Shop these podiatrist-approved shoes while they're on sale for Prime Day — up to 60% off our 10 top picks

If you haven't heard, October Prime Day kicked off this morning with huge savings across every single category. While most people flock to Amazon's discounts on luxury brands, tech or travel, there are actually some practical buys we think are worth your time. There are often a surprising amount of deals on shoes and on brands we really love.

Hunting for deals is literally our job so combing through deal after deal in the shoe section is just par for the course. But it can also make you a bit bleary-eyed. That's why we're here to do the dirty work for you. We've curated a list of deals on shoes and sneakers that boast high ratings and reviews from shoppers as well as podiatrist-approved walking shoes that are loved by shoppers and doctors alike. We've included these New Balances that dental assistants (who are on their feet all day long) adore for 20% off.

So get to it! Start browsing our favorite Prime Day shoe deals before the deals run out. If you need more than shoes, don't forget to browse our full list of all the deals you need to shop during Amazon Prime Day today.
