and have a comfy footbed (in suede, leather or cork for example). Open or strappy wedge designs also help simply because they let more air reach your foot than a fully closed shoe would.

With these criteria in mind, I’ve curated a list of 7 comfortable wedges sandals you can buy on Amazon.

Quick Answers About Wedges and Sweaty Feet

Are leather wedges better than synthetic ones for sweaty feet?
Yes, leather and suede breathe better than synthetic materials, which reduces the moisture buildup that causes odor and slipping.

Does a cork footbed help with sweaty feet?
Cork footbeds help because they’re breathable and mold to your foot, which reduces the friction and trapped heat that make feet sweat more.

Are open or strappy wedges better for sweaty feet than closed shoes?
Yes, open and strappy wedges let more air reach your foot than a fully closed shoe, which helps sweat evaporate instead of building up.
