Say goodbye to hiding your feet in closed shoes this summer. See our curated collection of bunion-concealing sandals so you can flaunt your footwear with confidence! After all, who wants their bunions to steal the spotlight?

The Sofft Fallon sandal boasts a forefoot strap placement that prioritizes comfort, making it an ideal choice for those with bunions or sensitive feet. The wide straps, crafted from soft leathers and fabrics, gently cradle your foot without causing irritation or discomfort. Find it in sizes 6-11 for $119.95 from Zappos, Amazon and Nordstrom.

Yes, it’s basic. But if you’re recovering from foot surgery as I am ((cheilectomy and bunionette removal) you’re just thrilled to be in anything other than a black surgical shoe. The new Vionic Awaken sandal features enhanced arch support on a massaging footbed and a wide adjustable leather forefoot strap that covers the bunions, bunionettes and/or any surgery scars. Find it in sizes 5-13, medium and wide widths for $90-125 from VionicShoes.com, Nordstrom and Zappos.

I’m thankful Taos keeps this sandal around season after season. It’s got a good thing going with its soft bunion-concealing upper and anatomical footbed with enhanced arch and metatarsal support. The Taos Gift 2 comes in sizes 6-12 for $135 from TaosFootwe ar.com, Zappos and Amazon.

sandals to conceal bunions — Linea Paolo Raylin

This footbed sandal by Linea Paolo conceals bunions while maintaining a chic and contemporary silhouette. Find the LP Raylin in sizes 5-11 for $109.95 from Nordstrom and Amazon.

We love this summer-ready platform slide by Minnetonka. The soft fabric straps and foam footbed provide all-day comfort for aching feet. Find the Posey platform sandal in whole sizes 6-11 for $69.95 from Nordstrom and Amazon.

Surely these aren’t for everyone, but thankfully chunky platform sandals are on trend right now. I wear a size 10 and these do look a bit like clodhoppers on my feet (I tried them on but sent them back). However, on the right feet they look downright cute. The adjustable wide straps cover the bunions while the footbed supports the arches. Find the Ugg Goldenstar in sizes 5-12 for $120 from Ugg, Zappos and Nordstrom.

If slides aren’t your style or you prefer a real buckle to velcro, this platform espadrille sandal is for you. The Earth Hilda features premium leather criss-cross straps, plush insole, 2″ heel with a 1.5″ platform. Find it in sizes 5-12 for $49-99 from EarthShoes.com and Nordstrom.

The Birkenstock Oita is my personal favorite because I rarely wear a different brand in the summertime–Birkenstock support is unparalleled. I love the Oita because the thick adjustable straps cover not only my bunions, but tailor’s bunions too. See my video review here. Find the Oita in euro sizes 35-42 (4-12.5) for $120 from Nordstrom.

Do you have an occasion coming up and you’re perplexed about how to conceal the bunions? The Munro Lee in metallic silver dresses up the feet while covering up imperfections. And it comes in four widths and extended sizes! Available for $195 from Nordstrom and Munro Shoes.

I have a similar wedge slide by OTBT that was discontinued sadly. It was the only heel I could wear without bunion pain. The Spring Step Allerton looks almost the same with its soft leather upper, cushioned footbed and sturdy wedge heel, plus it comes in beautiful colors and neutrals. Find it in sizes 5.5-11 for $99-119.95 from Nordstrom, Spring Step Shoes, and Amazon.
