When it comes to spring, no shoe is more popular than flats. The cute, practical, and classic shoe style is our favorite for the warm weather months. They’re basically every woman’s go-to footwear choice for spring.

No matter how many pairs we have in our closet, we can’t seem to stop buying more flats. Every season stores put out their latest merchandise, and every season we can’t wait to snatch up every single pair. You can’t blame us–flats are so comfortable and easy to wear that it only makes sense to have an ample supply of pairs on hand.

Flats can be worn with just about everything, from dress attire to casual street clothes, so it’s justifiable to have a diverse collection of options that match with everything in your wardrobe. You never know when you might need them, after all!

Fashion expert Jeni Elizabeth told SHEfinds that her favorite shoe of choice is a pair of ballet flats. “[They’re] timeless and amazing! They are fabulous on children, adorable on teens, perfect for the crazy mom, amazing for an office job. The list goes on and on! Every designer you can think of has created some version of the ballet flat so if it’s KEDS or Prada you can find every color and style that fits your lifestyle!”

As much as we love a good pair of heels, and booties will always hold a special place in our hearts, nothing compares to our favorite pair of flats. From slip-ons, to loafers, fashion sneakers, and even slides, you can never have too many pairs.

If you’re looking to build your collection of flats or need to invest in a good pair for spring, these 15 brands revealed their most popular flats–and we guarantee you’re going to want every pair.

Maddy Mule

BP. Maddy Mule ($69.95)

Promising review: "LOVE these mules and they’re so comfy! They run a tad small I’m usually a 5.5 and had to send hem back for a 6! Other than that they’re so stinking cute!"

Classic Canvas Slip-On

TOMS Classic Canvas Slip-On ($47.95)

Promising review: "I love my TOMS classic canvas slip on. They fit true to size for me, allowing for a little stretch after wear. The color is great, and they are comfortable for walking in all day."

Felicia Ballet Flat

Sam Edelman Women's Felicia Ballet Flat ($49.10)

Promising review: "I just received my Sam Edelman Felicia flats. It's by far the most comfortable flats I have ever owned. It was everything that I expected and more. I spent a lot of time researching and reading reviews so I had an idea of what it would be like but once I saw it in person it was such a beauty. I'm in love with this pair."

Smoking Slipper Espadrilles

Soludos Flamingo Smoking Slipper Espadrilles ($65)

Promising review: "Ok. It's a love at first sight, but i did look through all the review and tried this at the store. I'm normally a US size 9, and size 9.5 fits well on me."

Slingback Flats

Steven Lourdes Slingback Flats ($99)

Promising review: "I was worried these might look a bit cheap but was pleasantly surprised. For the price, they exceeded expectations."

Penny Loafers

Sperry Seaport Penny Loafers ($93)

Promising review: "Yes, love. These are slim fitting so were perfect as I have narrow feet syndrome, not always as good as it may sound. Finding shoes to fit can be a real pain. Besides the fabulous neutral tone, the fit is great and comfort level off the charts."

Loafers

H&M Loafers ($34.99)

About the product: Soft loafers with a soft heel section for wear as slip-ons. Leather lining, leather insoles, and rubber soles.

Leather Flat Shoes

ASOS MARCE Leather Flat Shoes ($64)

About the product: Classic brogue detail with lace-up fastening and an almond shaped toe.

Royale Flat

Free People Royale Flat ($198)

Promising review: "These just came in and they're better than I expected! I'm a true size 10 and ordered them in 41 in the color Brown. A little plain, but they're just what I wanted since I was in need of a low heeled everyday shoe that can go with everything. The quality is amazing and I'm glad I ordered the real deal instead of a dupe (even though they're pretty pricey) because they're totally worth it. Now all I need are the white snakeskin ones!!"

Leather Loafer

Naturalizer Saban Leather Loafer ($69.95)

Promising review: "Great shoes. I have very narrow feet and the fact that they come in narrow width is great because I couldn't find any loafers that would stay on my feet. Comfortable and elegant. I consider getting them in another color."

Half d'Orsay Flat

Marc Fisher LTD Sunny Half d'Orsay Flat ($64.97)

Promising review: "This is a stunning color and very stylish shoe. I plan to wear it often. It has a little shine but that makes it really nice too."

Zara Track Sole Brogues with Bow ($59.90)

About the product: Nude flat shoes with a faux patent leather finish. Bow detail on the laces. Platform soles in contrasting colors.

Slingback Flats

Madewell Katrina Slingback Flats ($98)

About the product: We’re obsessed with Madewell slingback flats. Fun and comfy, they're crafted from luxe suede with cushioned leather insoles. The slingback strap is balanced with a chic pointed toe.
