Cloud slippers (also known as pillow slippers or cloud slides) are just one of the many popular social media trends that TikTok has skyrocketed to fame. If you haven’t heard of the viral shoes, the slides have gained popularity not just for their pillow-like cushioning, but for being a comfortable sandal you can wear year-round, whether you’re lounging at home or traveling to your next concert or festival.
Soft and fuzzy slippers may provide warmth and comfort, but once the weather warms up, it’s like the equivalent of wrapping your feet in a sherpa jacket. That’s why we prefer switching to cloud slippers instead. Putting on a pair of cloud slides won’t just help keep your feet cozy and breathable throughout the day, but they also provide other benefits like waterproofness and year-round wearability. The pillow slippers have a similar style to the classic slides, but come with some major differences that help them rank higher in our books.
What Are Cloud Slippers?
Unlike typical slides and slippers, which can be made with rubber or teak, cloud slippers are usually designed with ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA), which is a foam-like material known for its shock absorption and breathability. It’s also an easy to clean material that requires just water, soap and a rag to wipe clean once dirty. The foam material also offers a bit more support for your feet, so you can wear them throughout the day without worrying about you feet becoming achy.

To help you discover the right style for your shoe rotation, Billboard Shopping went through social media and user reviews to discover the best cloud slippers to buy online. Whether you’re shopping for yourself or need a thoughtful gender-neutral gift, we’ve got you and your feet covered below.
