If you're working out or standing all day at work, your feet can certainly take a beating. It makes it more important than ever to invest in a comfortable pair of best women slippers with arch support that help your body to recover.

And if you're working from home, you might be looking for the perfect house shoe to help to absorb shock from walking on hard, flat floors that won't leave your feet sweating like crazy during summer or cold during winter.

But, if your current at-home shoe choice is no shoes at all, you might want to rethink your barefoot preference.

When you wear a supportive pair of slippers, they can help with shock absorption on hard surfaces. Including wood floors, tile, and marble, to reduce strain on your joints, she explains. What's more, house shoes protect your feet from potential forgeign objects such as splinters and glass. "It is especially important for people with diabetes [specifically diabetic patients with neuropathy] to wear slippers as they can step on a foreign object and not even know."

And just like with your dress shoes and sneakers, there are side effects of wearing ill-fitting slippers. When shopping for a slipper for women, you want to look for qualities such as a platform base, deep heel cup for stability, good arch support to reduce foot pain that comes with conditions such as plantar fasciitis, and a firm yet flexible midsole to help with balance, advises Dr. Brenner. "If you wear flimsy slippers that don't fit properly, the opposite can happen. For example, instability, plantar fasciitis, heel pain, and irritation of bunion and hammertoes," she warns. 

While every slipper is different, but there are several factors that will help determine if it's supportive and comfortable. Generally speaking, it's best to opt for shoes that offer cushioning, whether that be in the sole, lining, or footbed. Some of the most comfortable flip-flops, slides, and heels are built with contoured footbeds. It will mold to your unique arch shape.

Other important details to look out for include rubber soles, which ensure a sturdy and stabilizing stride. and antimicrobial footbeds to repel odors and bacteria. Fans of closed-toe and strappy sandals should check that the upper of their chosen shoe is soft and stretchy and thus won't restrict natural movement. And if you have a wide-set foot, choose slippers with an adjustable strap so you can customize the fit.
