Searching the endless scroll of Amazon shoes for men to find some footwear you can commit to can be a real testament to your eyeballs' endurance. That's where we can help. After endless months of puttering around the house in slippers, you're probably feeling very ready to get back into some real shoes again. You’re feeling so ready, in fact, that you want them now. Soon as possible. Depending on where you are, shoe stores might still be closed, or they just might not be a space you feel like stepping into. This is the moment when Amazon, surprisingly, shines on the fashion front. We've spent hours—maybe days?—wading through the shop to dig up the best menswear, as well as excellent sneakers, boots, loafers, dress shoes, and more on Amazon. If you’re looking to slip into a new pair of summer kicks, we found 22 pairs. From Converse Chuck lows and Adidas Sambas to Blundstone boots and Doc Marten lace-ups, these should be in your footwear arsenal no matter what.
