Whether he’s walking the green or practicing his swing, Tiger Woods spends a ton of time on his feet as a professional golfer. So it makes sense that he would want to wear supportive and comfortable shoes both on and off the course. And his latest comfy shoe find looks so bouncy and cloud-like that we can’t help but want a pair for ourselves.
Earlier this week, Instagram account @flushingitgolf shared an image of the golfer wearing the Oofos Ooah Slide Sandals in the slate color. The ultra-cushioned sandals feature the brand’s patented OOfoam footbed that cradles and supports arches, making the slides comfortable enough to wear all day. In fact, the footbed is so good for your feet, that it’s earned the shoes an American Podiatric Medical Association Seal of Acceptance.

In addition to being incredibly comfortable, the recovery shoes also feature a rugged rubber outsole that provides ample traction and shock absorption to reduce stress on joints. Plus, the sandals are made from a moisture- and odor-resistant material, making them a great option to wear to the beach, pool, or locker room. According to the brand, the shoes were “designed to soothe and reinvigorate feet after a tough workout” by relieving stress on the feet, knees, and lower back. So it makes sense that a top athlete like Tiger would wear them.

One Zappos reviewer wrote, “The greatest thing I have ever put on my feet. I feel like I’m walking on marshmallows and don’t want to take them off.” Another called them “the best slide out there,” before adding, “The only con is that it makes me hate all my other shoes.”
Even people who suffer from foot ailments rave about how great the slides are. One Zappos shopper with plantar fasciitis called them “magic slippers.” While another customer highlighted that this is a “great shoe for painful heel spurs” since it “takes the pressure off of stinging problem areas.”
